Abstract: A spraying method and device for a plant for rolling a strip, the plant having at least one rolling stand. The device includes: a pair of working rolls between which the strip runs; a plane perpendicular to the running direction of the strip; at least one pair of supporting rolls for the working rolls; two pairs of bearing rolls, each of the pairs having the rolls thereof substantially symmetrically arranged on either side of the working rolls in a plane substantially parallel to the strip so as to transfer, to the working rolls, a force for maintaining the working rolls in a predetermined position relative to the supporting roll; a support for the bearing rolls in the form of two rows including a plurality of bearing rollers mounted side by side; one or more nozzle systems for spraying at least a portion of the strip and at least a portion of the rolls.

Abstract: The object is to strictly eliminate the difference in offset of work rolls at the upper and lower and left and right of the rolling mill occurring in the kiss roll state before rolling or during rolling and eliminate the problem of warping of the flat products or meander or camber due to the thrust force acting between the work rolls and backup rolls.

Abstract: A rolling mill, which can use work rolls of a smaller diameter for rolling a hard material and a thin strip material, and can decrease edge drops and improve surface gloss, is provided. For this purpose, a rolling mill, which includes upper and lower work rolls (2) as a pair for rolling a strip (1), upper and lower intermediate rolls (3) as a pair for supporting the upper and lower work rolls as the pair, and upper and lower back-up rolls (4) as a pair for supporting the upper and lower intermediate rolls as the pair, is configured such that the upper and lower work rolls as the pair are supported by a plurality of supporting bearings (8a to 8f and 9a to 9f) arranged vertically zigzag on an entry side in a rolling direction, and a plurality of supporting bearings (10a to 10f and 11a to 11f) arranged vertically zigzag on an delivery side in the rolling direction, at positions outward of a rollable strip width, and the plurality of supporting bearings lap over each other vertically.

Abstract: The object is to eliminate the difference in offset of work rolls at the upper and lower and left and right of the rolling mill occurring in the kiss roll state of the zero point adjustment work before rolling or during rolling and eliminate the problem of warping of the flat products or meander or camber due to the thrust force acting between the work rolls and backup rolls.

Abstract: The aim of the invention is to improve known roll stands (10) which are characterized by working rolls (1,2) of various diameters, in such a way that a strip is obtained which is largely free of tensions and undulations, has a desired strip profile superelevation, and can be used approximately universally.

Abstract: A 6-high rolling mill has work rolls which have offsets, relative to the intermediate rolls, such that during operation there is a net horizontal force acting to urge the work rolls into engagement with the support rolls whereby substantially all horizontal support of the work rolls is provided by the support rolls. Support pads are located proximal the rolls' side faces, without exerting any substantial force on the work rolls during operation.
