Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of metal material forming, in particular to a rolling method for optimizing the edge drop of non-oriented silicon steel. BACKGROUND

[0002] Edge drop is a common problem encountered in the manufacturing process of cold-rolled silicon steel, and as the requirements for product quality continue to improve, the research and application of edge drop technology have also attracted increasing attention, involving a variety of process technologies that are constantly developing and innovating. One common process technology is the hydraulic bending roll system, which compensates for the bending of the work roll to reduce the thinning of the edge of the strip, while effectively improving the flatness of the product. However, in applications such as cold-rolled silicon steel, the effect of traditional bending roll compensation technology is relatively limited. In order to solve the problem of edge drop, the emergence of new generation high-tech rolling mills has gradually attracted attention, among which the HC rolling mill based on intermediate roll shifting is widely used. Through the shifting operation of the intermediate roll, harmful contact with the work roll is eliminated, reducing the deflection and flattening deformation of the work roll. At the same time, in combination with the bending operation of the work roll, control of the plate crown is achieved, and through the use of a smaller diameter work roll, the impact on edge drop is also reduced. Another common technology is the single taper work roll transverse shifting technology, which moves the tapered section of the work roll inward to compensate for the flattening deformation of the edge caused by the roll gap. At the same time, the shifting of the work roll and the intermediate roll reduces the contact between the backup roll and the work roll, thereby reducing the harmful bending moment generated by the roll on the strip. In practical applications, the single taper work roll transverse shifting technology often uses an optimized taper shape to achieve smooth transitions and improve the control effect of edge drop. There are other technologies, such as taper work roll transverse shifting and cross technology, work roll transverse shifting technology, and work roll local strengthening cooling technology, which have certain effects in reducing the edge drop of the strip, but each has some limitations. Therefore, in actual applications, steel enterprises will select appropriate edge drop process technology and equipment according to product requirements and process characteristics to improve product quality and production efficiency.

[0003] In summary, the development of cold-rolled strip edge drop technology has made certain progress, and technologies such as hydraulic bending roll systems, HC rolling mills, single taper work roll transverse shifting technology, and PC rolling mill cross technology are widely used and continuously innovated and improved to meet the requirements of high-quality products. Despite some technical and process challenges, with further research and technological progress, edge drop technology is expected to be further improved and bring more efficient and high-quality product solutions to the steel industry.

[0004] The paper "Research and application of EVC roll shape design and edge drop control model of cold rolled silicon steel" improves the edge thinning area of the strip, reduces the strip thickness difference and improves the qualified rate of electrical steel by using reasonable EVC roll shape and corresponding edge drop control model. However, the paper does not mention the specific cold continuous rolling process system and the process parameter value range of the work roll shifting.

[0005] The invention patent CN201410143167.3 provides a method for controlling the edge thinning of cold rolled strip by asymmetric shifting of work roll, but does not provide specific work roll shifting amount and important rolling parameter range.

[0006] The invention patent CN202010897197.9 provides a high-silicon non-oriented electrical steel and a production method thereof, which can prevent cold rolling breakage and achieve continuous high-speed rolling, thereby improving the efficiency of cold rolling production. However, the invention does not mention improving the edge drop of silicon steel products, and there is no related process system of work roll shifting in the given rolling parameters of cold continuous rolling.
