[0023] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present application more clear, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, but not all the embodiments. Based on the described embodiments of the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor are within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0024] Unless otherwise defined, the technical terms or scientific terms used in the present application should be understood as the usual meaning understood by those skilled in the art in the field to which the present application belongs.

[0025] The following are embodiments of the present application, and the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments of the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor are within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0026] Through the research and practice of the inventor, in the thin strip continuous casting process, the sources of foreign matter pressing on the surface of the thin strip mainly have the following four factors:

[0027] (1) Influence from oxides in molten steel;

[0028] (2) from the core water pipe material impact;

[0029] (3) from the heat box and other equipment on the impact of the scale;

[0030] (4) from the roll box area of the oxide effect.

[0031] Based on the above research, the present application in order to control the foreign matter of thin strip steel surface into, using the following technical means:

[0032] I, the molten steel smelting aspect:

[0033] First, the refining furnace oxygen blowing amount is preferably controlled in 15-18m 3 , so as to avoid the problem of excessive oxygen blowing in molten steel.

[0034] Second, the tundish molten steel quantity is controlled to be more than 15t, so as to avoid the problem of slagging caused by low liquid level.

[0035] Finally, this aspect also includes: control the slag of ladle, when the ladle is casting the remaining 15t, the ladle worker checks the site and closes the ladle slide in time when the slag is found.

[0036] II, the atmosphere control aspect of hot box:

[0037] The nitrogen flow and air usage of hot box are strictly controlled during production:

[0038] The nitrogen flow of hot box cannot be less than 2500m 3 / h;

[0039] The total flow of compressed air of No. 3 hot box:

[0040] When rolling 1.2mm or more specifications, the flow is less than 100m 3 / h;

[0041] When rolling 1.2mm or less specifications, the total flow is not more than 350m 3 / h.

[0042] III, the rolling oil flow aspect:

[0043] The rolling oil flow is strictly controlled during production:

[0044] The rolling oil flow is not more than 150cc / min.

[0045] This means can effectively avoid the problem of too much oil mud at the inlet and outlet of the rolling mill caused by too much rolling oil, and improve the quality of thin strip steel.

[0046] Alternatively, the control of foreign matter intrusion on the surface of thin strip steel can be optimized from the aspects of equipment body cleaning and management.

[0047] IV. Equipment body cleaning:

[0048] First, after each shutdown, the mill inlet sealing frame, anti-wrinkle rolls, and rolling mill rolls need to be inspected and cleaned.

[0049] Secondly, after each watering stop, it is necessary to check for leaks in heating boxes No. 2 and No. 3. If leaks are found, they should be handled by a fitter or the regular shift liquid handling line.

[0050] Secondly, each time the roller box is changed or maintenance is performed, the iron oxide under the No. 3 hot box roller conveyor needs to be cleaned.

[0051] V. Management aspects:

[0052] Firstly, during the production process, it is necessary to inspect the surface of the strip steel on the post-rolling roller conveyor platform, and to randomly check for foreign objects pressed into the surface and pits.

[0053] Secondly, it is necessary to conduct spot checks on the surface quality on site. If three consecutive rolls are found to have obvious foreign objects pressed in or pits, the casting process should be stopped immediately after the furnace is completed for inspection and treatment.

[0054] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of the present invention. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make several improvements and modifications without departing from the principle of the present invention, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
