Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to a method for eliminating block drop in the lettering area of a UF roll for a steel rail, and belongs to the technical field of steel rolling methods in the metallurgical industry. BACKGROUND

[0002] During the production of a steel rail, a hot-rolled mark is rolled at the rail waist position of the steel rail by a hot-rolling method. The height, depth, and spacing of the hot-rolled mark are clearly required in the relevant production standards of the steel rail. When a steel rail is produced by a steel rail production plant, the required hot-rolled mark is concavely engraved at the rail waist position of the finished roll. After the steel rail is hot-rolled by the finished roll, a clear hot-rolled mark can be hot-rolled on the rail waist of the steel rail. Since the rail head of the steel rail is bitten into the roll for an instant, the position where the steel rail contacts the roll cannot be fixed, and the phenomenon that the rail head of the steel rail collides with the lettering area of the roll occurs. Since the rail head is reciprocally rolled into the roll in the rolling mill, it is greatly affected by the cooling water, and the temperature of the rail head and tail is low. At the same time, there are edges on the edges of the lettering font of the roll. After the collision of the two, the edges of the lettering font of the roll are easily dropped, which will cause abnormal protrusions near the hot-rolled mark of the rail waist of the steel rail, the hot-rolled font is not clear, and the production requirements cannot be met. At this time, the rolling line needs to replace the UF roll, which seriously affects the product quality and production efficiency of the steel rail. SUMMARY

[0036] In practical application, the present application comprises the following steps:

[0037] (1) each time the UF roll 1 is replaced, the starting point of the roll lettering area A1 is placed at the lowest point in the rolling direction, and the system takes this point as the calibration zero point K0;
