Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of bar shearing technology, and more particularly to a method and apparatus for producing full-length bars. Background Technology
[0002] This section is intended to provide background or context for the embodiments of the invention set forth in the claims. The description herein is not an admission that it is prior art simply because it is included in this section.
[0003] Bar stock is one of the main products of the steel industry. For a long time, bar stock products have mainly included rebar bars and round bars, which are widely used in construction, bridges, transportation, machinery, metal products and other industries. Large-diameter bars are mainly produced using ordinary bar production lines, while small-diameter bars are usually produced by ordinary bar cutting or by single-line production on high-speed bar production lines or by double-line production on double-high-speed bar production lines.
[0004] Bar stock is generally delivered in straight, fixed lengths, typically 6m, 9m, 12m, etc. During bar production, factors such as billet length, quality, temperature fluctuations, mill roll gap wear and adjustments, and tension variations between stands prevent bars from consistently achieving full length on the cooling bed, frequently resulting in non-standard length bars. The presence of non-standard lengths necessitates dedicated workstations (4-6 people) in the bar workshop's collection area to handle these tasks, leading to high labor intensity and disrupting the fully automated production process in the collection area. This requires significant manual operation, impacting production rhythm. Furthermore, shorter non-standard lengths may prevent them from passing through the cold shear and falling automatically into the scrap chute, requiring multiple shearing operations at the cold shear tail. These factors significantly reduce production efficiency.
[0005] To address the issue of non-standard length, some steel companies have adopted a technology of using fixed-weight cutting in the continuous casting process upstream of the bar mill. This has improved the situation to some extent, but the process from continuous casting to bar rolling involves multiple steps and two workshops, with many influencing factors. Factors such as the length measurement error of the continuous casting billet, the weighing error, the burn-out of the heating furnace, and the adjustment of the rolling line tolerance all affect the non-standard length and cannot completely solve the problem. Summary of the Invention
[0006] This invention provides a method for producing full-length bars to solve the problem of non-standard length in bar production lines, thereby improving production stability and efficiency. The method includes:

[0016] The length prediction module is used to calculate the predicted length of the finished product based on the total pulse value and the pulse equivalent.

[0021] This invention also provides a computer program product, which includes a computer program that, when executed by a processor, implements the above-described method for producing full-length bars.

[0032] This invention provides a method for producing full-length bars, such as... Figure 1 As shown, it includes:
[0033] Step 101: Set up hot metal detectors upstream and downstream of the bar multiple length flying shear and obtain the distance between the hot metal detectors;
[0034] Step 102: Calculate the pulse equivalent of the rolling mill based on the distance between the hot metal detectors;
[0035] Step 103: Collect the pulse count value of the rolling mill motor encoder. Calculate the actual length of the finished product based on the pulse count value and pulse equivalent. Obtain the number of rolling mills in the rolling mill unit and the stand pulse coefficient of each rolling mill.

Based on the number of rolling mills, the stand pulse coefficient of each rolling mill, and the total pulse count of the motor encoder between the biting and throwing of steel in each in-use rolling mill, predict the total pulse value of the rolling mill motor encoder.
[0036] Step 104: Calculate the predicted length of the finished product based on the total pulse value and pulse equivalent;
[0037] Step 105: Obtain the multiple length and fixed length, and remove the multiple length and fixed length from the predicted length of the finished product to obtain the non-fixed length;
[0038] Step 106: Cut the tail of the bar stock upstream of the multiple-length flying shear according to the non-standard length.
[0039] The full-length bar production method provided in this embodiment of the invention can completely solve the problem of full-length bar production line with a small investment. It can be used in both ordinary bar production lines and high-speed bar production lines. After the system is put into operation, the operating expenses of the collection area can be greatly reduced, and the production stability and efficiency can be greatly improved.
[0040] Figure 2 This is an example diagram illustrating the calculation of mill pulse equivalents provided in an embodiment of the present invention, such as... Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment of the invention, the pulse equivalent of the rolling mill is calculated based on the distance between the hot metal detectors, including:
[0041] Step 201: Obtain the pulse count difference between the hot metal detectors, and calculate the first-cut pulse equivalent based on the pulse count difference between the hot metal detectors and the distance between the hot metal detectors;
[0042] Step 202: Obtain the pulse count difference and distance between the shearing point and the downstream hot metal detector. Calculate the non-first-cut pulse equivalent based on the pulse count difference and distance between the shearing point and the downstream hot metal detector.
[0043] Step 203: Calculate the average value of the pulse equivalent of the first cut and the pulse equivalent of the non-first cut, and use the average value as the pulse equivalent of the rolling mill.
[0044] In practice, each shear cut of the bar multiple length flying shear generates a shear blade closure point signal (shear point). A hot metal monitor (HMD_1, HMD_2) is set up upstream and downstream of the bar multiple length flying shear. The pulse equivalent of the first shear cut is calculated using the distance between HMD_1 and HMD_2 (HMD1_2) and the pulse count difference (Cnts1_2) between the finished mill encoders of HMD_2 and HMD_1.
[0045] The first-cut pulse equivalent LPP1 = (HMD1_2) / (Cnts1_2); where HMD1_2 is the distance between HMD_1 and HMD_2, and Cnts1_2 is the pulse count difference.
[0046] The pulse equivalent after the first cut is calculated based on the distance from the shearing point to the post-shear hot metal detector (HMD2) (HMD2_CPT) and the pulse count difference (CntsHMDx) between HMD2 and the finished mill encoder at the shearing point.
[0047] After the first cut, the pulse equivalent LPPx = (HMD2_CPT) / CntsHMDx; where HMD2_CPT is the distance from the shearing point to the post-shear hot metal detector (HMD2), and CntsHMDx is the pulse count difference of the mill encoder.
[0048] This yields the instantaneous pulse equivalent of the rolled piece before each shearing cut, enabling real-time and accurate measurement of the rolled piece length.
[0049] Figure 3 This is an example diagram illustrating the predicted total pulse value of a rolling mill motor provided in an embodiment of the present invention, such as... Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment, predicting the total number of pulses from the mill motor based on the actual length of the finished rolled product includes:
[0050] Step 301: Obtain the number of rolling mills in the rolling mill unit and the stand pulse coefficient of each rolling mill. During the rolling process, record the total pulse count of the motor encoder between the biting and throwing of steel in each stand of the rolling mill.
[0051] In practice, the encoder count of the mill motor in use is recorded at the moment the tail of the rolled piece leaves the hot metal detector (HMD0) upstream of the flying shear upstream of the finishing mill. Based on the principle of equal flow rate per second, the encoder count of the mill motor for each stand in the finishing mill unit has a linear relationship, calculated using the following formula:
[0052] ki=Cw1 / Cwi
[0053] Cir=Cwi -Ci_0
[0054] in,
[0055] i represents the number of the finishing mill in use, i=2,3,..., the last finishing mill is numbered i=1, the second to last finishing mill is numbered i=2, and so on;
[0056] ki is the pulse coefficient of rack i;
[0057] Cir is the increment of the motor encoder pulse count from the moment the tail of the rolled piece leaves the upstream hot metal detector HMD0 of the upstream flying shear of the finishing mill to the moment the i-stand finishing mill throws the steel;
[0058] Cw1 is the total value of the encoder pulses of the finishing mill motor between the head and tail of the finished roll passing through the hot metal detector HMD1 at the finish mill exit.
[0059] Cwi is the total value of the encoder pulses of the motor between the steel biting and throwing of the i-stand finishing mill;
[0060] Ci_0 is the encoder count value of the i-th finishing mill motor that has been put into use at the moment when the tail of the rolled piece leaves the upstream hot metal detector HMD0 of the upstream flying shear of the finishing mill.
[0061] Step 302: Based on the number of rolling mills, the stand pulse coefficient of each rolling mill, and the total pulse count of the motor encoder between the steel biting and throwing of each in-use rolling mill, predict the total pulse value of the rolling mill motor.
[0062] In practice, the total pulse value Cnts_F1_p of the rolling mill motor is calculated using the following formula:
[0063] Cnts_F1_p = (C2_0 + C2r) k2 +(C3_0+C3r) k3+...+(Ci_0+Cir) ki) / (N-1)
[0064] In the formula,
[0065] i represents the number of the finishing mill that is put into operation, i=2,3,..., the last finishing mill is numbered i=1, the second to last finishing mill is numbered i=2, and so on;
[0066] ki is the pulse coefficient of rack i;
[0067] k2 is the pulse coefficient for two racks;
[0068] k3 is the pulse coefficient for 3 racks;
[0069] Ci_0 is the encoder count value of the i-stand finishing mill motor that has been activated at the moment when the tail of the rolled piece leaves the hot metal detector HMD0 upstream of the flying shear upstream of the finishing mill. This count value is cleared to 0 on the rising edge of the steel bite signal of this stand.
[0070] C2_0 is the encoder count value of the two finishing mill motors that have been put into use at the moment when the tail of the rolled piece leaves the hot metal detector HMD0 upstream of the flying shear upstream of the finishing mill.
[0071] C3_0 is the encoder count value of the three finishing mill motors that have been put into use at the moment when the tail of the rolled piece leaves the hot metal detector HMD0 upstream of the flying shear upstream of the finishing mill.
[0072] Cir is the increment of the motor encoder count from the moment the tail of the rolled piece leaves the upstream hot metal detector HMD0 of the upstream flying shear of the finishing mill to the moment the i-stand finishing mill throws the steel;
[0073] C2r is the increment of the motor encoder count from the moment the tail of the rolled piece leaves the upstream hot metal detector HMD0 of the upstream flying shear of the finishing mill to the moment the steel is thrown out of the second finishing mill.
[0074] C3r is the increment of the motor encoder count from the moment the tail of the rolled piece leaves the upstream hot metal detector HMD0 of the upstream flying shear of the finishing mill to the moment the steel is thrown out of the 3rd finishing mill;
[0075] N represents the number of finishing mills put into operation.
[0076] In one embodiment, the predicted length of the finished product is calculated based on the total pulse value and the pulse equivalent, including:
[0077] Calculate the self-learning compensation value for the predicted length;
[0078] Based on the total pulse value and pulse equivalent of the rolling mill motor, the predicted length self-learning compensation value is added as an influencing factor to calculate the predicted length of the finished product.
[0079] In practice, the following formula is used to predict the finished product length Lw:
[0080] Lw = Cnts_F1_p LPP_avr +Lw_adj
[0081] Wherein, Cnts_F1_p is the predicted total pulse value of the finishing mill for this steel strip; LPP_avr is the average value of the pulse equivalent measured according to 1); Lw_adj is the self-learning compensation value for the predicted finishing length, calculated as follows:
[0082] Lw_adj = (L_F1 - Lw) / Nf
[0083] in,
[0084] L_F1 is the actual total length of the finished precision-rolled product, which is the sum of the lengths of each multiple length.
[0085] Lw represents the predicted total length of the finished finished product.
[0086] Nf represents the number of filtering iterations.
[0087] In one embodiment, removing multiple lengths and fixed lengths from the predicted length of the finished rolled product to obtain a non-fixed length includes:
[0088] Obtain the multiple length, and calculate the final multiple length based on the predicted length of the finished rolled product and the multiple length.
[0089] Obtain the fixed length, and predict the non-fixed length based on the final multiple length and the fixed length.
[0090] In practice, the length L_tb of the final segment should be calculated using the following formula:
[0091] L_tb = Lw - INT(Lw / Lb) Lb
[0092] Where Lb is the multiple length; INT(Lw / Lb) is the predicted finished length divided by the multiple length and then rounded down, where Lw is the predicted finished length.
[0093] Predict the non-standard length L_nd of the final segment using the following formula.
[0094] L_nd = L_tb - INT(L_tb / Ld) Ld - Lb_add
[0095] Where Ld is the fixed length; Lb_add is the additional length of the multiple length, used for cutting the head and tail lengths of the flying shear; L_tb is the length of the last multiple length; and INT(L_tb / Ld) is the last multiple length L_tb divided by the fixed length and then rounded down.
[0096] Calculate the upstream fly shear tail length L_TCUT of the finishing mill using the following formula:
[0097] L_TCUT =L_nd V1 / V2
[0098] Where V1 is the upstream speed of the finishing mill; V2 is the exit speed of the finishing mill.
[0099] By using the predicted non-standard length as the tail length and sending the tail length to the upstream flying shear of the finishing mill, the non-standard length can be eliminated, thus achieving full-length production.
[0100] This invention also provides a bar stock full-length production apparatus, as described in the following embodiments.
