[0032] While the application has been shown and described with reference to certain specific embodiments thereof, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes in form and details can be made therein without departing from the spirit and scope of the application. Therefore, the scope of the application should be determined not by the embodiments disclosed herein, but by the broadest language of the appended claims and their equivalents, and the foregoing description is

[0033] It is to be understood that the drawings are to be used only as a illustrative purpose and that they do not represent according to the number, shape and size of components in actual implementation, and the type, number and proportion of components in actual implementation can be changed arbitrarily, and the layout type of components can be more complex.

[0034] In the following description, numerous details are discussed to provide a more thorough explanation of the embodiments of the present invention. However, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the embodiments of the present invention may be practiced without these specific details. In other embodiments, well-known structures and devices are shown in block diagram form rather than in detail to avoid obscuring the embodiments of the present invention.

[0035] For ease of understanding, the relevant contents of the present invention are first described below.

[0036] Rolling mill precision is the basis for ensuring efficient and stable production. Wear of rolling line equipment or excessive precision will cause the rolled piece to become stuck, affecting the deformation of the rolling mill and causing the rolled piece's external dimensions to exceed the standard, thereby affecting the passability of the rolled piece and causing abnormal deformation of the rolled piece, which will directly affect the rolling efficiency and product quality.

[0037] There are many channel-type precision control points, and the measurement methods, cycles and standards are different. Through manual management, it is difficult to accurately track each point, cover the wear conditions of all control points, and achieve accuracy recovery before exceeding the standard.

[0038] Mill window accuracy requires periodic measurement of mill window dimensions and adjustments based on the measured data. Because multiple mill stands are involved, the amount of window data required is large, and multiple measurements are required for each plane. This makes it difficult to accurately track the dimensions of each window and the changing trends in precision dimensions.

[0039] It can be seen that there are many rolling mills in the existing hot coil production line, and there are many precision points (i.e. measurement items, i.e. control points) that need to be controlled. Usually, a few key points are selected for control. It is impossible to fully cover all control points. The most common hot rolling mill group includes 2 roughing mills and 7 finishing mills. Each stand needs to measure the upper and lower working sides, and the upper and lower transmission sides, a total of 4 surfaces, and each surface needs to measure 5 points, a total of 180 data need to be recorded; the original manual data processing is labor-intensive and inefficient;

[0040] See also Figure 1 , Figure 1 FIG. 1 is a structural diagram of a rolling mill precision management system according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1 As shown, in an exemplary embodiment, the rolling mill precision management system includes:

[0041] The measurement item information management module 110 is used to manage the production line, area, and equipment (e.g., rolling mill number, F1) to which the measurement items belong, as well as multiple accuracy indicators associated with the measurement items. The measurement items include window-type measurement items in the rolling mill and channel-type measurement items in the rolling line.

[0042] The precision standard management module 120 is used to manage the upper limit and lower limit of each precision indicator;

[0043] The measurement data management module 130 is used to manage the multiple measurement values ​​of each of the accuracy indicators;

[0044] The accuracy evaluation module 140 is configured to compare the multiple measurement values, upper limit values, and lower limit values ​​of each of the accuracy indicators to obtain an evaluation result of each of the accuracy indicators.

[0045] The rolling mill precision management system in the embodiment of the present invention can record the measurement data and evaluation results of each cycle, so the multiple measurement values ​​of each precision indicator mentioned above can be multiple measurement values ​​of each precision indicator in each measurement cycle. The number of the above measurement values ​​can be defined, for example, five.

[0046] In some embodiments, as Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the accuracy standard management module 120 is also used to manage the standard value of each accuracy indicator.

[0047] The present invention, by providing a measurement item information management module 110, can centrally manage information on window-type measurement items and channel-type measurement items. The accuracy standard management module 120 can centrally manage the upper and lower limits of each accuracy indicator. The measurement data management module 130 can centrally manage multiple measurement values ​​for each accuracy indicator. The accuracy evaluation module 140 can automatically generate evaluation results for each accuracy indicator. Thus, the present invention, by providing a rolling mill accuracy management system, facilitates comprehensive coverage, efficient processing, and trend tracking of all measurement items.

[0048] In one embodiment of the present invention, the measurement data management module 130 is further configured to generate an average measurement value according to multiple measurement values ​​of each accuracy indicator.

[0049] In one embodiment of the present invention, the accuracy evaluation module 140 is specifically configured to compare the average measurement value, the upper limit value, and the lower limit value of each of the accuracy indicators to obtain an evaluation result of each of the accuracy indicators.

[0050] like Figure 4 As shown, if the average value exceeds the limit, it can be directly determined as unqualified.

[0051] In one embodiment of the present invention, the measurement data management module 130 is also used to manage the number of gaskets at the entrance and exit of each rolling mill, the compensation thickness of the entrance and exit, the deviation between the upper operating side and the upper transmission side, and the deviation between the lower operating side and the lower transmission side.

[0052] The measurement data management module 130 of the embodiment of the present application can record the measurement time while recording the above data.

[0053] In an embodiment of the present application, the precision evaluation module 140 is further configured to:

[0054] determine a gasket deduction for each rolling mill according to the number of gaskets at the inlet and outlet of each rolling mill;

[0055] determine a compensation thickness deduction for each rolling mill according to the compensation thickness at the inlet and outlet of each rolling mill;

[0056] determine a deviation deduction for each rolling mill according to the deviation between the upper operating side and the upper driving side and the deviation between the lower operating side and the lower driving side of each rolling mill;

[0057] determine a uniformity deduction for each rolling mill according to the multiple measurement values of each precision index and the corresponding average measurement value in each rolling mill;

[0058] determine a comprehensive precision score of each rolling mill in the selected period based on the gasket deduction, the compensation thickness deduction, the deviation deduction and the uniformity deduction of each rolling mill in the selected period.

[0059] The following provides a specific example to illustrate how to determine the comprehensive precision score.

[0060] a. Gasket deduction: increase 1 gasket block (inlet + outlet), deduct 1 point. If one side increases n blocks more than the other side, deduct n points in addition.

[0061] b. Compensation thickness deduction: increase 1 mm of compensation thickness (inlet + outlet), deduct 1 point, and less than 1 mm is calculated as 1 point.

[0062] c. Deviation deduction: deviation from the operating side to the driving side ≥0.5 mm, deduct 2 points, and the upper and lower deductions are added together.

[0063] d. Uniformity deduction: any one measurement value of the same precision index - average measurement value ≥0.5 mm, deduct 1 point.

[0064] e. Rolling mill score: one rolling mill full score is 100 points, and the actual score = 100 - sum of deductions.

[0065] f. Data query: the corresponding deduction can be queried according to the time period, and the comprehensive precision score of the rolling mill is automatically generated.

[0066] In an embodiment of the present application, the system further comprises:

[0067] The measurement time reminder module 150 is configured to generate the time until the next measurement of each accuracy indicator according to the last measurement time and measurement period of each accuracy indicator.

[0068] like Figure 4 As shown, the last measurement time (ie, measurement date) and the time until the next measurement (days) can be automatically recorded.

[0069] In one embodiment of the present invention, the measurement time reminder module 150 is further configured to generate an alarm when the time from any of the accuracy indicators to the next measurement is less than a preset threshold.

[0070] In one embodiment of the present invention, the system further includes:

[0071] The trend correction module 160 is used to correct the measurement cycle and processing plan according to the change trend of the measurement value of each accuracy indicator.

[0072] The present invention can achieve full coverage of all precision control points of the rolling line, ensure that all control points are measured and evaluated within the cycle range, provide technical management personnel with dimensional change trends, and formulate reasonable precision maintenance plans; through the precision quantitative evaluation of the rolling mill, the state of the rolling mill can be effectively grasped, basically eliminating the stability of the rolling mill. The transformation of steel piling has been realized from tracking equipment status to all-weather rolling of difficult-to-roll products.

[0073] The above embodiments are merely illustrative of the principles and effects of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Anyone skilled in the art may modify or alter the above embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, any equivalent modifications or alterations made by one of ordinary skill in the art without departing from the spirit and technical principles disclosed herein are intended to be covered by the claims of the present invention.
