Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application belongs to the field of strip rolling technology, and particularly relates to a control method, device, medium and electronic equipment for strip rolling in a pickling line. Background Technology
[0002] In recent years, pickling lines have become increasingly popular due to their advantages such as low cost and low energy consumption. Pickled products have a bright surface and can be directly galvanized without the need for cold rolling, thus reducing processing costs.
[0003] In actual production, although a leveling process is performed, the amount of scrap, substandard, and downgraded products generated when using pickled steel as a substrate for hot-dip galvanizing is significantly higher compared to when using cold-rolled strip steel for hot-dip galvanizing, resulting in a lower product yield. In-depth analysis revealed that the key issues leading to hot-dip galvanizing quality problems lie in the surface roughness of the pickled products and subtle differences such as small pits on the surface after the oxide layer is removed.

[0026] Figure 1 A flowchart illustrating the control method for strip rolling in a pickling line according to an embodiment of this application is shown. This control method for strip rolling in a pickling line can be executed by equipment with computational processing capabilities in the pickling line. (Refer to...) Figure 1 As shown, the control method for strip rolling in this pickling line includes: Step 101: Obtain the strip information to be rolled and the production line information of the pickling line; Step 102: Determine the target rolling force of the strip based on the strip information, and determine the target unit speed of the pickling line based on the production line information; Step 103: Determine the rolling force adjustment time for the rolling force adjustment operation based on the current rolling force and the target rolling force, and determine the deceleration adjustment time for the positioning deceleration operation based on the current unit speed and the target unit speed; Step 104: Based on the rolling force adjustment time and the deceleration adjustment time, control the pickling line to simultaneously complete the rolling force adjustment operation and the positioning deceleration operation.
[0027] This application acquires information about the strip steel to be rolled and the production line information of the pickling line; determines the target rolling force of the strip steel based on the strip steel information, and determines the target unit speed of the pickling line based on the production line information; determines the rolling force adjustment time for the rolling force adjustment operation based on the current rolling force and the target rolling force, and determines the deceleration adjustment time for the positioning deceleration operation based on the current unit speed and the target unit speed; and controls the pickling line to simultaneously complete the rolling force adjustment operation and the positioning deceleration operation based on the rolling force adjustment time and the deceleration adjustment time. In other words, by establishing an intelligent collaborative control mechanism between rolling force and unit speed, the surface uniformity and roughness of the pickled sheet are improved, zinc flow marks quality defects in the subsequent hot-dip galvanizing process are reduced, and product quality stability and yield are improved.
[0028] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the method proposed in this application, in conjunction with Figure 2 A brief description of the pickling line in this application is provided. Figure 2 A schematic diagram of a pickling line scenario applicable to embodiments of this application is shown, such as... Figure 2 As shown, the strip steel 20 to be rolled is placed in the pickling tank 21 to remove surface iron oxide scale. The leveling mill support roll 22 provides rolling force under the action of a hydraulic cylinder, and the rolling force is applied to the strip steel through the work roll 23 to improve the surface uniformity of the strip steel. At the same time, the work roll 23 generates bending force under the action of a bending cylinder to improve the strip steel profile after rolling. The leveling mill front tension roll 24 and the leveling mill rear tension roll 25 work together to tighten the strip steel and maintain the strip steel tension during the rolling process. The processor 26 contains a computer program to complete the process of adjusting and controlling the rolling force and bending force in this application.
[0029] For example, in the pickling line, work rolls with a roughness of ≤2.5um are used. Based on the strength and width of the steel grade, the action of a cold rolling mill is simulated to significantly increase the unit rolling force, and finally increase the total rolling force to a maximum of 8000KN. The surface uniformity of the strip is improved by the larger rolling force.
[0030] Under the aforementioned high rolling force, the weld seam will crack, leading to weld strip breakage. Therefore, a reduced rolling force mode is required to pass through the weld seam. Through numerous experiments, it was found that reducing the rolling force to 3000KN and simultaneously reducing the unit speed to a maximum of 150 meters per minute can ensure that the weld seam passes through the leveling machine smoothly without breaking the strip, while also ensuring the overall operating efficiency of the unit.
[0031] To reduce the occurrence rate of mid-waves and improve the rolling effect under higher rolling forces, a working roll crown of 60μm is adopted in the diameter direction. The bending roll force is given according to 10%-15% of the total rolling force. At the same time, the bending roll force is automatically matched and adjusted with the rolling force to ensure good strip shape under higher rolling forces and through the weld section.
[0032] Under the aforementioned high rolling force, the strip steel thins significantly. Therefore, the thickness compensation value needs to be designed in advance for the next hot rolling process to eliminate the thinning caused by the increased rolling force, and the thinning thickness should be controlled within 50μm.
[0033] In the embodiment provided in step 101, the strip steel to be rolled is hot-rolled strip steel (steel coils that have had their surface oxide layer removed by pickling but have not been cold-rolled) that is about to enter the leveling and rolling process of the pickling line. In related technologies, the surface of the pickled strip steel has problems such as tiny pits and uneven roughness, which directly affect the quality of subsequent hot-dip galvanizing. Moreover, compared with traditional cold-rolled strip steel, its microstructure is looser, and its surface condition needs to be improved through special rolling processes.
[0034] Optionally, in this embodiment, the strip information mentioned above is a data set used to characterize the physical properties and process requirements of the strip, which may include, but is not limited to, basic parameters, mechanical properties, surface condition, and weld information. The basic parameters may include, but are not limited to, steel grade (e.g., 450GD), width (e.g., 1500mm), and thickness (e.g., 2.0mm). The mechanical properties may include, but are not limited to, yield strength and tensile strength (key factors determining unit rolling force). The surface condition may include, but is not limited to, roughness after pickling (e.g., ≤2.5μm) and the degree of oxide layer removal. The weld information may include, but is not limited to, weld location and welding process type (affecting the speed reduction strategy when passing through the weld).
[0035] Optionally, in this embodiment, the aforementioned production line information is a data set reflecting the real-time operating status of the pickling line, which may include, but is not limited to, equipment parameters, process status, location information, and control parameters. The aforementioned equipment parameters may include, but are not limited to, the crown of the leveling machine's work rolls (e.g., 60μm) and the maximum pressure of the hydraulic cylinder (e.g., 8000KN). The aforementioned process status may include, but is not limited to, the current unit speed (e.g., 300 m / min) and the tension roll pressure. The aforementioned location information may include, but is not limited to, the real-time distance between the weld seam and the leveling machine. The aforementioned control parameters may include, but are not limited to, the positioning ramp rate (e.g., b = 0.4 m / s) and the rolling force adjustment rate (e.g., a = 3000 KN / s).
[0036] In the embodiment provided in step 102, the target rolling force is an optimal rolling pressure value dynamically calculated based on the strip characteristics. It is applied to the work rolls via a hydraulic cylinder to induce plastic deformation in the strip, thereby improving surface quality.
[0037] Optionally, in this embodiment, after the strip head is leveled, determining the target rolling force of the strip based on the strip information may include, but is not limited to, adjusting the rolling force according to a high unit rolling force for high-strength steel and a low unit rolling force for low-strength steel, based on the current strip's steel grade, thickness, width, and other information.
[0038] While determining the target rolling force for the strip, the target bending roll force can also be determined based on the strip information. According to the current information such as the steel grade, thickness, and width of the strip, for high-strength steel grades, the rolling force is adjusted according to the high unit rolling force, and the bending roll force is adjusted according to the first percentage of the actual rolling force; for low-strength steel grades, the rolling force is adjusted according to the low unit rolling force, and the bending roll force is adjusted according to the second percentage of the actual rolling force, with the first percentage being higher than the second percentage.
[0039] Taking high-strength steel grades of 450GD and above, and low-strength steel grades of below 450GD as examples, with a high unit rolling force of 5.2KN / mm and a low unit rolling force of 4.7KN / mm, and a first percentage of 10-20% and a second percentage of 10-15%, the rolling force is adjusted according to a unit rolling force of 5.2KN / mm for high-strength steel grades of 450GD and above, and the bending roll force is adjusted according to 10-20% of the actual rolling force. For steel grades of below 450GD, the rolling force is adjusted according to a unit rolling force of 4.7KN / mm, and the bending roll force is adjusted according to 10-15% of the actual rolling force.
[0040] Optionally, in this embodiment, the target unit speed is the optimal production line operating speed set to adapt to the needs of different process sections. The target unit speed can be determined by, but is not limited to, by presetting the optimal production line operating speed, or it can be updated based on the real-time operating status of the production line.
[0041] In the embodiment provided in step 103, the current rolling force can be directly measured by a pressure sensor. The rolling pressure (unit: kN) applied to the strip is adjusted in real time by a hydraulic cylinder via the work rolls through a rolling force adjustment operation.
[0042] Optionally, in this embodiment, the current unit speed can be measured by an encoder. The unit speed is adjusted according to a preset rule before the weld reaches the leveling machine via a positioning and speed reduction operation.
[0043] Optionally, in this embodiment, the rolling force adjustment time is the time required to adjust the rolling force from its current value to the target value. The speed reduction adjustment time is the time required to reduce the speed from the current speed to the target speed.
[0044] In one embodiment of this application, the pickling line can be controlled to simultaneously perform the rolling force adjustment operation and the positioning deceleration operation based on the rolling force adjustment time and the deceleration adjustment time in the following manner: determining a first execution timing of the rolling force adjustment operation and a second execution timing of the positioning deceleration operation based on the rolling force adjustment time and the deceleration adjustment time; controlling the pickling line to perform the rolling force adjustment operation based on the first execution timing, and controlling the pickling line to perform the positioning deceleration operation based on the second execution timing.
[0045] Optionally, in this embodiment, the first execution timing mentioned above is the starting moment of triggering the rolling force adjustment operation, which needs to meet any of the following conditions: time condition, that is, the remaining time from the weld to the leveling machine = rolling force adjustment time; position condition, that is, the distance from the weld to the leveling machine = dynamically calculated rolling force adjustment point.
[0046] Optionally, in this embodiment, the second execution timing is the starting moment of triggering the positioning and speed reduction operation, which needs to meet any of the following conditions: time condition, that is, the remaining time from the weld to the leveling machine = speed reduction adjustment time; position condition, that is, the distance from the weld to the leveling machine = speed reduction distance.
[0047] It should be noted that the methods for determining the first and second execution timings mentioned above are based on the production line architecture. That is, when the pickling line adjusts the production process based on time, it needs to meet the corresponding time conditions; and when the pickling line adjusts the production process based on distance detection, it needs to meet the corresponding distance conditions.
[0048] Optionally, in this embodiment, when the rolling force adjustment time is greater than the deceleration adjustment time, the rolling force adjustment is initiated immediately (first execution timing), and a deceleration operation is triggered at a time after the time difference between the two (second execution timing); conversely, if the rolling force adjustment time is less than the deceleration adjustment time, the speed is immediately reduced (second execution timing), and the rolling force is adjusted again after a time difference (first execution timing); if the two times are equal, the rolling force adjustment and deceleration operations are executed synchronously. This timing control strategy ensures that the rolling force and speed are precisely matched when the weld passes through the leveling machine by dynamically coordinating the order of the two parameter adjustments, thereby resolving the contradiction between the risk of strip breakage and production efficiency under high rolling force.
[0049] In an embodiment of the present application, the first execution timing of the rolling force adjustment operation and the second execution timing of the positioning speed reduction operation can be determined based on the rolling force adjustment time and the speed reduction adjustment time, but not limited to the following methods: If the rolling force adjustment time is greater than the speed reduction adjustment time, determine the current moment as the first execution timing, and determine the first expected moment after the current moment passes through the first time as the second execution timing, where the first time is the difference between the rolling force adjustment time and the speed reduction adjustment time; If the rolling force adjustment time is less than the speed reduction adjustment time, determine the current moment as the second execution timing, and determine the second expected moment after the current moment passes through the second time as the first execution timing, where the second time is the difference between the rolling force adjustment time and the speed reduction adjustment time; If the rolling force adjustment time is equal to the speed reduction adjustment time, determine that both the first execution timing and the second execution timing are the current moment.
[0050] Optionally, in this embodiment, the execution order is determined by directly comparing the numerical relationship between the rolling force adjustment time T1 and the speed reduction adjustment time T2: When T1 > T2, start the rolling force adjustment immediately and start the speed reduction after a delay of (T1 - T2); When T1 < T2, first reduce the speed and then adjust the rolling force after a delay of (T2 - T1); When they are equal, execute synchronously. Compared with the distance trigger method that requires real-time tracking of the weld position, this solution only relies on time parameter calculation and has the advantages of simple implementation and small computational complexity, especially suitable for production scenarios with stable speeds.
[0051] In one embodiment of this application, the pickling line includes a leveling mill support roll. The first execution timing of the rolling force adjustment operation and the second execution timing of the positioning and deceleration operation can be determined, but is not limited to, based on the rolling force adjustment time and the deceleration adjustment time, in the following manner: obtaining the current distance between the weld seam of the strip and the leveling mill support roll as the first distance; if the rolling force adjustment time is greater than the deceleration adjustment time, determining the first execution timing as when the distance between the weld seam and the leveling mill support roll is equal to the first distance, and determining the second execution timing based on the rolling force adjustment time, the deceleration adjustment time, the current mill speed, and the target mill speed, wherein... The second execution timing occurs after the first execution timing. If the rolling force adjustment time is less than the deceleration adjustment time, the second execution timing is determined to be when the distance between the weld and the leveling machine support roll is equal to the first distance. The first execution timing is determined based on the rolling force adjustment time, the deceleration adjustment time, the current unit speed, the target unit speed, and the positioning ramp rate of the pickling line, wherein the first execution timing occurs after the second execution timing. If the rolling force adjustment time is equal to the deceleration adjustment time, both the first and second execution timings are determined to be when the distance between the weld and the leveling machine support roll is equal to the first distance.
[0052] Optionally, in this embodiment, the current distance between the weld seam of the strip and the support roller of the leveling machine is obtained as the first distance; If the rolling force adjustment time T1 is less than the speed reduction adjustment time T2, then the positioning speed reduction operation is performed first. The rolling force adjustment point is indicated by the distance between the weld seam and the leveling machine, and is determined by the formula. Calculate the second distance, where, The current unit speed, For the target unit speed, To determine the ramp rate; If the rolling force adjustment time T1 > the deceleration adjustment time T2, the rolling force adjustment operation is performed first, and the positioning deceleration control is performed when the predetermined positioning point is reached. The rolling force adjustment point is represented by the distance between the weld seam and the leveling machine using the formula. Calculate the second distance, where, This is the first distance; If the rolling force adjustment time T1 equals the speed reduction adjustment time T2, the rolling adjustment operation and the positioning speed reduction operation are executed simultaneously.
[0053] Optionally, in this embodiment, by real-time monitoring the current distance (the first distance) between the strip weld and the temper mill backup roll, the execution timing of rolling force adjustment and the unit speed reduction is dynamically determined: when the rolling force adjustment time is greater than the speed reduction adjustment time, the rolling force adjustment is immediately started (the first execution timing) when the weld reaches the first distance, and then the speed reduction operation timing is calculated according to the speed parameter (the second execution timing); otherwise, the speed reduction operation (the second execution timing) is triggered first and then the rolling force adjustment is started after a delay (the first execution timing); if the two times are equal, they are executed synchronously.
[0054] Compared with calculating the execution sequence based on the pure time difference, the distance-triggered method converts the time difference into a spatial distance trigger and realizes dynamic adjustment by real-time tracking the weld position. It can better adapt to the speed fluctuation condition, has higher control accuracy but requires adding a position detection system. Through the coupled control of spatial coordinates and time parameters, while ensuring process safety, the length of the transition section is shortened by 18%, further improving the production efficiency.
[0055] In the embodiment provided in step 104, by dynamically coordinating the timing relationship between the rolling force adjustment time (T1) and the speed reduction adjustment time (T2), the efficient collaborative control of the pickling line is achieved: when T1 > T2, the rolling force adjustment operation is immediately started, and the positioning speed reduction operation is triggered after a delay of (T1 - T2); when T1 < T2, the positioning speed reduction operation is first executed, and the rolling force adjustment is carried out after a delay of (T2 - T1); if T1 = T2, the two operations are executed synchronously. This two-parameter collaborative control strategy based on the time difference, by precisely matching the timing relationship between the rolling force adjustment and the unit speed change, not only ensures the surface quality of the strip under high rolling force (up to 8000 KN), but also avoids the risk of strip breakage in the weld section (speed ≤ 150 m / min), shortens the length of the transition section, and significantly improves the production efficiency and product yield.
[0056] In an embodiment of the present application, the pickling line includes a temper mill backup roll, a work roll, and a hydraulic cylinder. The work roll is arranged between the temper mill backup roll and the strip, and the hydraulic cylinder is used to apply the rolling force to the strip through the work roll. The pickling line can be controlled to perform the rolling force adjustment operation and the positioning speed reduction operation based on the first execution timing and the second execution timing in the following ways, but not limited to: when the first execution timing arrives, control the hydraulic cylinder to perform the rolling force adjustment operation through the work roll; when the second execution timing arrives, control the pickling line to perform the positioning speed reduction operation.
[0057] In one embodiment of this application, the rolling force adjustment time of the rolling force adjustment operation can be determined based on the current rolling force and the target rolling force in the following manner: obtaining the current rolling force and the positioning ramp rate; calculating the rolling force difference between the current rolling force and the target rolling force; and determining the ratio of the rolling force difference to the positioning ramp rate as the rolling force adjustment time.
[0058] Optionally, in this embodiment, the total rolling force (i.e., the current rolling force) = unit rolling force × strip width. If the width of the incoming strip is 1500mm, the total rolling force F1 can be calculated as 5.2 × 1500 = 7800KN. The ramp rate for adjusting the rolling force (i.e., the positioning ramp rate) is a = 3000KN / s. Therefore, the predetermined adjustment time for the rolling force (i.e., the rolling force adjustment time) is... .
[0059] It should be noted that the process of determining the rolling force adjustment time can be performed by a rolling force reduction model established based on the currently used rolling force, or by the processor based on a simple mathematical model.
[0060] In one embodiment of this application, the deceleration adjustment time for a positioning deceleration operation can be determined based on the current unit speed and the target unit speed in the following manner: acquiring the current unit speed and the deceleration ramp rate; calculating the speed difference between the current unit speed and the target unit speed; and determining the ratio of the speed difference to the deceleration ramp rate as the deceleration adjustment time.
[0061] Optionally, in this embodiment, if the current unit speed V1 = 300 m / min, the final weld seam passes through the leveling machine at a speed of V2 = 150 m / min, the positioning ramp speed is b = 0.4 m / s, and the deceleration time is... The deceleration time T2 is calculated to be 6.25 seconds. If the current unit speed is 180 meters per minute, with the same positioning ramp rate b, the required deceleration time T2 is calculated to be 1.25 seconds.
[0062] It should be noted that the process of determining the aforementioned deceleration adjustment time can be executed by the weld positioning model established based on the current unit speed, or by the processor based on a simple mathematical model.
[0063] In one embodiment of this application, the pickling line further includes a work roll, which includes a leveling machine support roll, a work roll hydraulic cylinder, and a bending roll cylinder. The work roll is deployed between the leveling machine support roll and the strip. The hydraulic cylinder is used to apply rolling force to the strip through the work roll. The work roll generates bending force under the action of the bending roll cylinder. In the process of controlling the hydraulic cylinder to perform the rolling force adjustment operation through the work roll, the method may, but is not limited to, the following: controlling the bending roll cylinder to perform the bending roll force adjustment operation through the work roll, wherein the bending roll force adjustment time of the bending roll force adjustment operation is equal to the rolling force adjustment time.
[0064] Table 1
[0065] Optionally, in this embodiment, the bending roll force output value is adjusted accordingly during the rolling force adjustment process based on the bending roll force following model. Adjustment coefficients as shown in Table 1 are applied for strips of different widths. Simultaneously, the bending roll force F2 adjustment time T3 is kept consistent with the rolling force adjustment time T1, i.e., T3 = T1, and the bending roll force adjustment rate is dynamically calculated. This allows for the synchronous adjustment of bending force and rolling force.
[0066] Optionally, in this embodiment, when the weld seam is detected to have passed 0.5 meters through the leveling machine, the rolling force is restored to the normal value according to the slope rate, and the bending roll force is simultaneously restored to the normal value according to the dynamically calculated bending roll force adjustment rate c. When the rolling force and bending roll force are uniformly restored to the normal value, the unit automatically speeds up production.
[0067] To help those skilled in the art better understand the above-mentioned control method for strip rolling in pickling lines, the following will be combined with... Figure 3 To explain, Figure 3 A flowchart illustrating the control process of strip rolling in the pickling line according to an embodiment of this application is shown, such as... Figure 3 As shown, the strip rolling process in the pickling line can be controlled, but is not limited to, through the following methods: Step 301: Obtain information on the strip steel to be rolled and the production line information of the pickling line; Step 302: Determine the target rolling force and target bending roll force based on strip steel information, and determine the target mill speed based on production line information; Step 303: Determine the rolling force adjustment time based on the current rolling force and the target rolling force, determine the speed reduction adjustment time based on the current unit speed and the target unit speed, and determine the rolling force adjustment time as the bending roll force adjustment time of the bending roll force adjustment operation; Step 304: Determine the execution sequence of the rolling force adjustment operation and the positioning speed reduction operation based on the rolling force adjustment time and the speed reduction adjustment time; Step 305: Perform the rolling force adjustment operation and the positioning speed reduction operation in the order of rolling force adjustment operation and positioning speed reduction operation, and perform the bending roll force adjustment operation while performing the rolling force adjustment operation; Step 306: After detecting that the weld has passed through the leveling machine, the rolling force and bending roll force are restored synchronously, and the positioning control is terminated. The unit continues high-speed rolling.
[0068] The above process improves the uniformity of the strip surface, achieving the same effect as strip that has undergone cold rolling. This reduces quality defects such as zinc flow marks during subsequent hot-dip galvanizing, ensuring smooth production on the hot-dip galvanizing line. Simultaneously, it reduces the length of defects in the transition section before and after the weld, ensuring the strip shape, lowering scrap output from the pickling line, and controlling production costs.

The system includes: a material information acquisition module, a positioning control module, a rolling force adjustment module, and a bending roll force following control module.
[0070] The material information acquisition module is used to acquire information such as the steel type and specifications of the strip currently being rolled and the next coil to be rolled, and at the same time, to acquire the real-time distance from the head of the next coil to the leveling machine, and to calculate the remaining time based on the current speed.
[0071] The positioning control module is used to calculate the distance required for deceleration in real time based on the actual operating speed of the unit and the preset speed value that the unit should reduce to when the weld is at a fixed position point away from the leveling machine, and to obtain the first deceleration point and the first deceleration time.
[0072] The rolling force adjustment module calculates the first rolling force reduction point based on the rolling force reduction model and the current actual rolling force, and continuously adjusts the rolling force setting value according to the predetermined slope speed until the actual rolling force is reduced to the predetermined value.
[0073] The bending roll force following control module adjusts the set value according to the actual rolling force application and the bending roll force control model. During the process of reducing rolling force through the weld, the setting value of the bending roll force is continuously adjusted according to the predetermined model to match the rolling force application value.
