Tensioning/Braking Arrangements TRIZ Cases
- Diagonal Weld Seams for Continuous Metal Strip Rolling
Twisting strip ends before welding creates diagonal seams that spread rolling loads, reducing weld tearing and scrap in continuous strip processing.
- Diagonal Weld Seams in Metal Strip Lines to Prevent Breakage
Twisting strip ends before welding creates a diagonal seam that spreads rolling load, reducing strip breakage and waste in metal strip lines.
- Stepped Rolling Line Tension Control for Precise Thickness Transitions
Linear-drive tension feedback keeps strip stress constant during speed changes, enabling shorter stepped-rolling transitions and better thickness control.
- Hydraulic Dancer Roll Control for Stable Strip Tension in Flexible Rolling
A hydraulic dancer roll with accumulator-backed pressure control stabilizes strip tension during high-speed flexible rolling and improves thickness consistency.
- Hydraulic Dancer Roller Control for Stable Strip Tension
A hydraulic accumulator and dancer roller stabilize strip tension during flexible rolling despite rapid speed and thickness changes.
- Stepped Rolling Strip Tension Control With Dancer Roller Positioning
A dancer roller with position control absorbs rapid thickness changes in stepped rolling while the winding reel maintains stable outlet strip tension.
- Roll Stand Tension Control During Stepped Strip Rolling
A low-inertia strip accumulator roller unit supplements the upcoiler to keep outfeed tension stable during rapid thickness changes.
- Cold Rolling Mill Strip Feed Paths for Induction Preheating
Alternating short and long strip feed paths enables induction preheating of brittle steel strip while limiting off-gauge length and heater damage.
- Cold Rolling Mill Strip Feed Paths for Induction Preheating
An alternate longer feed path enables induction preheating of brittle steel strip before rolling, reducing cracks without increasing off-gauge length.
- Contactless Electromagnetic Braking for Rolling Mill Bars
Electromagnets induce eddy currents to decelerate rolling mill bars, preventing shape deformation and reducing energy consumption.
- High-Pressure Descaling for Steel Plate Uniformity
A high-pressure water descaler removes scale from steel plates to ensure uniform surface conditions.
- Steckel Mill Integral Unit Design for Length Reduction
Merging driver, shear, and looper into one unit reduces overall mill length while maintaining processing capability.
- Reversible Rolling Mill with Intermediate Reeling for Strip Processing
Intermediate reeling enables continuous welding of cut strip ends, maintaining productivity while reducing investment costs compared to tandem mills.
