Metallurgist Aims and scope

Abstract

Some results are presented from studies of an unconventional process that employs undriven stands to roll sections. This technology has been put to use on the continuous 250/150-6 light-section/rod mill at the Mittal Stil. Krivoy Rog Metallurgical Plant. The current objectives are to make more efficient use of such stands on the single-strand 250/150-6 light-section/rod mill and to experiment with their use on the two-strand 150-1 rod mill at the plant. It has been found that rolling sections with undriven stands can effectively solve numerous technical problems encountered in the production process.
