Strip Rolling Machine
A strip rolling machine is a specialized industrial system designed for precision manufacturing of metal strips from round wires or bars. The process involves feeding the material through a series of 2-Hi rolling mills, followed by steps such as annealing, polishing, and wire take-up, ensuring high-quality and accurately shaped metal strips for various applications.
Key Components of Strip Rolling Machine
A strip rolling machine consists of several essential components designed to shape and reduce the thickness of metal strips with precision. The rolling mill stands are equipped with 2-Hi rolling rollers and Turks head rollers, typically made of hardened steel and configured in setups like two-high or four-high. The strip feeding mechanism ensures smooth and accurate feeding, while the control system, often CNC-enabled, manages speed, pressure, and alignment for optimal performance. A cooling and lubrication system minimizes friction and prevents overheating, enhancing durability and efficiency. The thickness measurement system provides real-time adjustments to maintain precise dimensions.
For collecting the processed strips, a coiler or take-up system is employed, while built-in safety features such as guards and sensors ensure secure operation. To meet diverse customer requirements, we offer customized wire take-up equipment and straightening and cutting machines for cut-to-length operations. Additionally, a laser online measuring instrument can be integrated to provide real-time, synchronous measurements of the strip’s width and thickness. These components work seamlessly to deliver high-quality rolled strips tailored for various industrial applications.
Wire Payoff Machine
The CRM-SP Model Strip Rolling Machine is equipped with an Overhead Payoff Machine, a system designed to suspend wire spools above the production line for seamless vertical wire feeding. This innovative configuration is particularly well-suited for operations that require efficient use of space or rely on vertical wire alignment.
Key Features and Advantages
- Space Optimization: The overhead design minimizes floor space usage, making it ideal for compact production environments.
- Adaptability: Perfectly suited for handling lightweight to medium-sized spools, ensuring smooth and consistent feeding performance.
Straightening Machine
The straightening machine is strategically placed between the wire pay-off machine and 2 Hi rolling mill, playing a pivotal role in the production process. Its primary function is to straighten the inlet wire, ensuring perfect alignment and eliminating bends or irregularities. Additionally, it serves as a feeding device, seamlessly guiding the input bar directly into the rolling mill. This dual functionality guarantees consistent processing quality, minimizes disruptions during cold rolling, and enhances overall operational efficiency and precision.
2-Hi Rolling Mill
The 2-Hi Rolling Mill (Two-High Cold Rolling Mill), also known as a strip rolling mill, is a type of cold rolling mill featuring two rollers. This machine is specifically designed to transform wire rods from their original round shape into flat wires and strips. Widely used in the metalworking industry, the 2-Hi rolling mill is essential for shaping and reducing the thickness of metals, flat wires, and strips through a process of compression and elongation.
Tension Control Dancers
Tension Control Dancers are essential mechanical devices in strip rolling mills, utilized at various stages of the production line, including between rolling mills and before the pay-off machine and rolling mill. They are designed to regulate and maintain consistent wire tension throughout the strip rolling process. These systems play a vital role in ensuring the wire’s quality, precision, and smooth operation, particularly in high-speed or continuous production environments.
Turks Head Rolling Mill
The Turks Head Machine is a specialized component widely used in strip rolling mill lines, particularly for processing rectangular wires or strips, to shape metals into precise profiles. We offer both standard Turks Head mills and universal Turks Head mills to meet your specific production nes.
Wire Takeup Machine
We offer fully customized wire take-up machines tailored to your specific requirements, including your finished product’s packaging method, weight, and size. Whether you need solutions for compact spools, large reels, or unique packaging formats, our designs ensure optimal efficiency, durability, and seamless integration into your production line.
