4. Operation Principle and Main Structure

4.1 Double-Cone Uncoiler  KJ50

 Uncoiler is used for supporting strip coil and providing steel strip for the line. It has two cones, one of which prepares for another coil while the other is working.

Outer Diameter of Coil φ1000～φ1400mm;Inner Diameter of Coil  φ480～φ520mm;Thickness of strip 0.8～2.2mm;Width of Strip  36～180mm;Weight of Coil 2T

4.2 Cutting and Welding Machine JH50

Its main function is cutting out the redundant ends of the coils and connecting each other by butt-welding to guarantee continuous production.

Width of Strip  36～180mm

Thickness of strip 0.8~2.2mm

Work cycle max.180s

Work process cutting, then connecting and welding the steel strips by hands.

4.3 Cage Accumulator WLLH50

Accumulator is used for accumulating some strip and sending strip to the main mill continuously. The accumulated strip is pulled out of the accumulator by the main mill.

Width of steel strip  36～180mm

Thickness of steel strip 0.8～2.2mm

Length of the accumulated strip approx. 250m

Accumulating speed Max200m/min

4.4 Forming and Sizing Machine  HGZ50

Steel strip is fed into the forming machine, which rolls steel strip into pipe shape, round or profile.

Then, high frequency induction heating equipment concentrates high frequency current on the two edges of pipe skelp, and, due to the skin effect and the kindred effect, the edges are heated rapidly to the welding temperature and then almost immediately squeezed together under the pressure of squeeze rolls.The welded pipe finally becomes the finished product in expected size after the final cooling, sizing and roughly straightening.

1) Standard height of bottom line of rolling 775mm

2) Main parameters

Outer Diameter of pipe Φ12～Φ60mm

Outer diameter of square pipe10×10mm～40×40mm

Outer diameter of Rectangular pipe 20×10mm～50×30mm

Wall Thickness of pipe  0.8～2.2mm (Square/Rectangular≤1.8mm)

Forming Speed 20～90 m/min

Power of Main Motor 75KW  1set.

3) Layout order of rollers

Forming process needs 7 horizontal rollers and 8 vertical rollers. Sizing Process needs 5 horizontal rollers and 5 vertical rollers. Two Turkey heads are used to roughly strengthen pipe.

(Horizontal Roller, Vertical Roller, and Turk Head are respectively short for H, V and T.)
