The present invention discloses a control method of hot mill coiler side guides based on spark recognition, where the side guides are adjusted according to the width of sparks from the friction between the hot rolled strip (20) and the side guides (11). An industrial camera (9) is provided obliquely above the side guides (11), and a detection system implements a real-time analysis on the images taken by the industrial camera and determines the magnitude of sparks generated on either side of the side guides according to the spark width. For each unilateral side guide, it is adjusted according to the spark width M.sub.S corresponding to that side guide (11). For said unilateral side guide (11), the deviation of the single-side spark width ΔM.sub.S is obtained according to ΔM.sub.S=M.sub.S−M.sub.aim. The position adjustment magnitude ΔW.sub.S of the unilateral side guide (11) can be obtained according to formula (I). And the pressure adjustment magnitude ΔP.sub.S of the unilateral side guide (11) can be obtained according to formula (II). This method allows the hot rolled strip (20) always in the relative center of the steel coil, reduces the wear of the side guides (11), avoids various defects of the steel coil, and makes the steel coil in good shape.

A method for rapidly measuring the roller pass major semi-axis of a three-roller reducing mill to improve the outer-diameter precision and surface quality of a steel pipe includes selecting a corresponding value of the average diameter of an elliptical pass, a value of a first major semi-axis, and a value of a minor semi-axis according to a rack station number of a special numerical control lathe; calculating a value of a first line segment according to an elliptic equation, the obtained value of the first major semi-axis, and the obtained value of the minor semi-axis; calculating a value of a second major semi-axis according to the right-angle triangle theorem and the value of the first line segment; and measuring a value of the first dimension by attaching three claws of a three-claw internal micrometer to three roller gaps.

A device for capturing and transmitting data of a bearing of a steel mill or rolling mill includes a sensor with a data processing unit arranged in a bearing housing capturing and storing data of a bearing. A data transmission unit in the bearing housing wirelessly transmits data of the sensor to a remote receiver. An energy receiving unit in the bearing housing receives energy wirelessly and transmits it to the data transmission unit and the data processing unit. An energy source with an energy transmitting unit arranged outside the bearing housing supply the energy unit wirelessly. The energy transmitting unit is covered by the bearing housing and is arranged on or in a structural part which adjoins the bearing housing and is part of the supporting structure of mill and remains on the supporting structure of the mill when the bearing housing is removed for maintenance purposes.

An internal oxidation starting temperature, estimation device estimates an internal oxidation starting temperature which is a minimum temperature required for an internal oxide layer to grow on a surface of an easily oxidizable element-containing hot-rolled steel sheet including Si, Mn, or Al or any combination thereof. The internal oxidation starting temperature estimation device includes an internal, oxidation starting temperature estimation unit that estimates the internal oxidation starting temperature on the basis of concentrations of the Si, the Mn, and the Al included in the easily oxidizable element-containing hot-rolled steel sheet.

The invention relates to a method and a measuring system for measuring a movable object, for example a lateral guide on the transport path of a casting strand in a metallurgical installation. The system has at least one light source (110) for emitting parallel light beams (130) and a receiving device (120) with a sensor field for receiving the light beams. An evaluation device is used to evaluate the light beams received by the sensor field. In order to be able to make the evaluation simpler and faster, the receiving device is designed to generate an image of the sensor field having the positions of the sensors of the sensor field, which are assigned to the light beams not influenced by the object, and having the positions of the sensors of the sensor field, which are assigned to the light beams which are emitted, but are influenced by the object. The distances between the individual sensors are likewise known on the basis of the known resolution of the sensor field. The evaluation device is designed to evaluate the image with regard to the depth of penetration of the object into the spatial area spanned by the light beams, the speed and/or the contour of the object (200).

A substrate (e.g., metal or non-metal sheet) can have multiple textures on a surface of the substrate. The various textures can be impressed or applied on the surface of the substrate by passing the substrate between multiple pairs of work rolls that each include at least one textured work roll for transferring a texture of the work roll onto the surface of the substrate. The pairs of work rolls apply the various textures on the surface of the substrate while maintaining a thickness of the substrate (e.g., with substantially no reduction in a thickness of the substrate). A single pass of the substrate between the pairs of work rolls can allow various different textures, patterns, or features to be applied to the surface of the substrate while the thickness of the substrate remains substantially constant.

Hot rolling stock (1) made of metal which is rolled in at least one roll stand (2) and then cooled in a cooling section (5) arranged downstream of the at least one roll stand (2). Sound generated by means of a sound generator arrangement (8) is coupled into the rolling stock (1) by a coupling device (1) so that a standing sound wave is formed at least in the region of the rolling stock (1) which is located in the vicinity of the coupling device (10).

A chattering detection method for a cold rolling mill, the method including: measuring a vibration of a cold rolling mill; calculating a time waveform of vibration intensity by performing frequency analysis on a time waveform of the measured vibration of the cold rolling mill for a predetermined period equal to or shorter than a time in which a periodic vibration continues without converging; and detecting a chattering sign vibration of the cold rolling mill based on a number of points having vibration intensity values that exceed a predetermined threshold, the points being included in the calculated time waveform of the vibration intensity.

A correction coil set, for detecting a spatial deviation of the metal sheet from a reference plane, each correction coil being connectable to a capacitor to form a respective resonance circuit having a resonance frequency. The correction coils are resonated at the respective resonance frequency. A shift in the resonance frequency in the presence of the metal sheet is detectable and the spatial deviation is derivable from the shifts.
