Reversing reel and method of operating a reversing reel
11801543 · 2023-10-31 · ·

A reversing reel includes a rotor, on which a reel mandrel with a rotary drive for winding strip into a coil is eccentrically arranged. A driven mandrel support device includes a mandrel support that has a bearing head for supporting a free end of the reel mandrel. The bearing head is movable with the reel mandrel when the reel mandrel is transferred from an initial-winding position into a final-winding position. The mandrel support is a first piston-cylinder arrangement, and the mandrel support is supported in a pivotable manner via a mandrel-support bearing on a slide that is movable tangentially to a circular path of the reel mandrel. The inclination of the mandrel support and the position of the bearing head are adjustable such that the mandrel support is oriented in accordance with a resultant force from the weight force of the coil and the tensile force on the strip.

Tracking metallic wires during a winding operation

Methods, apparatus, systems, and computer-readable media are provided for tracking amounts of wires provided to a winding head during a winding operation of a wire distribution system. The wires can be tracked using one or more wire tracking devices that can be disposed at one or more locations within the wire distribution system. The wire tracking devices can provide information related to the amounts of wires and the types of wires being used to wind about a winding head/form. The information can be used to check for errors during a winding operation and indicate the progress of the winding operation. The information can also be used to update wire-availability data to reflect the amount of wire that has been provided during the winding operation.

Winding wire manufacturing device and control method for the same

A control method for a winding wire manufacturing device that includes a base, a clamp, a bending top and a controller, includes a first process of detecting a bending torque applied to the bending top at the time of edgewise bending, a second process of determining whether or not a maximum value obtained by removing a torque value in starting the bending top from the bending torque is equal to or smaller than a predetermined value set in advance, and a third process of reducing a clamp load applied to a rectangular wire by the clamp when the maximum value of the bending torque is larger than the predetermined value.

STEEL STRIP COILING TEMPERATURE CONTROL METHOD, DEVICE FOR THE SAME AND STEEL STRIP PROCESSING SYSTEM

The present disclosure discloses a steel strip coiling temperature control method, a steel strip coiling temperature control device and a steel strip processing system, which relate to the technical field of steel strip production. The method comprises: seeking a corresponding speed compensation coefficient according to a target thickness of the steel strip and a target temperature parameter; seeking a corresponding speed gain coefficient from a second correspondence table according to a steel strip speed; correcting the steel strip speed based on the speed compensation coefficient and the speed gain coefficient to obtain a corrected steel strip speed; and adjusting a cooling efficiency of a laminar flow cooling apparatus according to the corrected steel strip speed. With the method, the cooling efficiency of the laminar flow cooling apparatus can be dynamically adjusted according to the steel strip speed, thereby solving the problem that that there is a great difference in coiling temperature between a tail section of the steel strip and a front section of the steel strip caused by the steel strip throwing process, and reducing the amount of cutting loss of the steel strip.

Coreless auger manufacture

A method for the handling of coreless auger, which is produced by an auger production machine from which the coreless auger emerges with a linear motion component and a rotational motion component, includes guiding the rotating auger for linear movement away from the production machine toward a temporary storage facility that has a cylindrical receptacle rotatable about its own axis and a coaxial rotatable feed guide having an axial inlet for formed auger and an outwardly directed outlet for directing formed auger toward an inner periphery of the cylindrical receptacle. The cylindrical receptacle is rotated and the feed guide is allowed to rotate about the axis of its inlet that is roughly coincident with the axis of auger entering the axial inlet of the feed guide. The cylindrical receptacle is rotated at a speed selected to counteract the rotation of the auger about its own axis.
