The CRM 200 further comprises a pair of intermediate rolls 204 configured to provide mechanical support to the pair of working rolls 202. The pair of intermediate rolls 204 have a face width of 1280 mm. The CRM 200 further comprises a pair of back-up rolls 206 configured to provide mechanical support to the pair of intermediate rolls 204. The back-up rolls 206 have a face width of 1300 mm. Bearing center distance of the CRM 200 is 2170 mm.

An asynchronous rolling mill with a super large diameter ratio comprises a rolling mill stand, a press-down device, a balancing device, an upper roll system, and an arc-shaped plate device. The arc-shaped plate device comprises an arc-shaped plate, the arc-shaped plate is arranged opposite to the upper roll, and the arc-shaped plate and the upper roll are cooperated to roll strips. The present disclosure also provides a method for rolling a strip using an asynchronous rolling mill with a super large diameter ratio. The asynchronous rolling mill can roll with super large diameter ratio and different speeds, and has a large angle to engage, thereby reducing the external friction force of a workpiece and improving strip forming quality.

A device for laterally guiding a metal strip (1, 13) running over a loop lifter (4, 12) between two roll stands (2, 3, 8, 9) of a finishing train. The device includes at least one main member module (14) extending in a direction between the roll stands. The module has a guiding plane (15), and also supports a number of wear members (18, 19, 20), each with a wear surface (21, 22, 23). Those wear members can be turned to a number of rotational positions. At least two wear members (18, 19, 20) are respectively arranged between one of the roll stands (2, 3, 8, 9) and the loop lifter, wherein, seen in the direction of the loop lifter (4, 12), the surface area of the wear surface (21, 22, 23) of adjacent wear member bodies (18, 19, 20) increases. During the operation of the device, at least one of the wear members is rotated while the metal strip (1, 13) is running to expose another area of the wear surface to the side of the strip.

A rolling process for long solid-section products includes the steps of rolling stock through a plurality of rolling mill stands, the rolled stock being subjected to a tensile load, between the plurality of stands, that generates a single-axial deformation greater than 0.1 in the rolling direction, and is also deformed by compression between the rolls of at least one of the rolling mill stands, thereby achieving a reduction in the cross section area of at least 5%, preferably of between 5 and 50%. A rolling mill, in which a plurality of stands is connected by spacer elements designed to offset the tensile load; a rolling mill, in which a plurality of stands is connected by elements designed to offset the overturning moment generated by the tensile load; and a rolling mill, in which the aforesaid rolling stands maintain a non-slip condition.

There is provided a method for identifying thrust counterforce working point positions of backup rolls of a rolling mill, the method including: changing at least either friction coefficients and inter-roll cross angles between the rolls with an unchanged kiss roll load to cause thrust forces at a plurality of levels to act between the rolls, and measuring thrust counterforces in a roll-axis direction acting on rolls forming at least one of roll pairs other than a roll pair of the backup rolls and measuring backup roll counterforces acting in a vertical direction on the backup rolls at reduction support positions in a kiss roll state; and identifying, based on the measured thrust counterforces, thrust counterforce working point positions of thrust counterforces acting on the backup rolls, using first equilibrium conditional expressions relating to forces acting on the rolls and second equilibrium conditional expressions relating to moments acting on the rolls.
