Rolling Mills / Screw Downs: Replacing Mechanical Cam Limit Switches at the Screw Downs (Rolling Mill) Increases Precision and Lowers Costs


For precise speed control in rolling mills the main drives of the roll stands and the coilers need to be equipped with an encoder. In addition, it is often necessary to provide increased protection for personnel during special operating modes, such as: For this application Johannes Hübner Giessen has been working with Motor OEMs for many decades to provide complete solution ie. Electrical and mechanical components. Home  Case Studies Rolling Mill / Rolling Mills / Screw Downs: Replacing Mechanical Cam Limit Switches at the Screw Downs (Rolling Mill) Increases Precision and Lowers Costs Rolling Mills / Screw Downs: Replacing Mechanical Cam Limit Switches at the Screw Downs (Rolling Mill) Increases Precision and Lowers Costs Home    Case Studies    Pilger mill in tube rolling mills – hot and cold pipe detection Pilger mill in tube rolling mills – hot and cold pipe detection Simple programming & presetting Additional real-time position data (4 – 20 mA) Direct attachment without distribution gears Before: Distribution gears and mechanical position switch Challenges The customer wanted a 1:1 replacement of the existing mechanical solution. There were several reasons behind this: Higher precision required Spare parts no longer available Reduce costs by stocking less spare parts Additional current output for real-time position data After: Directly attached electronic position switch ERC 40 with an additional current output for up-to-date position monitoring. Solution Setting the switching points was difficult with the obsolete mechanical solution. This is much simpler with the ERC 40. It enables the customer to move the screw downs to the desired position for a switching point – and then transmit the information to the software by drag & drop. As the data is stored in the ERC 40 and can be stored on the PC the customer is able to simply copy previously set switching points as required to further devices. Storing the reference position and preset configuration makes it possible to reference the ERC 40 along with the application, for instance after changing rolls. Eliminating the need for distribution gears combined with the higher precision of the ERC 40 has significantly increased the accuracy of the whole system. The current output (4 – 20 mA) of the ERC 40 also supplies additional real-time position data. Products and Accessories 1:1 Replacement for Mechanical Cam Limit Switch Couplings Adapter Shaft Heavy duty programmable overspeed switch Speed feedback for main drives Case Study Number TP3 Challenge The increasing flexibility of production lines requires a high adaptability of sensors. Continually changing object geometries, different temperatures and very high radiation or surrounding temperatures are no rarity. In a pilger mill those rough conditions can be found, among others in the production of seemless steel pipes. The raw steel blocks, each weighing a few tons are heated up first in a round oven at a temperature of 1300 °C. After descaling of the surface, the steel block is prepunched in a hole press with a strength from a converted 2000 t. In the next sloping rolling mill the growing pipe rotates between two rollers that are positioned at an angle to each other. The punching is widened to the size of the mandrel diameter. Previous solution / Competitor product N/A Solution The sensor that was installed at this application is the HMD OKA 2038.38 G with tube OL 19. The signal of the infrared sensors controls the movement of centering device and abutment. The point of view is restricted by the tube and prevents disturbances by steam in the cooling phase. An optimum adaptation to the operating conditions is given due to the adjustable response temperature. The HMD with self-learning response temperature (Auto-Teach function) is suited to continually changing conditions. The compact sensor with a stainless steel housing can withstand surrounding temperatures of up to 75° C. The use of a cooling jacket raises this up to 200° C.
