Movement of the Axial Stand in the ring mill.
What is axial stand? The axial stand supports the axial roll assembly and moves the axial roll assembly as the ring grows. There are axial rolls, axial roll gear box, axial roll motor and TR in the axial stand. Movement of the axial stand The axial stand is moved by the hydraulic cylinder in the direction of the long axis of the ring mill. I explained in my previous post( Do you know why the axial roll is cone shape? ) that the linear velocity distribution by the main roll and the linear velocity distribution by the axial roll correspond when the virtual vertex of the axial roll(C a ) coincides with the center of the ring(C r ). The ring mill program controls the position of the axial stand so that the virtual vertex of the axial roll matches the center of the ring. As the ring rolling progresses, the ring becomes larger. As the size of the ring increases, the center of the ring moves away from the main roll. As the center of the ring moves, the axial stand ...
