Review on Main Drive Torsional Vibration and Roller Coupling Vibration of Rolling Mill

Abstract

Background: Rolling mill vibration has become one of the most widespread and unsolved problems in rolling industry, which is called "Ghost" vibration. The research on the starting mechanism, vibration characteristics and vibration suppression measures of high-speed tandem rolling mill has always been a hot spot and difficult point in the field of rolling at home and abroad. However, up to now, the research on rolling mill vibration has not formed a relatively complete and widely accepted theoretical system, experimental means and solutions. In production, vibration is often controlled by experience and test, which has high cost and low efficiency. Methods: In this paper, the research history and achievements of vibration phenomena, vibration mechanism, stability of rolling process and vibration control theory of high-speed tandem rolling mill in recent years are summarized. The aim is to reveal the mechanism of rolling mill vibration in continuous rolling process, the mechanism of rolling mill non-linear vibration instability and its changing law, and to explore the optimization of rolling process and the control method of rolling mill structure so as to improve the rolling process. Results: The evolution of non-linear random torsional / bending vibration and its transfer mechanism to the space coupling vibration of the roll system, the unsteady dynamic friction characteristics of the rolling interface and the mechanism of induced roll chatter, and the non-linear random dynamic behavior of the space coupling vibration of the roll system are revealed. Conclusion: The stability of rolling process can realize the research and development of high-end products considering the stability of rolling process, and also provide reference for further research by industry experts.

Developing Digital Observer of Angular Gaps in Rolling Stand Mechatronic System

“…Angular gaps in the rolling mill torsion systems not only deteriorate their dynamic performance but also cause oscillations that adversely affect the rolling stability and the product quality [12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19]. Therefore, due to a combination of the aforementioned reasons, the problem of monitoring gaps in the main driveline (mainline) joints is relevant.…”
