Tandem Cold Mill (TCM) of the latest generation
The tandem cold mill is flexible in the production of automotive sheet, beverage cans and aerospace applications. The maximum strip width is 2,350 millimeters, the minimal thickness of the final products is 0.20 millimeters.
The TCM has been supplied including coil preparation and inspection station as well as facilities for coil and sleeve handling. Both mill stands are of CVC® plus six-high design and equipped with all the latest actuators for precise roll gap adjustment. In the area between the mill stands, there is a highly efficient interstand cooling system (type HEC) installed which ensures a high production output.
Another technical highlight is the inductive roll barrel heating for the selective heating of the work roll barrel in the strip edge area. It counteracts the phenomenon of tight strip edges.
Compared to alternatively used systems, the inductive work roll barrel heating is particularly effective and energy-efficient. Three Multi-Plate® filters, size MPF 3-21, for rolling oil filtration
contribute to environmentally friendly and sustainable plant operation. The exhaust air is purified by an Airwash™ system from SMS group. The roling oil system, the hydraulic systems, the lubrication oil plant as well as the fire extinguishing system complete the scope of supply.
