Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

This application is a 371 U.S. National Phase of PCT International Application No. PCT/CN2020/118929 filed on Sep. 29, 2020, which claims benefit and priority to Chinese patent application No. CN 201910942697.7 filed on Sep. 30, 2019, the content of both are incorporated by reference herein in their entiries.

TECHNICAL FIELD

The present invention relates to a heavy plate rolling technology, particularly to an efficient straight through medium-heavy plate production line of double rack and double shearing line and a production method.

BACKGROUND ART

Medium-heavy plates are important steel and iron materials on which national economy development relies, useful in ship manufacture, building construction, bridge construction, military industry, large diameter welded pipes and so on. Currently, there are totally 76 medium-heavy plate production lines in the country, wherein 68 of them can perform efficient production, and the designed capacity is 93,740,000 tons/year. The capacity distribution of medium-heavy plates in the country is extremely unbalanced. In eastern China, northern China and central and southern areas, the capacity of medium-heavy plates is high, and part of the produced medium-heavy plate products need to be supplied to the other areas. The capacity of medium-heavy plate in north-east area can basically meet the requirement of the middle and high end market in this area, while the requirement of the low end market is supplemented by external supply. In north-west area, the market requirement on medium-heavy plates is low, and the capacity thereof is low. The capacity of medium-heavy plates in southern China and south-west areas is low, and the market requirement is met mainly by externally supplied steel plates. The capacity of medium-heavy plates in southern China and south-west areas is obviously insufficient.
Thus, there is still strong demand for enlarging the capacity of heavy plates in some areas. Since there are many production lines of heavy plates in the country, if the newly built production line still uses the previous process, layout and design, it is difficult to improve in terms of the current production scale, cost and energy consumption, and cannot be competitive in the market, thus can be limited in development.
Currently, there is no production line of heavy plates whose capacity is over 2,400,000 tons/year. The general process layout of the current production line of heavy plates mainly has the following defects:
1) The capacity scale of the rolling line and finishing line of single production line, generally no more than 2,000,000 tons, is not sufficient.
2) The layout and process of production line of heavy plates in the country are basically identical, and there is no much innovation or modification.
3) Due to the design, the slab library has too long paths, so the hot charging ratio is low (basically less than 50%).
4) The capacity of rolling line and that of the finishing line cannot be matched.
In general, the mill capacity is higher than that of the subsequent finishing line, causing that the mill capacity cannot be exerted completely.
5) The length of the rolling route is limited, and generally, the maximum length is no more than 52 m, causing low rolled piece weight and low mill capacity.
6) The rolled steel plates of heavy plates must go around the cooling bed before entering into the shearing line, so the straight-through processing of the rolled steel plates cannot be achieved.
Chinese patent CN 201410302065 discloses a method for controlling the steel plate rolling and delivery speed for production line of medium-heavy plate rolling, wherein the production line of medium-heavy plate rolling comprises in order: the last pass mill of the finishing mills, 1-N groups of delivery rolling ways after mills, pre-straightening machine, cooling controller and hot straightening machine. The method for controlling the steel plate rolling and delivery speed is an automatic speed controlling method which is integrally coordinated, comprising integrally coordinated speed control on the last pass rolling process, rolling way delivery process and pre-straightening process.
Chinese patent CN 201410302063 discloses a method for controlling temperature decrease of steel plates during the rolling production line of medium-heavy plates, relating to an automatic speed controlling method comprising rolling process of the last pass of the mill, and the rolling and delivery process that delivers steel plates from the finishing mill to the cooling control device.
