Abstract

Nonuniformity of pipe wall thickness is one of significant indices, determining quality of hot-rolled seamless pipes. One of the reasons of increased nonuniformity arising is dynamics of exit section mechanisms of pipe rolling line (PRL). Results of study of mandrel holding mechanism dynamics of PRL presented. Dynamic models of exit section, accounting parameters of technological process and inertia of a rolled hollow billet elaborated, which enabled to determine the character of dynamic processes at the exit section of PRL automatic mill. Differential equations of exit section elements motion at the exit section of PRL automatic mill were made up. The solution of the differential equations system was obtained in a numerical form by application of Runge‒Kutta method for correspondent dynamic models of exit section based on the example of calculations for ТПА-350 automatic mill. The pattern of dynamic processes arising at the exit section was specified at realization of the whole technological process of a hollow billet rolling at automatic mill, taking into consideration alternative action from the side of deformation center and mass of the rolled hollow billet. It was shown, that the specified solution of the task for three advanced dynamic models of mechanical system considerably differs from those of the known mathematical models. It was established, that the dynamics of the mandrel holding mechanism of ТПА-350 automatic mill equivalently form the mechanism of finished pipes geometry forming. Analysis of dynamic models of the mill exit section enabled to select the necessary technological and dynamic parameters of the mechanical system, to determine stable modes of hollow billets rolling at the ТПА-350 automatic mill. Results of the study of dynamics of exit section ТПА-350 automatic mill presented. A scheme of modernization of the exit section ТПА-350 automatic mill proposed, which enables to realize rational modes of operation accounting level of mechanical system dynamics and to control quality (geometric parameters) of the rolled pipes.
