Sheet steel manufacturers highly approved rolling mills with reversing stands and furnace coilers (Steckel mills) while producing small batches of various products [].The ability to produce a very thin and, at the same time, wider sheet than continuous wide-strip hot mills is considered to be one of the greatest advantages of such mills [].In …
A Steckel rolling mill is a reversible rolling stand in which strip after each pass is wound on a coil in furnace heated coiling machines (Fig. 5). It is considered to be the most flexible and effective solution with a requirement for producing relatively small volumes and broad size range of sheet and rolled product [55,56,57]. There are many ...
Steckel mill rolling presents some singularities when compared to continuous conven-tional hot strip mills as well as reversible plate mills. The main differences can be defined in the finishing stands. The Steckel mill applies reversal passes with longer interstand times and with much more limited temperature drops between passes due to the two

In 1921 young, blond, solidly-built Abram Peters Steckel, engineering student, watched sweating men in a wire plant reduce cold rods to thin wire by successive draws through rollers and dies. Mechanically-minded Steckel thought the same idea could be used in reducing steel strips and sheets. He built a crude cold-rolling mill in a friend's ...

Steckel mill – A four-high reversing rolling mill, a Steckel mill allows the rolling of a large slab by providing heated coil furnaces or boxes on both sides of the mill to store the increased length produced during rolling Steel – Alloy of iron and carbon with a carbon content of less than 1.7% Steel bath – The hot, molten steel in a ...
The temperature change in the Steckel mill during rolling is shown in Fig. 5. The graph shows that the tem perature during rolling is approximately at the same level, which affects the quality of ...
The Steckel Mill PLC will do the sequence control of the process in Steckel Mill. During the pass in Steckel Mill, actual values like roll force and strip temperature are measured by Steckel Mill PLC and sent to Model server. After 35-50% of that pass length is rolled the model server will process the measured values sent by Steckel Mill PLC.
The recrystallisation of AISI430 ferritic stainless steel during hot working is considered crucial for developing suitable product properties for sheet metal forming. Attention has focused on the ability to accurately reproduce the process route conditions of hot Steckel mill rolling at the laboratory scale. The variability was considered through …
The concept of Plate/Steckel mills provides a middle ground in plate rolling by producing discreet plate (up to 50mm) and coil plate (4.5 to 25mm) in one line. Pure Steckel Mills are also beginning to emerge as major contenders where a low cost start in the market is sort by an investor. These produces both carbon steel, stainless
