Steel Rolling Mill Plants

Steel rolling mill plants or factories produce various types and shapes of hot steels. In these steel roll production systems, the steel products undergo the processes of shaping and finishing to obtain their final form and dimensions. Wire rods, bars, angles, C-channels, joists, flat components and plates, beams, and both heavy- and lightweight steel sections are all manufactured in rolling mills.

Usually, a steel slab is heated in a reheating furnace and then is rolled into the final shapes, hot rolling, or cold rolling mills. During rolling, the metal is processed to reduce the thickness and make it uniform through pairs of rolls. During the process, when the temperature of the metal is above its recrystallization temperature, it is called “hot rolling”, whereas when the temperature is below the recrystallization temperature, it is called “ cold rolling”.

Types of steel rolling mill plant

Based on the specific application, the rolling mills can be grouped into the following types:

  • TMT Bar Rolling Mills: Manufacture TMT bars and rod steel, and deformed bars, widely used in the construction sector.
  • Structural Rolling Mills: Use ingot and billets as raw materials to produce I-beams (girders), U-channels, angles, T-sections, flats, rounds, and more.
  • Light Section Mills: Use scarp, ship plate, and ingot as raw materials, to produce components such as gate channels, section squares and rounds, flats, Z-sections, T-sections, channels, 6 mm bars, and 8 mm bars, etc.

Eot overhead crane for roll handling in rolling mills

High performances handling cranes are needed in the rolls mills and steel plant for hot steel handling. To ensure the malleability, the slabs and billets usually will be transferred at high temperatures and with high reliability. The overhead eot crane, or electric overhead travelling crane are critical for the process.

Electric overhead traveling cranes, or eot cranes, are critical to this process. Their key roles include:

  • Moving Hot Metal: There’s often a long distance between a plant’s melt shop and the rolling area, making transport cranes essential to the flow of manufacturing. They also can help feed steel into the rollers, as well as move the soft, hot metals from casting areas into storage and transport pieces to and from furnaces for reheating when necessary.
  • Sensitive Positioning and Load Handling: Limited factory floor spaces demand efficient movement. Reliable cranes help operators make the most of their work areas, aiding in accurate positioning of steel on conveyors and the safe handling of the wide range of metal products that pass through the shop, including slabs, billets, and coils.
  • eot cranes are the most common type of overhead crane and can be found in most factories; their electric operation is controlled by pendant, operator cabin, or radio/IR remote. For heavier lifting of 20 tons or more, double beam/girder bridge cranes offer additional support for the trolley and hoist. When the bridge girders ride on top of the runway beams, these cranes are considered to be “top running.”
