In allusion to this problem, a kind of novel GM-AGC system based on mill stretch characteristic curve was proposed. The error existing in calculating strip thickness by spring equation were analyzed first.

The novel GM-AGC system has been applied successfully in a hot strip mill, the application results show that the thickness control precision is improved significantly, with the novel GM-AGC system, over 98.6% of the strip thickness deviation of 3.0 mm class can be controlled within the target tolerances of ±20 μm.展开更多

Vector analysis was used to study the relationship between the punch shape and the collapse of the cut-end. Stamping experiments on AISI 1020 steel pipe were conducted using different angles a and β defining the shape of the punch. The elasto-plastic finite element method that allows consideration of a ductile fracture was also employed to study the process. The results show that the deformation of the pipe end after press cutting is inβuenced mostly by the shape of the punch. A satisfactory quality of the curvilinear end of the pipe can be obtained if the appropriate geometric parameters of the punch are chosen. The pipe-wall collapse in the upper part of the section is decreased when a and β increase. The recommended values for a and β lie within 30°-50°. The hole on the underside of the punch has less inβuence on the quality of the cut-end, and the wall distortion and the generation of burr on the cut-end can be satisfactorily simulated using the fracture criterion of Brozzo or the normalized criterion of Cockcroft and Latham.展开更多
