Roll cooling systems
Optimize your rolling mill with the use of GRIP zone cooling.
For non-ferrous metal rolling mills
Applications
Optimal solutions for
Cold rolling mills
Hot rolling mills
For installation in
Tandem systems
One-way systems
Reversing systems
for roll and strip cooling.
Flatness control systems
Tailor-made zone cooling systems for all common flatness control (AFC) systems to 4-high and 6-high rolling mills.
Control connection
Possibility of integration on all existing control systems using an open interface, independent of BUS and manufacturer.
Cooling zone widths
We supply all typical zone widths such as
25 mm, 26 mm, 50 mm, 52 mm
or according to individual customer requirements.
Also available with “narrow edge” configurations.
Nozzle orientation
The free arrangement of the spray nozzles allows optimum roll wetting and gap lubrication with the best possible flatness results.
Installation
The cooling bars are manufactured with high precision. The assembly points are optimally planned for the specific plant in order to reduce the downtime of the rolling mill during installation to a minimum.
Choice of materials
Typical chilled beam design in aluminum; also available in steel or stainless steel on customer request.
Corrosion resistance
High-quality material selection for the valve parts ensures corrosion resistance when using commercially available coolants as well as emulsions and rolling oils.
Cooling medium variations
Due to a possible multi-chamber design of the cooling beams, systems with different pressures or coolant temperatures can be operated.
Switching times
Plant optimization through extremely fast reaction and switching times of the valves of less than 20 milliseconds.
GRIP advantage
The replacement of existing multi-zone cooling bars (3/5 zones) by a GRIP system with modern multi-zone cooling allows a significant improvement of the final product.
- increase in production
- quality improvement
- Low inspection and maintenance costs
- Short downtimes for maintenance work
As an ideal replacement for existing pneumatically controlled cooling systems, the customer benefits from:
- increase in production
- quality improvement
- Low inspection and maintenance costs
- Short downtimes for maintenance work
