    The document discusses an automation system for the High Speed Shear (HSS) which performs automatic in-line trimming of wire rod. The system allows for automatic setup of process parameters, self-tuning during rolling, and full monitoring. It aims to control pinch roll position and synchronize the diverter with the shear blades to improve coil shape and reduce costs.

    High Speed wire rod


    cropping Shear

    The HSS High Speed Shear


    performs automatic in-line
    trimming of the rolled stock head
    and tail directly in front of the
    laying head or before the TMB
    block (depending on the wire rod
    line configuration). This results in
    lower transformation costs, better
    coil shape and higher reliability in
    trimming procedures in the
    production of 5 to 25-mm-dia wire
    rod at speeds of up to 120 mps.
    Featuring very compact
    dimensions and single pair blade
    holders, HSS is the most reliable
    solution for in line wire rod
    trimming.

    Highlights of the Automation


    system
    Automatic setup of the
    process parameters for different
    steel grades and sizes.
    Self-tuning of the equipment
    during the rolling process.
    Full monitoring of the process.

    System architecture
    Level 2 is dedicated to:
    - production parameters setup;
    - monitoring the process data
    thanks to the FDA Fast Data
    analyzer software package used
    to collect the working data of the
    machine and to analyze the data
    off-line to improve process
    behaviour.
    Level 1 is dedicated to:
    - controlling the closed loops

    of the cutting process;


    - on field real time monitoring
    of process/equipment.
    - Smart Pinch Rolls closed loop
    control;
    - operator interface with the on
    line process.

    Other features
    The aim of the Smart Pinch Rolls
    control is to achieve and maintain
    the desired tension of the bar in
    between the shear.
    The automation system will
    guarantee:
    Quick roll position setup
    based on the required pinching
    torque measured on the motor of
    the pinch rolls when the bar is
    hold by them.
    Control of the position of the
    pinch rolls during the whole bar

    The aim of the HSS equipment is
    to guarantee the synchronization
    of the diverter with the blades
    of the shear.
    The automation system will allow:
    quick setup based on
    the speed of the bar;
    position control loop
    of the diverter synchronized
    with the position of the blades
    of the shear;
    control of the speed of the
    shear blades;
    front end orientation at laying
    head.

    Benefits
    Manpower savings in
    operative staff: at least 2 men per
    shift, resulting in 0.8-1.2 Euro/t
    saving in production cost (*).
    More uniform and repeatable
    trimming.
    Better circle-shaped initial
    rings of coil at laying head.
    Final coil with excellent shape
    allowing higher de-coiling speed
    (up to 12 m/s).
    Simpler layout disposition.
    Uniform temperature loop
    layer feeding for better loop
    processing on the roller conveyor.
    These benefits are possible
    thanks to:
    direct on-line coil head
    and tail cropping.
    fully reliable cutting process
    at rolling speed of up to 120 m/s.
