Braking mechanism for profile rolling mill cooling bed. Analysis and operation

Abstract

Abstract This paper presents the braking mechanism which are part from construction of rake tip cooling bed for small rolled product, and it is analyzed the kinematics of this mechanism. Purpose of this study it was to determine the movement law and other kinematics parameters of effecter elements of brake mechanism. This is required because in operation of the cooling bed, several mechanisms operate simultaneously, so it can must be optimized the operation of this complex equipment. Mechanism has two effector the elements, first effector element that elevates laminate of cooling bed surfaces, respectively, the second effecter element that moves transversely laminate to the cooling bed. Through these movements, rolled products are moved step by step, towards to delivering live roller table.
