click here to return to the main applications page Steel Rolaram Actuators and Spiracon Roller Screws provide the precision linear and vertical actuation mechanisms for the de-chocking car system in the Universal Beam Mill Plant at British Steel Teesside Works. The de-chocking car system comprises four cars, which are operated independently and have to be controlled on three axes, all interlocked and controlled through a PLC. The sequence of operation is as follows:
Since the installation of the new de-chocking car system, the time required to prepare rolls for changing at the mill stands has been reduced 50% of times previously achieved under the manual system and has resulted in a very significant improvement in labour utilization. Earlier attempts using hydraulics failed to achieve these demanding performance standards of moving high loads at high speeds with a high degree of accuracy
