Run-Out Table
Skin Pass Rolling Process
The slabs, which are transferred from a continuous casting plant, are heated enough in a reheating furnace, first, and then, they are extracted in order to be used for the steel rolling works finally. In order to remove the thick scales on the surface of a hot slab, some VSBs (Vertical Scale Breakers) are being run after being installed.
In this process, slabs with surface scale already removed are made into rolling materials with proper shape, thickness and width. In the entry and exit area of the roughing mill, the edger rolls the strip in the width direction using the automatic width control (AWC) system.
The purpose of a finishing rolling is to adjust the thickness and width of a coil to the specified sizes and to roll it to have a smooth surface and shape at a desired finishing temperature appropriate to its usages. The up-to-date equipments, such as Work Roll Shift Mills, On-line Roll Grinders (ORGs), etc., are contributing to the enhancement of the productivity and the quality of the coils by controlling the crowns.
After the finishing mill, the strip passes to the run-out table where it is then coiled. While being rolled along the table, the strip is sprayed with water to cool it to the proper temperature suitable for coiling.
During the skin pass rolling process, various kinds of inspections, such as the surface defect and dimension measuring, etc., are conducted in order to improve the shapes, mechanical behaviors and surface profiles of a product.

Pair Cross Mill
An AWC System, which is attached to the roll of a skin pass rolling mill, automatically adjusts the width of a coil by using the highly-sensitive hydraulic cylinder while monitoring the result width of a coil.
The shape and crown of a coil is adjusted by the paired upper and lower rolls crossing each other.

An ASC (Automatic Shape Control) System, which is attached at the end of a finishing mill, adjusts the flatness of a coil. After that, the ASC System automatically adjusts the pressure of the roll bender to control a strip shape.
An AGC System, which is attached to the end of a finishing mill, automatically adjusts the thickness of a coil by using the highlysensitive hydraulic cylinder while monitoring the result thickness of a coil.

The whole area of a village gets full of joys even only with some small grains! In a small village, Manyara of Tanjania, having been clam, the whole village is hustling and bustling, today, thanks to only one popping machine from an unknown country. A child having a bawl full of corns and another having no grains feel the same flutter in their hearts. ‘Pop!’And then, the empty bawl of a child with no grains is also filled up with pop corns.
For more information, please contact us at the addresses given below.
At the very moment when all the children’s bawls are full of white happiness evenly, smiles brighter than anyone’s over the world settle down on everyone’s face in the village.
