Vertical rolling mill

No.UEE13

The vertical rolling mill is a key supporting equipment for the steel rolling production line, which works in conjunction with the universal rolling mill. The vertical rolling mill precisely controls the width of the profile flange, trims burrs on the side of the steel billet, corrects rolling deviation problems, and effectively improves the dimensional accuracy of finished H-beams, rails, and steel sheet piles. The equipment adopts hydraulic roller gap adjustment, with high degree of automation

High-precision vertical edging mill for H-beam, rail, channel steel and sheet pile production. Automatic hydraulic gap adjustment, stable vertical rolling, perfect matching with universal rolling mill. Factory price & custom solution available.

1. Product Overview

Vertical Edging Mill (also known as Vertical Rolling Mill) is the indispensable supporting core equipment for section steel hot rolling lines. It is always matched with the universal rolling mill unit to complete synchronous rolling and edge trimming. Different from horizontal mills that control thickness, this vertical rolling equipment focuses on controlling the width dimension of steel flanges, trimming edge burrs, correcting rolling deviation, and eliminating side bulging defects of profiles.

With compact heavy-duty frame structure, high-rigidity roll system and PLC automatic hydraulic adjustment system, the vertical edging mill ensures consistent width tolerance and smooth edge surface of finished steel. It effectively reduces product rejection rate, improves overall rolling stability, and is widely used in continuous hot rolling production of various structural steels.

2. Core Features & Advantages

Precise Width Control: Specialized in profile flange width shaping, accurately correct steel lateral offset and edge irregularities, finished width tolerance up to ±0.1mm, meeting international standard section steel requirements.
Perfect Matching Performance: Designed for supporting universal rolling mills, realizes synchronous four-sided rolling cooperation, avoids unilateral stress and profile distortion, greatly improves finished product straightness and forming uniformity.
Hydraulic Automatic Adjustment: Equipped with high-precision hydraulic servo gap adjustment system, supports one-key quick switching of different steel specifications, shortens model change downtime and improves production efficiency.
Durable & Low Maintenance: Adopts high-alloy forged vertical rolls with strong wear resistance and high-temperature resistance, stable operation under long-term high-load hot rolling conditions, low failure rate and long service life.
High Line Adaptability: Compact overall structure, flexible installation layout, compatible with new rolling lines and old production line renovation, suitable for tandem continuous rolling and reversible rolling processes.
Intelligent Monitoring System: Equipped with real-time monitoring of rolling pressure, roll speed and operating status, supports automatic alarm and fault diagnosis, reduces manual intervention.

3. Working Principle

The vertical edging mill is equipped with a pair of vertically arranged driving rolls. During the hot rolling process, after the steel billet is rolled by the horizontal universal mill, it enters the vertical mill roll gap. The vertical rolls apply uniform horizontal pressure on both sides of the profile to trim and shape the steel flange.

It accurately controls the final width size of the profile, removes edge burrs and uneven metal excess generated in rough rolling, and corrects the left-right deviation of the steel during transmission. Cooperating with the universal mill, it realizes integrated forming of thickness and width, ensuring high-precision and high-quality finished section steel.

4. Application Scope
