Comprehensive Study of the Dynamics of the Retaining Mechanism of the Automatic Mill

Abstract

The results of the study of the dynamics of the mechanism for holding the mandrel of an automatic TPA mill are presented. The value of the axial force acting on the mandrel and the rod system of the mechanism of its holding is determined. Developed models of the mandrel retention mechanism have been developed, which made it possible to establish the nature of the development of dynamic processes on the output side of the automatic mill, taking into account the force parameters of the longitudinal rolling process of the sleeve and the parameters of the output side of the automatic mill. Mathematical models of the mandrel retention mechanism have been developed, taking into account the parameters of the technological process and the inertness of the rolled sleeve. The solution of the system of differential equations with variable coefficients is implemented numerically using the Runge-Kutta method for the corresponding dynamic models of the mandrel retention mechanism on the example of calculating the automatic mill TPA 350. The picture of the formation of dynamic processes in the mandrel retention mechanism during the implementation of the entire technological process of pipe production on an automatic mill has been clarified. taking into account the variable impact from the deformation zone and the change in the mass of the rolled sleeve. For various dynamic models, numerical solutions of problems were implemented, which made it possible to select the necessary technological and dynamic parameters of the mechanical system, to assign stable modes of rolling the sleeves on the automatic mill TPA 350. It is shown that the refined solution of the problem for three developed dynamic models of the mechanical system differs significantly from the previously known mathematical models. It has been established that the dynamics of the mechanism for holding the mandrel of the automatic TPA 350 mill is equivalent to the formation of the mechanism for the formation of different wall thickness of pipes. A mechanism for stabilizing the dynamics of the mandrel holding mechanism by separating the sections of the output side of the mill is proposed.
