Product Description
Full mechanical component standardization of our cooling bed assures constant equipment quality, as well as high performance levels. Depending on differing speed requirements, cooling beds' entry can be completed with lifting aprons and natural braking, magnetic braking, or twin channel and mechanical braking. For special applications, the cooling beds are provided with slow cooling by insulated covers and forced cooling by water spray systems or water tanks. A twin or double twin channel system for extremely high rolling speeds is available.
These are the types of Cooling Bed we provide :
Automatic rake type cooling bed which transfers the material by one pitch for every rake movement. These are provided with twin channel bar delivery system or run in table with apron type diverters. The bed is provided with bar alignment.
Turn over type cooling bed for alloy steel which rotates the bars by one revolution every time the rake moves by a pitch. These impart superior straightness in material improvised metallurgical properties as the bars are uniformly cooled.
Features / Specification
- We hold expertise in providing cooling beds from 9.5mtr up to 66mtr
- These can also be developed as per customer’s requirement
- We have with us rich industry experience of commissioning more than 10 automatic beds throughout India
- The use of cooling bed of rack design is for providing uniform air-cooling to TMT bars
- It also helps in transporting in phased manner from entry of cooling bed to the discharge side.
- Front end of bars leveled at discharge side with fixed number of bars provided for final length cutting through cold shear as well as bundling process
- Superior working mechanism of the bed ensures bars are positioned uniformly over toothed racks
- Cooling bed designed keeping in consideration smallest and maximum size of bars that need to be rolled from finishing mill stand as well as cooling time needed for different sizes of bars
- Straightening racks comprising cast iron toothed blocks that assist in receiving bars and straightening it at temperature of around 600oC
- Movable rack mechanism to move in x and y axis which will be profile cut to suit smallest size as well as maximum bar size
- Fixed rack mechanism that receives bars from movable rack mechanism as bars are being transferred toward delivery side of cooling beds
- Drive for movable rack mechanism comprising motors driving two parallel sets of drive shafts
- Bar aligning rollers fitted at end of racks and driven by motors for aligning bars front end before delivery to run-out roller table
