SUMMARY:Online condition monitoring system on a hot rolling mill
DESCRIPTION:Hot rolling mill is a key section of a steel plant. The section produces vast amounts of steel sheet with different sizes and grades which are used extensively on automotive, pipe, construction and white goods industry. With respect to these high production rates, machinery reliability is on top importance for the plant. Rolling mills which need to work continuously without a flaw, consist of machinery that must be reliable in long term.  Hot rolling mills usually have one or two rougher mills with an attached edger and 6 or 7 stand finishing mill. Each of these divisions contain nearly the same machine elements which are mostly a main drive motor, a gearbox to reduce speed and increase the load and a pinion stand to get a double output which are turning different direction to be able to drive the rolling stands. Each of these machines have very critical parts like roller bearings and reducers that have to be perfectly and continuously monitored in order to prevent developing failures. The article contains the detailed structure of the online condition monitoring system which is implemented on the hot rolling mill plant in Isdemir – Iskenderun/TURKEY. In the last section of the article a bearing failure which was detected with the help of the online system has been shared.

Key Words: hot rolling, condition monitoring, vibration analysis, bearing fault, advanced diagnostic analysis, process parameters
