Features of formation of edge cracks during production of hot-rolled steel on modern plame mills, hot strip mills and casting and rolling complexes. Part 1
The defect "edge crack" in the production of hot-rolled coil and plates at heavy-plate mills, hot strip mills and casting and rolling complexes is analyzed. The factors affecting the appearance of cracks in the edge zone of hot-rolled steel associated with steel casting technology are described. Technical solutions which help to eliminate the cracks of the rolled products are formulated.
