(3) The world's first cold-rolled 2800mm CVC 6-roll cold-rolling mill was rolled out in South and South

Beijing Yanhui News: The world's first 2800mm CVC 6-roll cold-rolling mill, which was introduced by SMS Nanxi Aluminum Processing Co., Ltd. in 2015, was put into production. The cold rolling mill is the world's third wide-range (>2000 mm) cold rolling mill capable of rolling hard aluminum alloy except Davenport, USA and Koblenz, Germany. The maximum width of the hard aluminum alloy strip that can be rolled in this unit is 2650mm, which is the largest in the world. Hard alloy cold rolled strips up to 2650 mm in width for aerospace and automotive applications. The cold rolling mill has a unique hydraulic bending roll, axial roll, CVC roll curve simulation and many other current world's most advanced aluminum alloy rolling technology, and uses edge hot oil spray system (HES) and many The use of the rolling oil spraying technique in the section ensures the control of the crown accuracy in the rolling process of the strip, so that the wide strip has a good shape.
