Walsin Lihwa places order with Kocks for China rolling mill project manufacturer Walsin Lihwa Corporation has placed an order with Friedrich Kocks GmbH & Co KG, based Germany, for a Reducing & Sizing Block (RSB ® 5.0) 370++/4. After the successful start-up of the latest three-roll block at Tainan works in 2018 it is in total the third Kocks block that Walsin Lihwa is ordering from the German company. The Kocks RSB ® in 5.0 design will be installed in a new SBQ rolling mill, located in Yantai, China. The rolling mill will focus on the production of special steel grades. The Kocks RSB ® 370++/4 will finish roll all round dimensions from 18 to 100mm and hexagon dimensions from 18 to 80mm, as well as pre-rounds for the wire rod outlet. Included in the scope is, apart from the RSB ® , the Size Control System (SCS ® ), which allows real-time adjustments of the operating parameters of the rolling block, as well as the profile measuring gauge 4D Eagle ® . The planned measures ensure the high automation degree of the finishing mill with process monitoring capabilities and fast adjustments, if required. The results will be one of the most advanced SBQ rolling mills available with high productivity and quality repeatability.
