Scarfing machine for scarfing hot and cold workpieces made of steel, such as slabs, blocks and billets
Scarfing machine ( 1 ) for scarfing hot and cold work pieces ( 2 ), such as slabs, blooms and billets made from steel in and downstream of continuous casting plants with a roller table ( 3 ) arranged in the direction of transport of the work piece, on which the work piece ( 2 ) to be scarfed can be moved back and forth. The scarfing machine ( 1 ) is set up in a gap ( 4 ) formed in the roller table ( 3 ) which has a U-shaped beam ( 7 ) with a scarfing unit ( 10 ) in the form of a rack of manifolds arranged crosswise to the roller table ( 3 ). The height of the burner beam ( 7 ) can be adjusted and it can be pivoted approximately 180° on a horizontal axis ( 8 ) around the top, bottom and cut sides of the work piece ( 2 ) by means of a swivelling drive ( 6 ) while the work piece is moved back and forth.
1. A scarfing machine ( 1 ) for scarfing hot and cold work pieces ( 2 ), such as slabs, blooms and billets made from steel in and downstream of continuous casting plants, with a roller table ( 3 ), having a gap ( 4 ) for placement of the scarfing machine ( 1 ) therewithin, arranged in the direction of transport of the workpiece ( 2 ), on which the workpiece ( 2 ) to be scarfed can be moved back and forth such that the workpiece ( 2 ), while being worked upon, spans the gap ( 4 ) in the roller table ( 3 ) so as to completely and simultaneously expose a top, a bottom and sides of that part of the workpiece ( 2 ) spanning the gap ( 4 ) to scarfing,
characterised in that
the scarfing machine ( 1 ) is set up in the gap ( 4 ) fotiiied in the roller table ( 3 ) and has a U-shaped burner beam ( 7 ) with a scarfing unit ( 10 ) in the form of a rack of manifolds arranged cross-wise to the roller table ( 3 ),
wherein the burner beam ( 7 ) is adjustable to various heights within the scarfing machine ( 1 ) and is pivotable approximately 180° on a horizontal axis ( 8 ) around the top, bottom and cut sides of the workpiece ( 2 ) by means of a swiveling drive ( 6 ) while the workpiece is moved back and forth across the gap ( 4 ) in the roller table so as to access the entire surface of the workpiece ( 2 ) with burners.
2. The scarfing machine according to claim 1 ,
characterised in that
the burner beam ( 7 ) is arranged for height adjustment relative to the workpiece ( 2 ) by means of lifting guides ( 5 ) and runs in at least one frame guide ( 9 ).
3. The scarfing machine according to claim 1 ,
characterised in that
the scarfing unit ( 10 ), which is formed as a rack of manifolds with a number of distributor heads ( 11 ) with scarfing burner lips ( 12 ) arranged side-by-side, is arranged on the horizontal part of the burner beam ( 7 ).
4. The scarfing machine according to claim 3 ,
characterised in that
the scarfing burner lips ( 12 ) of the distributor heads ( 11 ) are arranged at an angle of approximately 30° from the horizontal in relation to the work piece ( 2 ).
5. The scarfing machine according to claim 1 ,
characterised in that
a machine portal ( 13 ) arranged crosswise to the roller table ( 3 ) has at least two side scarfing burners ( 14 ) with distributor heads ( 11 ) with scarfing burner lips ( 12 ) that are arranged at an offset in order to scarf the longitudinal sides of the work piece ( 2 ).
6. The scarfing machine according to claim 5 ,
characterised in that
the side scarfing burners ( 14 ) have drives ( 15 ) for horizontal movement.
