Abstract

In cold-rolling a steel sheet coil, when a tail end portion of a steel sheet coil ( 7 ) is wound around a tension reel ( 3 ) prior to second-pass rolling after the completion of first-pass rolling, the tail end portion is heated to a temperature within a range of not lower than 50° C. nor higher 350° C. with a heater disposed between a rolling stand ( 1 ) and the coil tail end-side tension reel ( 3 ).

Claims (22)

1. A method of cold-rolling a steel sheet coil, comprising:

drawing out a leading end of the steel sheet coil from a pay-off reel;

after the drawing, winding the leading end around a first tension reel via a single-stand reverse rolling mill;

after the winding, rolling the steel sheet coil in a first pass with using the reverse rolling mill and giving a tension between the pay-off reel and the first tension reel;

stopping the rolling in the first pass when a tail end portion of the steel sheet coil is at a position between the reverse rolling mill and a second tension reel;

after the stopping, heating the tail end portion to a temperature within a range of not lower than 50° C. nor higher than 350° C. with a heater disposed between the reverse rolling mill and the second tension reel, and winding the tail end portion around the second tension reel; and

after the heating, rolling the steel sheet coil in second and subsequent passes with using the reverse rolling mill and giving a tension between the first tension reel and the second tension reel.

2. The method of cold-rolling a steel sheet coil according to claim 1 , wherein the tail end portion is heated with the heater while approaching the second tension reel.

3. The method of cold-rolling a steel sheet coil according to claim 1 , wherein the tail end portion includes an unrolled portion left unrolled after the rolling in the first pass and a roll bite portion adjacent to the unrolled portion.

4. The method of cold-rolling a steel sheet coil according to claim 2 , wherein the tail end portion includes an unrolled portion left unrolled after the rolling in the first pass and a roll bite portion adjacent to the unrolled portion.

5. The method of cold-rolling a steel sheet coil according to claim 1 , wherein

the steel sheet coil is a hot-rolled coil for a grain-oriented electromagnetic steel sheet containing 3 mass % Si or more, and

the tail end portion is heated with the heater to a temperature range within a 50° C. to 150° C. range.

6. The method of cold-rolling a steel sheet coil according to claim 2 , wherein:

the steel sheet coil is a hot-rolled coil for a grain-oriented electromagnetic steel sheet containing 3 mass % Si or more, and

the tail end portion is heated with the heater to a temperature range within a 50° C. to 150° C. range.

7. The method of cold-rolling a steel sheet coil according to claim 3 , wherein:

the steel sheet coil is a hot-rolled coil for a grain-oriented electromagnetic steel sheet containing 3 mass % Si or more, and

the tail end portion is heated with the heater to a temperature range within a 50° C. to 150° C. range.

8. The method of cold-rolling a steel sheet coil according to claim 4 , wherein:

the steel sheet coil is a hot-rolled coil for a grain-oriented electromagnetic steel sheet containing 3 mass % Si or more, and

the tail end portion is heated with the heater to a temperature range within a 50° C. to 150° C. range.
