Cold rolling: efficient inline monitoring in real time

LiquiSonic® ensures a perfect oil mixture

  • Improves and stabilizes product quality
  • Reduction of wear on rolling elements
  • Acceleration of the process
  • Avoiding scrap

Challenges in cold rolling

Ensuring product quality

Avoiding plant damage

Both can be influenced by the quality and ratio of the oil/water emulsion.

Know the ratio of rolling oil and water at any time

  • Perfect rolling results
  • No delayed measurements
  • Detect the ingress of hydraulic oil
  • Extended equipment life
  • Automated replenishment and no sampling

Monitoring of the cooling emulsion

Lubrication

Reduces wear by removing dirt and particles

Cooling

Long-term protection of the rollers

Ensuring an optimal ratio of rolling oil and water on a permanent basis

Reason for fluctuating mixing ratios:

  • Continuous evaporation of water
  • Oil discharge over the rolling material
  • Ingress of foreign oils (hydraulic oil, lubricants)
  • Iron abrasion and dirt

Constant fluctuations require permanent real-time monitoring

Worst case: Plant shutdown with scrap

With LiquiSonic® you are on the safe side
