METHOD AND DEVICE FOR ROLLING A PRODUCT TO BE ROLLED IN A ROLLING MILL HAVING A CROSS-ROLLING MILL
The invention relates to a rolling mill for rolling product to be rolled (6), having a planetary cross-rolling mill (20) and a subsequent further rolling mill in the rolling direction, the subsequent mill comprising a mandrel rod (10) having a length that is larger than the distance between the planetary cross-rolling mill (20) and the further rolling mill in the rolling direction.
A rolling stand includes at least one roller having a roller journal which is rotatably supported by an eccentric bushing which in turn is rotatably supported by a low-friction bearing unit. An adjusting mechanism exerts an adjusting force on the eccentric bushing for rotating the eccentric bushing with respect to the housing and maintaining the eccentric bushing in a desired position. In order to determine a rolling force in the rolling stand, the eccentric bushing is rotated to a desired position relative to the housing by the adjusting mechanism, and an effective adjusting force in the adjusting mechanism is measured when the eccentric bushing is held in the desired position. The rolling force can then be ascertained on the basis of the measured adjusting force.

Abstract
The present invention discloses a method for manufacturing a tube of copper or copper alloy (1), including: a) removing a surface oxidation layer from a tubular blank; b) rapidly rolling said tubular blank by means of a four-planet rolling mill (2, 6, 7) ; c) rapidly cooling down said tubular blank; d) linearly drawing the cooled-down tubular blank with a linear drawing equipment. In said manufacturing method, a four-planet rolling mill with a relatively strong strength is utilized. It provides a faster rolling speed, which is about three times of that in the prior art . Consequently, huge deformation heat is produced. A two-stage cooling down is subsequently carried out so that the recrystallization process of the coarse casting structures may be accelerated. The grains after recrystallization are small and uniform, with sizes of 0.010-0.040mm. Meanwhile, the drawing process for the tubular blank may reduce the defects on the tubular surface.
