INTRODUCTION:
About Tata Steel
TATA Enterprises with 82 companies and an annual turnoverexceeding US $ 8.8 billion employ more than 262,000 people. Tata
Company has forged a number of global alliances with eminent
international partners in several fields. In terms of capital market
performance as many as 40 listed Tata companies account for
nearly 5% of the total market capitalization of all listed companies.
Tata Steel, the Flagship Company of the Tata Group of Companieswas set up in 1907 by the great visionary and patriot industrialist
Jamshedji Nusserwanji Tata. Ever since its inception, the steel
company has upheld and cherished business principles for which it
is widely recognized as a corporate entity committed to taking care
of the interest of all its stakeholders, abiding by the intrinsic values
of trust, integrity and excellence.
Tata Steel - Asia's first and India's largest integrated private sectorsteel company began with a modest capacity of two 200 - tons blast
furnaces, four 4 -tons steam-driven blooming mills and a rail and
structural mill. Today it stands as a state-of-the-art 3.5 million tons
steel plant capable of making the most rigorous demands of its
customers. Keeping abreast of the emergent technologies, Tata
Steel is now on the verge of becoming one of the most cost
competitive producers of steel. The 1.2 million tones Cold RollingMill, commissioned on April 24, 2000 has added value to Tata Steel's
present product mix, strengthen market leadership and penetrate
new markets.
With present capacity of 4.5 MT, It is looking forward to increasing its
capacity to 15 MT by 2010. Tata Steel produces longs as well as
Flats. Its latest acquisition of NAT STEEL produces long products that
have its global presence in 7 different countries.

TATA Steel is one of the lowest cost steel producer as well as it is
supplier of high-end steel like supplied to auto OEM.
Tata Steel is one of the best-integrated steel plants and is having
facilities right from raw material production to finishing stage rolling.
Introduction to steel manufacturing:
Steel making is basically done in threestages:
1. Iron making process
2. Conversion to steel
3. Rolling Process
Steel is manufactured by injecting oxygen through liquid iron.
This is done in huge vessels known as LD (Linz Donnawitz)
vessel. In this process oxygen is passed at supersonic velocity.
The oxygen used is 99.5 % pure. This is done to reduce the
carbon content in iron to less than 2%. Flow dia. below
describes the steel manufacturing process at TATA Steel.

COLD ROLLING MILL
IntroductionThe HR Coil coming from HSM is Cold Rolled because
1. Shape and Profile are better in CR as compared to HR.
2. Surface finish in HR Coil is not good.
3. Gauge accuracy of HR is not good.
The Cold Rolling Mill (CRM) ofTATA Steelis fully automated. The CRMuses Hot Rolled coil as its input and produces Cold Rolled galvanized
and Cold Rolled Annealed coils.
Reputed makers like Hitachi, Mitsubishi, IHI, LOI, CMI, ABB, SIEMENS etc
have supplied equipments.
Cold rolled steel sheets are produced by way of series of cold rollingprocesses, using hot rolled steel coils as the starting material. In the
cold strip mill, the scale on the hot rolled coils is removed by the
process called pickling (producing a product referred to as pickled coil).
The pickled coil is then cold rolled at room temperature to a thickness
of 0.15 to 3.2 mm. The cold rolling process is followed by the annealing
process and temper rolling. Compared to hot rolled sheets, cold rolled
sheets are thinner
Have superior thickness accuracy, and a smooth, attractive surface.
Cold rolled sheets are also superior in mechanical properties, especially
in workability.
These features mean that cold rolled sheets are suitable for
application which require small thickness of under 1.2 mm, which is
outside the conventional size range of hot rolled steels sheets, and
require not only stricter thickness accuracy but also an attractive
surface and excellent formability.

Cold rolled steels sheets are also used as the substrate for various kinds
coated steels sheets such as zinc galvanized steel sheets, tin mill black
plates, and others

Basics of CRM
1. The hot strip mill sends hot rolled coil (thickness 2 to 6 mm)
width (800-1500mm) to the CRM.
2. First the hot coil passes through the pickling section containingHCL acid in order to remove scales, making them ready for coldrolling.
3. Trimming section where the edges of the pickled hot rolled coilsare trimmed, if needed.
4. The coils are then fed into the main mill, viz. Tandem Cold Mill(TCM) (6 Hi, 5 stand mill). The CR strip thickness is 0.25 to 3.2mm. The strip thickness and shape is controlled within a verytight tolerance.
5. After cold rolling, the strip is either processed through annealing(BAF) + skin passing (SPM) or through any of the two galvanizinglines.
6. Part of coils which are sent through BAF + SPM, are firstprocessed in ECL.
7. About 2/3rd of CR goes to the Batch Annealing Furnaces (BAF)where the coil are stacked, covered and heated in closedatmosphere in a 100% hydrogen environment. This processimproves the mechanical properties of the strip and helps instress relieving. These coils are then processed through SkinPass Mill (SPM). Skin passing removes Luder bands, impartdesired surface finish, and improve flatness.
8. About 1/3rd of the production from PL-TCM goes to theGalvanizing Lines (CGL#1 & CGL#2), where the zinc coating isapplied on the strip by taking it through molten zinc bath. Thiszinc coating gives a sacrificial layer on the cold rolled strip forcorrosion protection.
9. Most of the coils are then taken through recoiling & Inspectionlines (RCL 1, 2 & 3) and are then packaged either manually orthrough coil packaging line.

Pickling & Tandem Cold Mill (PLTCM)
Pickling is an important stage in the steel processing sequence. After hot
rolling and prior to cold rolling of strip. The aim of this operation is toeliminate oxide formed on the surface during hot rolling.
Pickling consist of treatment of the surface of the strip with
inorganic acid either hydrochloric or sulphuric. In order to improve the
efficiency of pickling it is preceded by mechanical de scaling (with help of
tension leveller) to crack and partially eliminate the oxides. The pickling
process then removes the remaining oxides and leaves a clean surface.
Pickling rate is faster with Hydrochloric Acid (HCL) then sulphuric acid.
Owing to enhancement of productivity along with other advantage we use
HCL acid as the pickling medium.
Various types of baths / tanks are used for pickling, for Tata steel CRM
shallow bath HCL continuous pickling has been chosen as the pickling
process.
Major purposes of pickling
To eliminate scales from hot rolled strip.
Improve cold rolling operatibility

Ensure the appearance of strip
Improve the efficiency and quality of processes downstream, thesize of coil increased by welding.
A strip is trimmed on both the edges to a specified width.
Any portion of strip that are bound to be detrimental to downstreamprocesses or that to turn defective are eliminated
COLD ROLLING MILL
After the hot rolled coil surface is free from scale; it is rolled at room
temperature, referred to as cold rolling. For cold rolling mill complex it has
been decided to go in for a coupled pickling line (with shallow bath
pickling) and a 5-stand tandem mill (each 6-hi). This line has the capability
to produce strips with thickness accuracy better than +- 1%.

Batch Annealing Furnace (BAF)
After cold rolling, annealing is done to soften the sheet for obtaining
superior mechanical properties for deep drawing application.
Annealing process restore ductility increases internal stresses and
restores formability of the cold rolled strips. Two widely different
annealing technologies are
a) Batch or box annealing Furnace (BAF)b) Continuous annealing
For aluminium killed low carbon steels, which form a major
portion of the product-mix, Batch Annealing has a distinct advantage
over continuous annealing.
For the Tata steels cold rolling complex, 100% batch annealing
has been chosen as the annealing route.
The batch annealing has following advantages.
a) Development of 100% h2 batch annealingb) Flexibility in input raw materialc) Process simplicityd) Economic lot sizee) Flexibility in capacity addition.

Skin Pass Mill (SPM)
It is necessary to impart a small amount of deformation (typically
between 0.5 to 1.5%, depending on the grade) to annealed steel
strips for primarily
a) Preventing stretcher-strains mark during subsequent formingapplicationb) Imparting the desired surface texture (roughness) on the strip.
For CRM complex a skin pass mill of 1 mtpa capacity has been
selected having following facility.
a) 4 hi single stand mill with work roll bendingb) Wet type skin passing (using temper agent)
c) Work roll texturing using the Electrode Discharge texturing(EDT) method.

Skin Pass Mill
Galvanizing Lines (CGL)
Galvanizing the coils protects steel sheets from corrosion attack by
acting as a barrier between steel and the environment.
Zinc and Zinc alloys have the ability to react at scratches and other
damages through an electrochemical (galvanic) action between
steel and zinc.
In the galvanic process zinc sacrifices itself to protect structural
integrity of the steel.

4. about industrial hydraulics:
Hydraulics is the transmission and control of forces and movements by
means of fluids. The fluids used to transmit the forces and movements aregenerally incompressible fluids, like water and oil. External forces applied
on it will increase the pressure of the fluid, which resist the external forces,
but the volume the fluid will remain constant. There are normally two
fields of application of hydraulics, which are completely distinct both in
their basic principles and in their potential application. When a load is
moved or hanged by the pressure energy of the system, as in a hydraulic
jack, it is called Hydrostatic power transmission, but, when high velocity
of fluid or very high kinetic energy of the fluid is used to get the high
rotation of a water turbine, it is called Hydrodynamic power transmission.
Industrial Hydraulics basically deals with the hydrostatic power
transmission.
Characteristic features of hydraulic systems:-
1. It is a self lubricated system.
2. Simplicity of operation.
3. Sensitive, smoothly variable speed controls.
4. The equipment is economical in space and weight.
5. Simple safe guarding against overloads, by means of a pressure limiting
valve.
6. Ease in monitoring and checking the hydraulic system by means of pr.
gauge.
7. Ease of transmitting motion and power from prime mover to machine.
8. As a gear box, it provides positive drive, hence no chances of slippage
between driver and driven elements.

5. Project in BAF hydraulics:
SPECIFICATION OF CLAMPING CYLINDER:
There are 8 cylinders in BAF which are placed alternatively in the
base of furnace.
Four of them are non return valve (NRV) which holds the pressure.
Other four are non- non return valve (N-NRV) which does not hold
the pressure.
NRV have only inlet valve which allow the fluid to flow only in
single direction.
N-NRV has both inlet and exhaust valve which allow the fluid to
flow in both direction.

9.1 CAUSES OF HYDRAULIC SEAL FAIL IN CYLINDERS:-
Inexpensive Hydraulic Seal can cost us thousands in
downtime and loss of production if it fails.. If we have a
problem in seal, focus on these points to help
determine the cause of fail:-
Improper installation is a major cause of hydraulic seal failure.The important things to watch during seal installation are: (a)
cleanliness, (b) protecting the seal from nicks and cuts, and (c)
proper lubrication.
Other problem areas are over tightening of the seal gland wherethere is an adjustable gland follower or folding over a seal lip
during installation. Installing the seal upside down is a common
occurrence, too. The solution to these problems is common sense
and taking reasonable care during assembly
9.2 improvements:-
For improving the properties of seal and to prevent the seal failure we
have taken following actions:-
Earlier we are using the local seal (SPERAGE) which is
replaced by the new seals named INERPAC which has better
reliability and strength.
Insulation around the hydraulic cylinder has also prevented theseal failure to some extent.

47/47
10. SOLUTION $ CONCLUSION:-
# It is not necessary to buy replacement seals from the hydrauliccylinder manufacturer. Many hydraulic seal suppliers have the same
exact seals that are used in most hydraulic cylinders and can easily
cross reference or match up a replacement. In many cases, if there is a
recurring problem with a seal, our seal specialist can recommend a
solution and increase the life of the seal.
