Additional information:
| Function | The withdrawal and straightening unit consists of two sections. The first is the withdrawal part, closest to the cooling chamber and the second is straightener part, prior to the intermediate roller table. The function is to withdraw and straighten the cast strand, as well as for insertion of the dummy bar for initiation/ re-stranding of the cast. |
| Location | After cooling chamber, on tangent point of casting radius. |
| Construction | rocker arm withdrawal and straightening unit with hydraulically loaded top rollers and three frequency-controlled AC drives, mounted on the rollers through Gear units |
| Type of drive | Frequency controlled AC-motors via gearboxes |
| Type of actuation of rocker arms | Hydraulically actuated cylinders, pressure adjustment by means of proportional pressure reducing valves. Independent adjustable on each rocker arm |
| Unbending | Fidus Achates Continuous Straightening -
|
| Roller pressure | Applied by hydraulic cylinders |
Features:
- Sturdy design for heavy duty.
- Low unbending stress due to continuous unbending system and five-roller design.
- Use of standardized AC-motors with high availability and practically free of maintenance.
- AC-drives located outside critical heat radiation.
- Hydraulically actuated rocker arms for jerk-free withdrawal of strand.
- Cooling panels protect the equipment against heat radiation generated by the hot strand

FAQs of Straightening Assembly:
Q: How does the mechanical straightening process in this assembly work?
A: The mechanical straightening process utilizes gear-driven technology and a 3 HP electric motor to adjust and align wires, tubes, or rods as they pass through the assembly. Rollers and guides apply even pressure, straightening materials efficiently at ambient pressure without compromising their integrity.
Q: What materials and dimensions can be handled with this straightening assembly?
A: This equipment is crafted from Mild Steel (MS) and is primarily used for wire, tube, or rod straightening. Standard dimensions are approximately 2000 x 600 x 1200 mm, but the size can be customized to match specific production requirements. The robust frame and smooth finish also support the handling of various material sizes.
Q: When should the lubricating system be used, and what options are available?
A: The lubricating system should be used regularly to maintain optimal performance and extend the assemblys service life. Operators can choose between automatic or manual lubrication, depending on their maintenance preferences and operational schedules.
Q: Where can this straightening assembly be installed and applied?
A: The assembly is ideal for industrial facilities such as manufacturing plants, workshops, or processing centers focusing on wire, tube, or rod products. It integrates well in production environments where precise straightening and reliability are essential.
Q: What are the main usage scenarios and benefits of this straightening assembly?
A: It is used mainly for straightening wires, tubes, or rods before further processing or assembly. Major benefits include increased material uniformity, reduced production waste, and enhanced operational efficiencyall achieved with a noise level below 75 dB and a smooth, durable finish.
Q: How does the coating and surface finish contribute to the assemblys durability?
A: A paint-coated surface and smooth finish provide protection against corrosion, wear, and environmental factors. This ensures the component remains reliable, reducing downtime and maintenance costs over prolonged industrial use.
