Two new roll grinders, manufactured by Pomini Tenova, will continuously supply ground rolls to the new Nucor plate mill complex in Brandenburg, USA; which is expected to start up its operations in late 2022. The two heavy-duty combination roll grinding machines will be designed for grinding roughing and finishing stand work rolls with or without chocks and backup rolls of both stands without chocks. The roll grinders will also be equipped with an automatic caliper for measuring in cycle roll alignment, profile, roundness and eccentricity. Additionally, the Pomini Tenova Inspektor 3 will be integrated for on-line inspection of roll surface and subsurface with the aim to detect the presence of cracks and bruises with eddy currents and ultrasonic waves.
