History
Manufactured by FALCI in ITALY.
There are only four mills of this type in all over the world.
In India, Profile mill generally comes into the picture after
1995.
And it is brought to India in 1996.
Introduction
The Profile Rolling Mill is a new concept in India and has some unique features.
It has a state of the art manufacturing facility for producing 6000 MT per annum of
hot rolled & cold drawn solid steel sections with close dimensional tolerances.
The uniqueness of this latest technology lies in the fact that the profiles are rolled
from wire rods that are continuously heated on-line with electrical resistance heaters,
unlike from billets that are heated in fuel fired furnaces in conventional rolling mills.
Introduction
Unlike extrusion, where molten metal is pushed
through a die to obtain the required shape, the hot
rolling process involves shaping of the heated billets
or wire rods by passing through a set of rolls that are
rotating in opposite direction.
The rolls have groves cut in it as per the specific roll
pass design and each roll has a different set of
groves. These profiles or sections have the same
shape or cross section throughout the length.

Profile hot rolling process
The profile hot rolling process is divided in to two
processes.
• Manufacturing of the rolls
• Process on rolling mill
Manufacturing of rolls
This process is considered as pre-rolling process.
The complicate profile shape is grooved first on rolls
and afterward by pressing steel rod between rolls, the
required profile is obtained.
This process contains other processes like,
• Template making
• Profiling of Grinding wheel
• Profiling of Rolls
PROCESS ON ROLLING MILL
Uncoiler
Straightner
Chain puller

Uncoiler
Also called raw material
holding equipment.
The raw material of hot
rolled wire in its coiled
form loaded on
uncoiler.
used for uncoiling the
raw material.
Straightner
Converts uneven shape in to the straight form.
It carries total 18 rollers. First nine rollers straight the
raw material vertically and remaining nine
horizontally.
Raw material has one line passage to pass.
The coil end is pulled up to straightening machine by
the chain of the bar gripper on the winch drum,
provided on the straightening machine.
Heating zone
The temperature of rod is increased.
Three heating elements, which are called heating
zone 1, 2 & 3.
Each heating zone is connected with electric load of
1000 KVA and 380 Volts. The current is passed in
increasing order through each zone.
The heating zone 3 has maximum current about 800
to 1000 amp. , which differs with the different raw
materials.
At zone 3 the raw material rod becomes red hot.
