Objective
The removal of hot straightened sections from stacked piles and the cutting of long straightened rails to delivery length severely affect the straightness of the products. Re-straightening and adapting the production process to the cooling conditions have negative effects on productivity.
The objective of this project is to determine the fundamental correlations between the straightening temperature and the straightening process by detailed analyses of straightness deviations an the basis of experimental investigations on operational and pilot plants as well as computer-based model simulations.
Based on this knowledge measures will be derived that will ensure the straightness of sections or rails even if the straightening process takes place at elevated temperatures.
