Water cooling systems

Thermocoil® cooling trains

The last stand shapes the bar. The water decides what it becomes.

After the finishing stand, controlled water cooling decides the final microstructure.

Water cooling line in operation
Water cooling line section in the workshop

Thermocoil® was developed by SKET in the 1980s for wire rod lines at product speeds up to 100 m/s; MWE carries it forward with the APROCS control system and has also extended it to bar mills.

BEISCO manufactures Thermocoil® cooling boxes, pipes and stripper nozzles to MWE design.

How a water cooling line works

The rolling is finished. The steel is still making up its mind.

Field note

Water is cheap. Getting it to the right place, for the right time, at up to 100 m/s is not.

Start with a drawing.

Or a worn part, a pass schedule, an output target. Tell us what the line needs, and an engineer will answer.
