    In the paper, it is introduced the development of DH40 high-strength steel plate with studying the rolling and normalizing technologies, testing the mechanical properties as well as analyzing the microstructure and effects of normalizing technology on mechanical properties of steel plate combining with the test results. The results showed that the mechanical properties of steel plate could be adjusted appropriately by proper normalizing heat treatment process system. Due to the problem of center segregation for microstructure of plate, the process factors at each stage and their relation need to be explored continuously to eliminate the banded structure.

    In this paper, the composition design, process parameters and results of trial production in laboratory for Q690CF high strength steel with rare earth and low welding crack susceptibility are introduced. Its strength level could meet the standard requirements as well as the strength and toughness match well by adopting reasonable chemical composition system, controlled rolling and controlled cooling as well as off-line quenching and tempering process; the component requirements of welding without preheating can be met by reducing the carbon equivalent (Ceq) and welding crack susceptibility index (Pcm) so that it is with an extensive market development prospect.

    In the production process of 2 250 mm production line in Baotou Steel, the main quality problems are the problems of strip shape. Roller is the important large tool used in the production of hot rolling unit and its roll shape directly affects the ability of rolling mill to regulate and control strip shape. In the paper, it is introduced the corresponding technical researches on roll shape of roller in the rolling process of rare earth steel with 2 250 mm production line as well as the ability of rolling mill to regulate and control strip shape is enhanced through optimizing the roll shape of working roll for finishing mill group so that the roller can serve production better.

    In the paper, it is introduced there is fracture in the process of drawing SWRH82B wire rod sample. It is found out that the main causes for fracture of 82B are high carbon content in the center of sample and existing fragility phase-network cementite through analyzing the SWRH82B wire rod sample, while the cause for high carbon content in the center of sample is the serious center segregation of continuous casting billet.

    The extracting mill with shaft is the important component of PQF unit and the production practices prove that the center of stand cannot coincide with the center of roll pass in production due to there are not any detection methods for the center of stand for extracting mill with shaft at present so that 500~800 mm of head end for steel tube is bent in steel rolling process. In the paper, the method for measuring center of stand is found out by analyzing the structure of stand for extracting mill and improving the measuring implement.

    The production line of Φ460 mm seamless steel tube in Steel Tube Co. of Baotou Steel adopts the world advanced PQF continuous rolling technology and the continuous rolling mill is with the retained rack of mandrel system. In the movement process of retained rack of mandrel, the fast speed response is required and the position must be accurate when it stops. For control, the position control mode of different positions of periods with different speeds is adopted to ensure reliable requirements for production and control. The torque balance control can effectively solve the problems of push-pull force and unbalanced load between motors.
