<p>The present invention is to tension and guide hot strip for coiling in a hot strip mill, the hot strip mill includes a runout table with driven rollers (18, 20) for delivering hot strip from a train of finishing mill stands (10, 12, 14, 16) along a pass line of a runout table to a coiler (24). The coiler having driven mandrel (44) for coiling strip thereon and pinch rolls (26, 28) having an operative position to direct the leading end of strip from the runout table to the coiler and tension the deflected leading end portion of strip during the formation of initial convolutions of coiled strip on the driven mandrel. Gag roll assembly (22) includes gag rolls (66, 68) upstream of the pinch rolls at the runout table for tensioning strip conveyed by the runout table after a trailing strip end emerges from the train of finishing mill stands. An actuator (62) for moves the gag roll assembly from an inoperative position remote to the pass line on the runout table into an operative position wherein strip is deflected from the pass line sufficiently to partly wrap about a roll face surface of the gag roll thereby tensioning the strip during coiling. The gag rolls are driven by motors (74) to maintain a synchronous speed relation between the roll surface of the gag rolls and the speed of the strip to avoid scratching or marking of the strip.</p> |
