Cold rolling mill for thin foil and strip

A rolling mill has a roll stand 1 in a plane 2-2 of a building 37, a wind-off reel 6 arranged in a plane 5-5 above the plane 2-2, and a winding-up roll 8 for the rolled strip 9 standing on a plane 7-7. Two working rolls 12, 13 and two backing rolls 16, 17 are arranged horizontally in the roll stand 1. Screw-down forces F are applied horizontally to the ends of the backing rolls 16, 17 and bending forces are applied horizontally and vertically to the ends of the working rolls 12, 13. Rolled strip 9 runs in the vertical direction through the rolling gap 18 between the working rolls 12, 13. Feed boxes 23 arranged over the rolls ensure optimum lubrication and cooling of the rolls by laminar application of a film of oil to the rolls. Such cooling of the rolls provides optimum regulation of strip flatness.
