Abstract An analysis of the roll wear in the multi-strand rolling of reinforced concrete ribbed bars has been made in the study. In the technology under consideration, the longitudinal partition of the band takes place in special slitting passes, while the separation of individual strands – in idle separating rollers. During rolling, the slitting passes undergo fast wear compared to the remaining passes of the rolling line. The paper reports the results of theoretical and experimental examinations, on the basis of which the wear of the slitting passes in the 16 mm-diameter ribbed bar three-strand rolling process has been determined. The theoretical examination was done using the Forge2011® software program, while experimental tests were carried out in a D350 medium-size continuous rolling mill. Based on the analysis of the investigation results, the wear coefficient was established for the slitting passes, which allowed the determination of their quantitative wear.

This paper presents selected numerical and experimental results of a skew rolling process for producing balls using helical tools. The study investigates the effect of the billet’s initial temperature on the quality of produced balls and the rolling process itself. In addition, the effect of billet diameter on the quality of produced balls is investigated. Experimental tests were performed using a helical rolling mill available at the Lublin University of Technology. The experiments consisted of rolling 40 mm diameter balls with the use of two helical tools. To determine optimal rolling parameters ensuring the highest quality of produced balls, numerical modelling was performed using the finite element method in the Forge software. The numerical analysis involved the determination of metal flow kinematics, temperature and damage criterion distributions, as well as the measurement of variations in the force parameters. The results demonstrate that the highest quality balls are produced from billet preheated to approximately 1000 °C.

In the contact area of offset, a relative slide occurs between the surface of plate cylinder and blanket cylinder, which changes the print image and influences the printing quality. The relative slide in the cylinders’ rolling process is investigated, and the determination rule of cylinders’ geometric parameters of offset press is proposed. The results show that the relative slide is minimization under the condition that the compression of elastic cylinder radius is 0.2 times bigger than that of rigid cylinder radius, and the deformation of print image and dot gain both are minimization. The results provide theoretical direction for accurate determination of cylinder radius of offset press.

Thermal parameters of a work-roll play an important role in the modeling of the rolling process, due to periodic thermal loading. The knowledge of thermal parameters is also vital in understanding the fatigue life of the work-roll and the thermal crown. However, estimation of the thermal parameters viz., thermal conductivity, thermal diffusivity and convective heat transfer coefficients at both, inner and outer roll periphery is tough to realize during the rolling process. Various methods employed earlier for measuring the thermal properties of work-rolls in the rolling process requires intrusion in the surface of the work-rolls, mainly to embed the thermocouples inside the rolls. These methods are easy to implement, but it is really hard to achieve truthful estimation. A possible way out is to measure the average thermal parameters of a work roll in the rolling process by utilizing the measured temperature at two specified locations on the work-roll surface. In this work, an inverse method is proposed to estimate the thermal properties and convective heat transfer coefficients of a roll in the rolling process. The inverse method makes use of a direct model of temperature determination considering plane strain problem, which is based on the integral transform method. For minimizing the error between the computed and experimentally recorded data, a quasi-Newton method is used. In lieu of shop floor experiments, a finite element method (FEM) based package ABAQUS 6.10 is used to obtain the temperature distribution in the work-roll. Further, an additive white Gaussian error is added in the FEM simulated measurements to assess the inverse method for stability towards mild measurements. The inverse estimation is successfully validated and can be used in shop floor for the online determination of thermal parameters of the work-rolls in the rolling process.

Tools which generate by enveloping using the rolling method may be profiled using various methods. The substitutive circles family method is a complementary method developed based a specifically theorem, in which is determined a family of circles associated with the blank’s centrode, family which envelop the profile to be generate. The method assumes the determination of the circles family, transposed in the rolling process between the blank and tool centrodes. In this paper is proposed an algorithm for curling surfaces in enveloping, associated with a pair of rolling circular centrodes. The graphical algorithm is based on the representation of the circles family enveloped the blank’s profile. It is generated the circles family transposed on the centrode associated with the gear shaped cutter and is determined a new position of contact points with the blank. The assembly of these points forms the profile of the gear shaped cutter. The numerical data proof the proposed method quality.

The texture of recrystallized straight-rolled α-uranium foils, a component in prospective irradiation target designs for medical isotope production, has been measured by neutron diffraction, as well as X-ray diffraction using both Cu and Mo sources. Variations in the penetration depth of neutron and X-ray radiation allow for determination of both the bulk and surface textures. The bulk α-uranium foil texture is similar to the warm straight-rolled plate texture, with the addition of a notable splitting of the (001) poles along the transverse direction. The surface texture of the foils is similar to the bulk, with an additional (001) texture component that is oriented between the rolling and normal directions. Differences between the surface and bulk textures are expected to arise from shear forces during the rolling process and the influence that distinct strain histories have on subsequent texture evolution during recrystallization.

Most of the sheet metals in general exhibit high an-isotropic plasticity behavior due to the ordered grain orientation that occurred during the rolling process. This results in an uneven deformation yield property that tends to develop ears in case of deep-drawing operation. The deep drawing process is used for the production of cup-shaped articles having applications in automobiles, beverages, home appliances etc. It is essential to know the formability of sheet metals for minimisation of test runs and reducingthe defects. Forming Limit Diagram (FLD) is one of the methods for assessment of formability of sheetmetals. This paper describes various deformation models, yielding and an-isotropic properties and itsdetermination. Through experimental tests, FLD constructed for aluminium alloy AA6111 sheet metalhaving 0.9 mm thickness.

The main idea of multi slit rolling (MSR) technology is the capability of producing two, three, four and even five rods simultaneously from a single strip in a hot rolling process. Correct separation of the joined strips is one of the major problems in the MSR process. High tensile stresses (perpendicular to the rolling direction) are generated during movement of the band by the slitting rolls in the joining bridge. Critical value of the slitting criterion is mainly affected by geometry of the slitting rolls (angle, dimension and mass of the slitting rolls), temperature of the band and rolling speed. This paper presents results of numerical analysis of influence of the slitting roll angle on value of normalized Cockroft – Latham criterion during double slitting rolling process.
