Role of cold rolling texture and heating rate on final texture and magnetic induction in electrical steels

The static recrystallisation behaviour of cold rolled and annealed TWinning Induced Plasticity (TWIP) steels is important for its industrial production. The recrystallisation kinetics have been determined for an Fe-Mn-C-Si-Al TWIP steel using hardness measurements and microstructure analysis: it has been shown that recrystallisation progresses rapidly with increased annealing temperature. Recrystallisation was faster at higher cold reductions, and a smaller final grain size was observed at lower annealing temperatures. This indicates that the mechanism is nucleation dominated at lower temperatures; grain growth at higher temperatures appears similar for all reductions. The recrystallisation results in a crystallographic texture where the main components of the cold rolling texture are preserved in the final texture after annealing, although some randomisation was observed.

Cold Rolling Texture

Cold rolling is widely employed in the manufacturing industry for the production of metal plates. In the cold rolling process, the thickness reduction of the metal plate under the recrystallization temperature generates severe anisotropy; this influences the subsequent forming processes. Therefore, the generation and prediction of metal plate anisotropy during cold rolling is a highly interesting research topic involving upstream studies of sheet metal forming. In this study, using the finite element method with zooming analysis, we established an efficient elastic–plastic analysis method to predict the metal plate texture after cold rolling. This method for cold rolling texture prediction was confirmed by comparing the experimental and simulation results of cold rolling for an S45C plate with a body-centered cubic lattice. Further, the numerical analysis method proposed in this study can contribute to the study of anisotropy as an alternative to experimental approaches.
