The Relationship

The mechanical properties of steels are heavily deteriorated by voids. The influence of voids on the product quality should be eliminated through rolling processes. The study on the void closure during hot rolling processes is necessary. In present work, the closure behavior of voids at the center of a slab at 800 °C during hot rolling processes has been simulated with a 3D finite element model. The shape of the void and the plastic strain distribution of the slab are obtained by this model. The void decreases along the slab thickness direction and spreads along the rolling direction but hardly changes along the strip width direction. The relationship between closure behavior of voids and the plastic strain at the center of the slab is analyzed. The effects of rolling reduction, slab thickness and roller diameter on the closure behavior of voids are discussed. The larger reduction, thinner slab and larger roller diameter all improve the closure of voids during hot rolling processes. Experimental results of the closure behavior of a void in the slab during hot rolling process mostly agree with the simulation results..

Rolling Efficiency

A 3-D thermal-mechanical model was built to simulate the hot rolling process of medium plate, with the aid of nonlinear commercial FE code MSC.SuperForm on a company's actual process parameters. The hot rolling process of single-pass which slab thickness is 180mm was simulated, and the influence of pass reduction on metal flow, stress-strain field, contact stress and rolling force were researched. The study revealed that pass reduction should be at least 20% by increase depress in pass in addition to rolling efficiency. As that, rolling efficiency be increased, roll contact stress be brought down, and its service life be prolonged. And metal plastic strain enhanced, metal flow increased, but its strain field non-uniformly distributed, metal flow and plastic deformation would be strengthen by increase pass reduction, and the lateral broadening in the head is bigger than that in the tail.

Single Strip

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.

The Relationship

In aluminum hot rolling process, strip thickness difference plays a more important role in deviation. An FE model was presented to simulate the rolling process in which strip thickness difference was taken as a horizontal asymmetry factor of disturbance. Parameters information of nodes is processed, with the characteristic quantity of deviation and the asymmetrical thickness difference rate calculated. The result of simulation illustrates the deviation result under the disturbance of thickness difference, and the relationship among deviation function, characteristic quantity of deviation and the asymmetrical thickness difference rate. Deviation tracks under these circumstances are figured out. The effect of thickness difference on deviation in aluminum tandem hot rolling is revealed.

The governing equations and the finite element model for the coupled thermo-mechanical multi-pass vertical-horizontal rolling process of a zircaloy strip are established. Considering the temperature-dependent and strain rate-dependent constitutive relation of zircaloy, the numerical simulation of the three-pass V-H rolling process is realized by the coupled thermo-mechanical dynamic explicit finite element method. The computational results such as the plastic deformation, the size variations and the temperature variations in three passes are discussed. The research results indicate that edging by vertical roller benefits improving the sizes of the strip and the temperature variations are rather obvious during the three-pass hot rolling process. The research provides experience and foundations for the FEM simulation of the hot rolling process of composite slabs for nuclear fuel elements.

Rolling Load

In the hot rolling process, the steel slab may experience a temperature gradient along its transverse direction which may cause camber and wedge after rolling. Camber and wedge phenomenon will affect the quality of the steel plate. To eliminate camber and wedge phenomenon, a pair of side guides is placed before and behind the hot rolling mill. The position mode and the force mode are the control modes for side guides to correct the slab shape and to guide the slab to follow rolling direction. Finite element analysis using ABAQUS was applied to simulate hot rolling process to find the correction mechanism of rolling equipment. The centerline of slab was traced and the shape of slab was predicted. The difference of rolling load between work side and drive side of roller was determined. Furthermore, the load, stress and velocity distribution on the slab at roll bite were analyzed. By using numerical model, hot rolling parameters including side guide control strategy can be predicted, which can provide the hot rolling line as a guideline to improve the quality of the steel slab.

Computational simulation has become more important in the design of thermomechanical processing since it allows the optimization of associated parameters such as temperature, stresses, strains and phase transformations. This work presents the results of the three-dimensional Finite Element Method (FEM) simulation of the hot rolling process of a medium Mn steel using DEFORM-3D software. Temperature and effective strain distribution in the surface and center of the sheet were analyzed for different rolling passes; also the change in damage factor was evaluated. According to the hot rolling simulation results, experimental hot rolling parameters were established in order to obtain the desired microstructure avoiding the presence of ferrite precipitation during the process. The microstructural characterization of the hot rolled steel was carried out using optical microscopy (OM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). It was found that the phases present in the steel after hot rolling are austenite and α′-martensite. Additionally, to understand the mechanical behavior, tensile tests were performed and concluded that this new steel can be catalogued in the third automotive generation.
