In this paper, the simulation model of the cold rolling process of the deep groove bearing inner ring was established by using the finite element software Deform-3D. The numerical calculation of the model was made with different process parameters. The law of the influence the process parameters on the rolling force was analyzed.

There is a close relationship between cold ring rolling product quality and ring diameter growth rate in cold rolling process, but the technological parameters are main factors in influencing ring diameter growth. The paper used both numerical simulation and experimental verification to study the effect of the core roller speed and wide-diameter ratio on increment of ring diameter in cold rolling process of deep groove ball bearing inner ring. It is found that the core roller has greater influence on diameter growth, and the faster the feeding speed of core roller is , the greater the increment of ring diameter is. Finally, it is verified that the agreement between numerical simulation and experiments is good.

Ring parts of duplicate gear, double-side flange, high pressure value body, are widely used in engineering machinery, have the common geometrical characteristic of thick-wall, small-hole and deep-groove on the surface. High energy consumption, low material utilization, low productivity and poor quality exist in the current forging technology of this type of rings. In this paper, a new forming method for this type of rings named combined ring rolling (CRR) is proposed. The forming principle of CRR is introduced at first, then, a 3-D coupled thermo-mechanical FE model for the CRR process of a double-side flange ring is developed. By simulation and analysis, the feasibility of CRR technology is testified, and the evolution and distribution rules of stain, temperature, force and power in the rolling process are revealed. The results provide the guideline for the research and development of CRR technology.

Due to the influence of rolling force fluctuations, tube size changes and material uniformity and other factors, vibration and other phenomenon inevitably occur in the rolling process of tandem rolling mill. This vibration has a great impact on the dynamic stability of the mill and rolling reduction, and will significantly reduce the dimensional accuracy and surface quality of seamless steel pipe. In this paper, the non-linear finite element software ABAQUS is used to simulate the rolling process of seamless steel pipe. First, rolling force of the first frame with the maximum rolling force of PQF rolling mill is calculated. The reliability of rolling force calculated by the finite element method is verified by the test experiment. The dynamic response analysis of the roll is carried out to obtain the dynamic response curve of the roll in the rolling state and to provide technical support for the rolling schedule with the calculated rolling force being the load.

The rolling force will directly have influence on the size of high-neck flange and whether the rolled part will be shaped successfully. Finite element model of closed ring rolling high-neck flange was established, the effect of process parameters on rolling force and its reasons are analyzed. The results show that, the higher feeding speed is, the larger the amplification of rolling force will be, in addition, rolling force will be reduced slightly with the increase of rotational speed of driving roller, and the influence on the rolling force of compressing roller’s feeding speed is much larger than driving roller’s rotational speed.

Ring rolling is an incremental bulk forming process. Hence, the process consists of a large number of alternating deformations and dwell steps. For accurate calculations of material flow and thus ring geometry and rolling forces in hot ring rolling processes, it seems necessary to consider material softening due to static and post dynamic recrystallization which could occur between two deformation steps. In addition, due to the large number of cycles, the modeling results, especially the prediction of grain size, can easily be affected by uncertainties in the input data. However, for small rings and ring material with slow recrystallization kinetics, the interpass times can be short compared to the softening kinetics and the effect of softening can be so small, that microstructure evolution and the description of the materials flow behavior can be de-coupled. In this paper, a semi-empirical JMAK-based model for a stainless steel (1.4301/ X5CrNi18-9/ AISI304) is presented and evaluated by the use of experiments and other investigations published in [1],[2]. Finite Element (FE) simulations of a ring rolling process with a high number of ring revolutions and thus multiple, incremental forming steps were conducted based on ring rolling experiments. The FE simulation results were validated with the experimentally derived rolling force and evolution of ring diameter. The microstructure evolution was calculated in a post processing step considering the investigated evolution of strain and temperature. In this calculation the interrelations between the fraction of dynamically recrystallized microstructure, the evolution of post-dynamically recrystallized microstructure and the final grain size have been considered. Both, the calculated final microstructure and the evolution of rolling force and ring geometry calculated stand in good agreement with the experimental investigations.

Cold rolled thin strip has received a great deal of attention through technological and theoretical progress in the rolling process, as well as from researchers who have focused on some essential parameters of strip such as its shape and profile. This paper describes the development of a 3-D finite element model of the shape of thin strip during cold rolling to simulate the cold rolling of WCS (work roll crossing and shifting) in asymmetric rolling. This finite element model considers the asymmetrical rolling parameters such as variations in the diameters of the rolls and the crossing angle as the work roll shifts on the strip during cold rolling. The shape and profile of the strip are discussed in the asymmetrical and symmetrical rolling conditions, while the total rolling force and distribution of stress are discussed in the case where the roll cross angle and axial shifting roll changes. The results can then be used to control the shape and profile of thin strip during rolling.

Guide rolls play an important role in controlling both the ring circularity and the stability of cold ring rolling process. However, it is difficult to predict and control the motion of the guide rolls due to the complexity of process associated with the coupled effects of multi-factors. In this paper, a reasonable controlling model of the guide rolls is proposed, and the functional relationship between the motion track of the guide rolls and their setup parameters and process ones is established, by which the guide rolls motion track can be determined. On this basis, a 3D-FE simulation model for cold ring rolling is developed under the ABAQUS software environment and the effects of the initial position and motion track of the guide rolls on the forming stability, ring circularity, rolling force, and oscillating are investigated. Taking the forming stability and ring circularity as objects, the optimum initial position and motion track of the guide rolls are obtained.

A generalized upper bound solution for the deformation of ring in the ring rolling process has been formulated. An admissible velocity field and strain rates are derived from the parametric definition of streamlines in the deformation zone. This new formulation was used to predict the upper bound on power. Minimizing the upper bound power with respect to neutral point position, the neutral point position and the rolling force were determined. Using the theory presented here, the variation of internal, shear, frictional and total powers with respect to ring revolution are discussed. Some of the results obtained from analysis were compared with experimental results.
