Read MoreAutomation and Thickness Control in Hot Strip Mill The economic efficiency of metal rolling processes is strongly correlated to the quality level of the end-rolled products. Rolling of flat steel products is a complex process where the quality of the product is influenced by a range of factors such as incoming material, mechanical and electrical …
Read MoreRolling Mill Stands The purpose of rolling is to convert material of large cross-sections of long work pieces into smaller sections of various shapes. This deformation is accomplished by applying compressive forces through a set of two rolls which rotate in opposite directions, the space between the rolls being less than the thickness of the …
