In multi-stand cold rolling mills an accurate synchronization of the mill drives is necessary for a good product quality and for a safe process operation. During the standard commissioning procedure the control performance of each drive is optimized individually. However, in normal operation mode the performance is then not always optimal due to the coupling of the drives by the strip being rol...

 One of the surface defects that arise in sheet metal working is when the part removes from the die. Since there are no external forces to make this defect, the origin of such fail is known as residual stress. Residual stress can develop in sheet metal forming due to non uniform deformation. In this paper, the workpiece is carbon steel with different volume fractions and arrangement of ferrite ...

In this paper an analytical model for cold rolling of strip has been described. This model is developed based on the slab method of analysis and the hydrodynamic lubrication. The characteristics of rolling are obtained from the equations of equilibrium and the plate was allowed to strain harden assuming that the lubricant behaves as a Newtonian fluid. The shear stress to the plate is obtained b...

Shape is an important quality index of cold rolling strip. Up to now, many problems in the shape control domain have not been solved satisfactorily, and a review on the research progress in the shape control domain can help to seek new breakthrough directions. In the past 10 years, researches and applications of shape control models, shape control means, shape detection technology, and shape co...
