A New Calculating Model of Rolling Pressure during Temper Rolling Process

Abstract

A set of new mathematical models have been developed to calculate the temper rolling force of 2050 strip temper rolling mill. Based on the fact of small plastic deformation and elastic deformation occurring on the entry and exit of the deformation zone, new stress boundary conditions are described. The inhomogeneous distribution of internal stress in thickness direction is taken into account in the models, instead of uniform internal stress and assumption of plane strain traditionally. The new mathematical models have been applied into the temper rolling of 2050 hot rolling mills with good results. Comparison of calculated values and testing values for nine typical products has been given. The result shows that the calculated value of rolling force of temper mill is accurate.
