A Wire Rod Rolling Mill Digital Twin for the Simulation of the Rolls Replacement Process

Investigation and Simulation of Wire Non-Asymmetric Rolling Process

The non-asymmetric rolling process of copper and brass wire has been simulated with the Abaqus software. Presented finite element model in this simulation of rolling predicted output curvature and contact surface width in the non-asymmetric mode (in equality of diameter of rollers, the rotational speed of the rollers and the rollers’ surface finish). The material used in this research has strai...

Reeling Mechanism for Wire Rod Rolling Mills

Experimental Research on Durability in Exploitation of Rolling Mill Rolls

Having in view the statistical data calculated for 10 years, the total consumption of rolling mill rolls represents 0 785...0 8 kg/tone of rolled steel. Nationwide, the 5 million tones steel being rolled every year represents a consumption of 4000 tones rolls, worth 6 million euro/year, which imposes large research with an important economic and scientific impact [1-6] It is noticeable that app...

Effect of the asymmetrical rolling process on the micro hardness and microstructure of brass wire

Current experimental investigation deals with the effects of asymmetrical rolling parameters on the inhomogeneity, microstructure, mechanical, and geometrical properties of rolled brass wire. Toward this end, a roll machine with three different roll radii ratios was set up. The asymmetrical conditions are arranged using three different sets of rolls with different diameters that result into dif...

investigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures

deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...
