The Influence of Work Roller Diameter on Shape of Strip in Stainless Steel Cold Strip Rolling Process with Numerical Simulation Method

Article Preview

Abstract:

In order to study the effects of work roller diameter on shape of strip in cold strip rolling process, the ANSYS/LS-DYNA software was employed to simulate rolling process of 2mm thickness stainless steel. It is found that the average of stress decrease along with the increasing diameter of the work roller.But this variation is about 1%.The stressstrain curve go more steady and the shape of strip become better along with the decreasing of the work roller diameter. In this paper the three kinds of rolling process will produce tiny waves edge. The waves edge was the most obvious when the work roller diameter is 60mm.
