INTRODUCTION
During rolling, the bar driven between two rolls rotating in opposite directions undergoes elongation and widening as a result of the compression between the rolls.
After a few definitions needed to understand rolling, we'll look at crushing, widening and elongation, and examine how deformation takes place inside the metal.
The complete study of the subject includes the articles :
M 7 900 - Rolling of long products: definitions and parameters (this article) ;
- Rolling of long products: cages and trains ;
- Rolling of long products: semi-finished and finished products ;
- Rolling of long products: rolls, sizing, defects and economic data;
- Rolling of long products.
