The Analytic Study on the Heavy Steel Plate Snake Rolling with the Same Roll Diameters

الملخص EN

The deformation in the inner region along the thickness of the heavy steel plate can be improved by snake rolling method.

Then the microstructure and property will be refined and the crack in the inner region may be avoided.

Therefore, the in-depth research on snake rolling method mechanics parameter modeling should be conducted to guide production.

A snake rolling process with the same roll diameters and different angular velocity was conducted in this paper.

The rolling deformation zone will be divided into back slip zone, front slip zone, cross shear zone, and reverse deflection zone according to the direction of the friction during the snake rolling process.

The four zones may not exist at the same time.

The boundary conditions of existence of the back slip zone, front slip zone, and cross shear zone were established according to the relationship between threading angle and neutral angle.

The calculating models which were used to calculate the snake rolling mechanical parameters including the rolling force and rolling torque were set up.

The calculated models of unit compressive pressure in the four zones were set up by the slab method, and on this basis the accurate calculating models of the rolling force and rolling torque were set up according to the composition of the rolling deformation zone and the boundary condition.

The mechanical parameters were calculated by the analytical method and the numerical method, and the relative deviation is less than 6% which can satisfy the industrial requirement.

The present analytical model can predict the characteristics during snake rolling easily and quickly and it is also suitable for online control applications.
