Roll shape design for foil rolling of a four-high mill and rolling technology development

During foil rolling, back-up and work rolls undergo elastic deformation resulted from the rolling reaction force, which results in non-uniform thickness distribution in the width direction, even causes waves and fracture in the rolled foils. This paper aims to propose a mathematical model for a four-high mill to analyze the elastic deformation of the rolls and discuss the relationship between axial defection of the back-up and work rolls and the rolling conditions, from which the thickness distribution of the product is then predicted. The finite element simulation is also used to analyze the rolling force and roll¡¦s elastic deformation of a four-high mill. From the predicted foil shape, the roll profiles are designed. The mathematical model is validated by comparing the analytical thickness distribution with experiment values. Rolling pass schedules are also designed. From the arrangerement of reductions and heat treatment, experimental results of stainless steels foils with 80£gm thick and 2£gm variation, pure copper foils with 20£gm thick and 2£gm variation, and aluminum foils with 15£gm thick and 3£gm variation are successfully obtained. A rolling technology for foil rolling is developed.
