The earlier production of plate iron in Europe had been by forging, and not by rolling mills. The real turning point in the sheet metal production took place with the introduction of the rolling mill.
As a major steel production technology, cold rolling processes have a strong influence on the final quality of rolled products. Traditionally, cold rolling mill rolls present a controlled surface topography that is imprinted onto the sheet during forming and are often coated, particularly using hard chrome deposition.
The advantages of Rolling process are as follows. By rolling, uniform dimensions of the components can be obtained. It uses the same tool in the sense, the same rollers are responsible for the production of various components. Close tolerance is possible for the components in the rolling. high-speed production takes place in the rolling.

Cold rolling is a work hardening process used to change the structure of metals and is often used to process stainless steel. Cold rolled stainless steel as a raw material has a wide variety of applications in medical, aerospace and automotive engineering. Read on to learn more about what cold rolled steel is, how it's produced, and what it can be used for.
SMS group offers Seamless tube plants designed as PQF or MPM mill as well as CPE/TPE mills, Push bench, Assel mills, Plug mills and Hot and Cold pilger mills.
Chatter phenomenon in the rolling mills is the undesired mechanical vibrations which reduces the productivity and quality of the products. Many studies have led to the point that friction is one of the most effective factors incurring chatter. In this paper, a chatter simulation model for the tandem cold rolling mills based on the well-known Coulomb …
The degree of surface preparation for an overlay is dependent on the condition and type of the existing pavement. Generally, the existing pavement should be structurally sound, level, clean and capable of bonding to the overlay. To meet these prerequisites, the existing pavement is usually repaired, leveled (by milling, preleveling or both ...

Count on Primetals Technologies for efficient plate mill solutions, ensuring top-quality metal production.
If a mill rolls 80 % of the calendar year, that is 365 x 24 x 0.80 = 7008 hours. If the mill rolls 800,000 tons per year, it runs at an average production rate of 114.16 tons/hour. If the utilization can be improved by 1 %, the available rolling hours is 365 x 24 x 0.81 = 7096.6, creating 87.6 extra rolling hours.
