  2. Rolling (metalworking) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolling_(metalworking)

    Rolling schematic view Rolling visualization. In metalworking, rolling is a metal forming process in which metal stock is passed through one or more pairs of rolls to reduce the thickness, to make the thickness uniform, and/or to impart a desired mechanical property.

  3. Roll bonding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roll_bonding

    Roll bonding is a solid state, cold welding process, obtained through flat rolling of sheet metals. In roll bonding, two or more layers of different metals are passed through a pair of flat rollers under sufficient pressure to bond the layers. The pressure is high enough to deform the metals and reduce the combined thickness of the clad material.

  5. Roll forming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roll_forming

    Roll forming, also spelled roll-forming or rollforming, is a type of rolling involving the continuous bending of a long strip of sheet metal (typically coiled steel) into a desired cross-section. The strip passes through sets of rolls mounted on consecutive stands, each set performing only an incremental part of the bend, until the desired ...

  6. Plate rolling machine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plate_rolling_machine

    When rolling, the top roll presses the metal plate between the two side rolls. The advantage of having the variable three roll is the ability to roll many thicknesses and diameters of cylinders. For example; The side-rolls are what produce the mechanical advantage. With the side rolls all the way open, one has the maximum mechanical advantage ...

  7. Powder metallurgy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Powder_metallurgy

    The powdered metal is fed into a two-high rolling mill, [a] and is compacted into strip form at up to 100 feet per minute (0.5 m/s). The strip is then sintered and subjected to another rolling and further sintering. Rolling is commonly used to produce sheet metal for electrical and electronic components, as well as coins. Considerable work also ...

  8. Structural shape rolling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_shape_rolling

    Cross-sections of continuously rolled structural shapes, showing the change induced by each rolling mill. Structural shape rolling, also known as shape rolling and profile rolling, [1] is the rolling and roll forming of structural shapes by passing them through a rolling mill to bend or deform the workpiece to a desired shape while maintaining a constant cross-section.

  9. Tandem rolling mill - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tandem_rolling_mill

    A tandem rolling mill is a rolling mill used to produce wire and sheet metal. It is composed of two or more close-coupled [clarification needed] stands, and uses tension between the stands as well as compressive force from work rolls [clarification needed] to reduce the thickness of steel. It was first patented by Richard Ford in 1766 in England.
