For thin sheet metal with a thickness less than 200 μm (0.0079 in), [citation needed] the rolling is done in a cluster mill because the small thickness requires a small diameter rolls. [10] To reduce the need for small rolls pack rolling is used, which rolls multiple sheets together to increase the effective starting thickness.
The Z-Mill or Sendzimir Mill is a machine for rolling steels. [1] [2] Unlike a traditional rolling mill this 20-high cluster mill configuration utilizes cascaded supporting rolls to apply force on the small work rolls in the center. This allows the application of a higher roll pressure without bending the work rolls, which would result in poor ...
It can be also called a “roll bending machine”, “plate bending machine” or “rolling machine”. There are different kinds of technology to roll the metal plate: Four-roller machines have a top roll, the pinching roll, and two side rolls. The flat metal plate is placed in the machine on either side and "pre-bent" on the same side.
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.
The operator of the machine passes the sheet metal between the anvil wheel and the rolling wheel. This process stretches the material and causes it to become thinner. As the material stretches, it forms a convex surface over the anvil wheel. [1] This surface is known as "crown".
The heart of the temper mill is the cold rolling mill stand which produces the temper pass. It will include electric powered drive motors and speed reduction gearing suited to the process desired. The design of the rolling mill can be a 2-high or 4-high (even 6-high in some cases). The mill stand can be work roll driven or back up roll driven.
