The effect of cross rolling on the microstructure of ferrous and non-ferrous metals and alloys
The cross rolling is the one of most perspective method of refinement microstructure metals by severe plastic deformation method. This method gives ability to get the long length billets. However, deformation and trajectories of the metal is very heterogeneous across the section of the rolled piece. This paper presents the finite element method (FEM) simulation of hot cross rolling and experimental study of the effect of the cross rolling on a different threeroll mills on the microstructure of ordinary structural alloy steel, stainless steel and technical copper in different zones of the bar. Analysis showed significant structure refinement in all cases. The best result was achieved on the stainless steel, and shown the formation of equal-axis ultra-fine-grain structure on the bar periphery
