Reliable process models assisted by modern simulation software can provide long rolling operators with great insight into the whole process, which must address the dimensional accuracy, the mechanical properties and microstructure. Using a FEM technique based on DEFORM code, Primetals developed and applied the new EVO Roll Master technological platform, which defines the overall process arrangement, from grooves to pass schedule, be it in an alternating breakdown sequence for blooms or in a continuous mill for bars and sections. Through the clear understanding of the actual material flow, a better control of material microstructure and properties is obtained.
