THERMOMECHANICAL ROLLING CLOSE TOLERANCE SIZING FOR IN-LINE PRODUCT QUALITY

摘要

As a conclusion it is possible to say that with the combination of the two rolling processes, namely: thermomechanical rolling and in-line sizing it is possible to produce materials which do not require the finishing cold working operation and normally there is no need for off-line secondary heat treatment. The resulting return on investment for the equipment is thus rapid.
