Fracture Analysis of High Chromium Cast Iron Roll on CSP Mill

摘要

A roll barrel breakdown accident took place on CSP mill. After investigating of the accident scene and the roll service condition, analysing the barrel fracture and sampling tests, proved that main cause for the roll breakdown was unusual and there appeared a strip-like crack on the boundary layer resulting from the initial flaws extending along the roll circle direction; furthermore, the flaws caused fatigue breakage along the roll inner cross section, which resulted in the barrel breakdown.
