Design Evaluation of Multiroll Mills for Small-diameter wire rolling Paper by K. Kuroda, T. Kuboki, Y. Imamura Background Wire rolling is being utilized rather than the more traditional wire drawing method of production. A round rod is used as a starting place for the ensuing rolling reductions. Purpose of the Paper Demonstrate differences in forces and advantages/disadvantages of wire rolling using different numbers of rollers Show wire rolling to be a good alternative to wire drawing, specifically wire rolling with multiple rollers Why? “Conversion from drawing to rolling ensures a high reduction in area per pass, because the severe sliding frictional condition is almost eliminated.” The Reality: most of the contact area of the rollers with the wire involves sliding friction, and no data is provided as a comparison between the two methods Comparison to Previous Work Many papers/studies had been previously been made examining the advantages and disadvantages of multiple rolls in wire manufacture Authors’ angle: “…none of the previous studies has compared the deformation and loading characteristics of the three mills on an even basis, i.e. on the same roll and groove geometry design basis, and direct one-to-one comparisons have not been made of all three mills on a numerical and experimental basis.” Authors’ Possible Motive “Such study may enable further development of the multiroll cold wire rolling mill in the next decade.” The authors created a four-roll micromill named the ‘super-micromill’ Objectives in Design There was to be no tension in the wire between stands (as opposed to the drawing method) Driving torque given from one source to all stands through a common drive (one motor) Compact design Limitations of Experimentation Only to examine 2, 3 and 4 roll stands Stand composed of more than five rolls is not realistic because of complexity Why a 5 roll stand is not examined… The Setup 2 roll unit driven by two shafts 3 and 4 roll unit driven by single sha
