The continuous retained-mandrel rolling process is a promising method for titanium tube production with high efficiency and a short process. The importance of mandrel as a deformation tool supporting the inner wall is crucial. This paper thoroughly e...
The continuous tube-rolling method has been widely used to manufacture high-quality seamless pipes and tubes. However, the analytical model for determining the roll pitch diameter in three-roll continuous retained mandrel rolling from first principle...
Rolling force critically affects Fine Quality Mill (FQM) continuous rolling precision. The first stand, undergoing the largest reduction, determines subsequent entry conditions, requiring high prediction accuracy. Different from routine engineering-o...
A hot-working die steel thick-walled tube Pilger rolling test was carried out using an LG40 Pilger mill, and the morphology and roughness evolution of the inner surface were examined using a white-light interferometer. The experimental results showed...
