Abstract

The cold rolling process is a strain-hardening mechanism, which is widely known for its strength improvement, excellent surface finish and dimensional tolerance. This work aims to model and simulate the first pass of the industrial cold rolling process of Aluminium 8015 alloy. Process parameters are obtained from practical industrial cold rolling of the aluminium alloy and are used in the development of 2-D and 3-D finite element models for the first pass. These were achieved using the MSC Marc-Mentat Software. Research results comprising of the roll force, contact frictional force, and shear stress were investigated. Findings reveal the deformation rate pattern and neutral points in the roll bite. The 3-D finite element model developed is effective in analyzing deformation of metals in the roll bite as compared to the 2-D model.
