Production Methods of Thin, Narrow and Profiled Steel Strips

Abstract:

This paper is a synthetic presentation of the current state of knowledge on the fundamentals of cold production of thin and narrow steel strips. Such strips are semi-finished products used to manufacture final products which are widely used in a number of industries. The production devices are characterised and methods as well as technologies of their manufacture are discussed. For cases where wire is flattened to obtain strips with naturally rounded edges, the deformation phases with a uniform and non-uniform draft across the width of the strip have been identified. Changes in the widening coefficient and the rounding radius of the strip edge are described for these phases as a function of draft.
