Estimation of Flow Stress of Zinc-Titanium Strip during Reverse Rolling

Abstract:

Due to some specific features (high corrosion resistance and long-life durability in particular) as well as interesting aesthetic appeal, zinc-titanium strips are widely used as roof coverings, facade panels and rain gutters. The Zn-Ti strips are manufactured either in the hot rolling lines or in the reverse rolling mills at elevated temperatures. A problem of determination the average flow stress of zinc-titanium strip in the latter mentioned technology and in the actual rolling conditions is discussed in the paper. The analysis is based on the results of plastometric compression tests, FEM simulations and industrial practice.
