FundamentalofMaterialsForming-RollingofMetals金屬軋制Rolling軋制Rollingistheprocessofreducingthethickness(orchangingthecross-section)ofalongworkpiecebycompressiveforcesappliedthroughasetofrolls(Fig.13.1);軋制是通過一些軋輥對(duì)一個(gè)長(zhǎng)坯料進(jìn)行加壓使其厚度減薄或者界面形狀發(fā)生變化的工藝。Theprocessissimilartotherollingofdough(面團(tuán)）witharollingpin（搟面杖）toreduceitsthickness.Rolling,whichaccountsforabout90%ofallmetalsproducedbymetalworkingprocesses,wasfirstdevelopedinthelate1500s.Thebasicoperationisflatrolling.扁平孔型軋制,orsimplyrolling,wheretherolledproductsareflatplateandsheet.Sheetsaregenerallylessthan6mmthick.Theyareusedforautomobileandaircraftbodies,appliances(儀表),foodandbeverages(飲料）containers,andkitchenandofficeequipment.appliances
