Abstract
In this research, a modified method of the conventional accumulative roll-bonding (ARB) process, named cross accumulative roll-bonding (CARB), was applied on an AA1050 strip for up to 13 cycles. The planar uniformity of the mechanical properties in the products of ARB and CARB processes has not been investigated yet. This article aims to compare the planar inhomogeneity of the tensile properties in different directions of the rolling plane of the ARB- and CARB-processed specimens. For this purpose, uniaxial tensile tests were performed in the rolling, transverse, and diagonal directions of the products. Furthermore, Vickers microhardness was used to investigate the hardness distribution throughout the thickness of specimens. The results revealed that the CARB process exhibited higher tensile strength, elongation, and hardness with more homogeneous distribution of the hardness and particularly better planar uniformity of the tensile properties compared with the conventional ARB process.
