Abstract

The paper deals with solutions to particular process problems in production of thin sheets of special nickel and iron-based alloys. Experiments were focused on trial operation of a new melting furnace, on hot rolling of feedstock from experimental heats and on fine-tuning hot and cold rolling processes with the aid of numerical modelling in DEFORM 3D software. The paper also gives description of results of FEM simulation of cold rolling of strips. A FEM model of the cold rolling process with front and back tension was developed. In order to describe the behaviour of nickel alloys in the FEM simulation, a specific material model was proposed. This material model combines the material data obtained from Rastegaev compression test and the results of thermodynamical calculation from JMatPro software.
