Abstract

Three-high screw-rolling of aluminum alloy ingots was carried out at 12- and 20-degrees rolls feed angles. The ingots had two copper, cylindrical inserts oriented along the ingot axis: the center of one insert coincided with the ingot’s center, and the center of the other insert coincided with the ingot’s half-radius. The effect of the rolls feed angle value on the aluminum and copper microstructure as well as the hardness formation was established. X-ray study and three-dimensional modeling allowed the copper insert twisting angle to be estimated along the rolled billet axis. It also allowed detection of the number of breaks of the insert located in the ingot’s center and the insert located in the ingot’s half-radius depending on the rolls feed angle value.
