Abstract
This work presents a simplified means to determine the axial contact pressure distribution between two pinched, flexible, rubber-clad, cylindrical rolls that are aligned with axes skewed. Of particular interest is the effect of the skew angle on the axial contact pressure distribution. A finite element model is used with beam elements to model the bending of the roll cores and spring elements to model the load-indentation relationship between the rubber coatings. Numerical results of contact pressure and contact width vs axial location are presented for varying amounts of skew, and these are compared with experimental results.
