AXIAL PLUG FORCE IN LD COLD TUBE MILL ON ROLLING

The reductions distributed over the reducing zone are closely related with the axial plug force (APF) during rolling on the LD cold tube mill XIIFP60 The distribution of the APF is influenced by the rolling pressure distributed over the reducing zone and the inhomogeneity of fhe tube reduction The numerical analysis of APF indicates it may be the sum of a transient and an accumulated acting forces.
