Abstract

Current development of surface treatment technologies for work rolls is based on the experience of operating existing machines and industrial experiments. We chose electrical discharge texturing from the existing treatment methods for the roll working surface, namely texturing by blasting, electrical discharge texturing, laser texturing, and electron beam texturing, and described it in this paper. The principle of the method lies in making erosion craters on the roll surface. This paper presents the obtained theoretical dependences between the design parameters of the electrical discharge texturing machine for roll surface treatment (number of stations, number of electrodes), process modes (current, voltage, frequency and duration of spark discharges), thermophysical properties of the machined material (heat capacity, thermal conductivity) and the parameters of a textured layer (frequency and height). This contributes to assigning new modes and adjusting existing ones for texturing the surface of rolls of skin pass mills to produce cold rolled sheets in accordance with the consumers’ requirements. Methods Applied. This paper describes a theoretical study conducted on the process of electrical discharge texturing of mill rolls to establish a quantitative relationship between the roughness parameters of the textured surface, the structural elements of the machine, texturing modes and energy intensity of the process. Originality. The conducted studies allow us to establish the relationship between the design parameters of electrical discharge texturing, taking into account the number of stations simultaneously involved in the roll surface treatment, the number of electrodes at one station, the number of electrodes in one row of the station, power modes and roughness parameters: frequency and height. Practical Relevance. The results obtained are useful for metal forming specialists, and operators, when setting up equipment for electrical discharge texturing of rolls, to reduce trial settings.
