Relation Between Texture and Quality Characteristics of Rolled Stock and Control of Continuous Plastic Deformation

Abstract

The relation between the texture parameters suggested earlier for controlling the properties under heat treatment and the quality characteristics of deformable aluminum rolled products is considered. The texture is shown to be correlated with the varying properties and the thickness of the rolled products. The advantages of continuous texture control, i.e., ecological safety, controllability of the process aimed at eliminating rejects, and timely stop of the rolling process in the case of impossibility of further control, are demonstrated. Online organization of continuous active texture control of the quality parameters under plastic deformation of different-shape semiproducts is suggested.
