Testing of the Technology of Radial-Shear Rolling and Predesigning Selection of Rolling Minimills for the Adaptable Production of Titanium Rods with Small Cross Sections Under the Conditions of the “CHMP” JSC

详细

We perform the experimental testing of the technological capabilities of radial-shear rolling (RSR) in minimills aimed at the production of titanium bars with diameters of 10-40 mm from billets produced at the “Chepetskii Mechanical Plant” JSC (ChMP). The investigation of the quality of pilot bars reveals its complete compliance with the requirements of the current specifications and technical documentation. The experimentally tested technological scheme and RSR mills can be used for the creation of high-tech rolling modules with adaptable production program. We propose various versions of the constructive arrangement of minimills and a rational technological scheme of their operation.
