We apply our 150 years of experience and our digital know-how to provide the industry continuously with innovative products and processes that extend beyond our core business. We are the right partner for challenging projects and support our customers throughout the entire lifecycle of their plants and equipment. Paving the way for a carbon-neutral and sustainable metals industry is our stated goal.
Designing roll calibers and roll passes is a complex process that requires highly experienced process designers. The main challenge is to design a process that achieves the desired final profile shape while staying within the machine's capabilities. A standard approach to support the process designers is the application of the 3D FE simulations. SMS R&D develops an alternative to conventional models based on the Finite-Element-Method and Python. In order to extend the model’s capabilities to capture a large variety of rolling problems, such as multi-pass rolling, its’ underlying code requires further extensions and thorough testing. The generated results need to be validated using experimental data.
