Characteristics of Tinplate in Skinpass Rolling

Abstract

Wet and dry skinpass rolling experiments on tinplate were conducted with a lab rolling mill of large and small diameter work rolls. Skinpass rolling characteristics were investigated. It was found that jumping becomes easier as work roll diameter increases larger, as lubrication improves, and as what thickness at the entrance decreases smaller. The influence of back tension on rolling load is small, and the influence of front tension on rolling load is large. Transcript efficiency improves as elongation is enhanced and as lubrication is degraded.
