This document discusses the evaluation of roll pass design using software. It describes the objectives of roll pass design which is to reduce the cross-sectional area in each pass to gradually form the desired product profile. It then explains the rolling process and factors to consider in roll pass design like taper percentage, groove angles, and fitting. Finally, it shows an example evaluation of 19 passes to reduce a material's cross sectional area and calculates the required power in each pass.

4. Production of correct profile within
tolerance limits with good surface finish
(free from surface defects).
Maximum productivity at lowest cost.
Minimum roll wear.
Easy working.
Optimum energy utilization.
8. Shape of sections in a particular passes must ensure a
free metal flow in the roll gap/groove.
Appropriate taper/groove angle in pass must be selected
in order to avoid metal jamming in rolls.
TYPE OF PASS % TAPER
Roughing pass 6 to 15
Forming pass 3 to 10
Finish pass 0.5 to 3.0%
9. Groove angle for box pass should be 8 to 100 .
Relief radius for box pass should be 10 mm.
Groove angle for diamond pass should be 900 .
Relief radius for diamond should be around 18 mm .
Groove angle for square pass should be 450 .
Bottom angle for square pass should be around 900 .
Relief radius for square pass should be 5mm .
Groove angle for oval should be 600 .
Relief radius for oval should be 5mm.
Groove angle for intermediate round pass should be 600 .
Groove angle for intermediate finish round pass should be 300 .
Bottom radius for rounds is ½ of dia.
Relief radius for rounds is 1/5th of bottom radius .
Relief radius for rounds in finish pass should be 1.5.
Fitting from oval to round should be 0.3 to 0.7.
For ovals width to height ratio should be 3.0.
11. The number and arrangement of passes in particular roll stand
should assure the most uniform possible exploitation of all the
passes in each stand.
Uniform draught in last passes different draught in early forming
passes of profile , where the section is large metal is hot.
Draught should be distributed so as to ensure as far as possible
uniform wear and to avoid overloading of drive installations and
rolls .
12. • Rolls should easily grip the material being rolled .
• Pass filling should be correct.

13. The Fitting parameter should be 0.3 Fitting 0.7 to avoid
problems with bad surface quality and bad wearing conditions of the
groove bottom.
