A RollStack Contact Mechanics Model to Predict Strip Profile in ...
Figures 1(a) and 1(b) show side and front views of a fourhigh rolling mill. Indicated are the strip, workrolls (WR), and backup rolls (BURs). Note that, when equipped with a workroll shifting mechanism, the WR face length, L s, is longer than the stationary backup roll face length, L. This prevents rolledge contact marks on the strip ...
