Tandem rolling mill train for metal plate and sheet

摘要

A tandem rolling mill train for rolling metal plate or sheet includes a plurality of crossed-roll type rolling mill stands. The work rolls on at least two of the crossed-roll type rolling mill stands are respectively slanted in opposite directions so that the widthwise shear deformation developed on the upstream crossed-roll type stand is reduced by the widthwise shear deformation caused on the downstream crossed-roll type stand.
