Effects of Roll Diameter on a Roll Forming Product

Abstract: The roll forming process is a continuous bending of sheet metal. Different design parameters like roller diameter, distance between stands, roll gap, forming velocity, etc effects on a quality of roll formed products. Effects of roll gap is taken consideration for this study. A short investigation is presented in the paper on roll gap effects on a final quality of roll formed product.

Keywords: Roll gap, residual stress, longitudinal strain.
