In 1697, <a href="/wiki/John_Hanbury_(1664%E2%80%931734)" title="John Hanbury (1664–1734)">Major John Hanbury</a> erected a mill at <a href="/wiki/Pontypool" title="Pontypool">Pontypool</a> to roll "Pontypool plates" – <a href="/wiki/Blackplate" title="Blackplate">blackplate</a>.

The earlier production of plate iron in Europe had been in forges, not rolling mills. </p><p>The slitting mill was adapted to producing hoops (for barrels) and iron with a half-round or other sections by means that were the subject of two patents of c. 1679. </p><p>Some of the earliest literature on rolling mills can be traced back to the Swedish engineer <a href="/wiki/Christopher_Polhem" title="Christopher Polhem">Christopher Polhem</a> in his <i>Patriotista Testamente</i> of 1761, where he mentions rolling mills for both plate and bar iron.<sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> He also explains how rolling mills can save on time and labor because a rolling mill can produce 10 to 20 or more bars at the same time. </p><p>A patent was granted to Thomas Blockley of England in 1759 for the polishing and rolling of metals.

During shape rolling, an initial billet (round or square) with edge of diameter typically ranging between 100 and 140&#160;mm is continuously deformed to produce a certain finished product with smaller cross section dimension and geometry. Starting from a given billet, different sequences can be adopted to produce a certain final product. However, since each rolling mill is significantly expensive (up to 2 million euros), a typical requirement is to reduce the number of rolling passes. Different approaches have been achieved, including empirical knowledge, employment of numerical models, and Artificial Intelligence techniques.

It is used to produce a smooth surface, a uniform thickness, and reduce the <a href="/wiki/Yield_point" class="mw-redirect" title="Yield point">yield point</a> phenomenon (by preventing <a href="/wiki/L%C3%BCders_band" title="Lüders band">Lüders bands</a> from forming in later processing). It locks dislocations at the surface and thereby reduces the possibility of formation of Lüders bands. To avoid the formation of Lüders bands it is necessary to create substantial density of unpinned dislocations in ferrite matrix. It is also used to break up the <a href="/wiki/Galvanization#Zinc_coatings" title="Galvanization">spangles</a> in galvanized steel.

The <i>two-high reversing</i> mill has rolls that can rotate in both directions, but the disadvantage is that the rolls must be stopped, reversed, and then brought back up to rolling speed between each pass. To resolve this, the <i>three-high</i> mill was invented, which uses three rolls that rotate in one direction; the metal is fed through two of the rolls and then returned through the other pair. The disadvantage to this system is the workpiece must be lifted and lowered using an elevator. All of these mills are usually used for primary rolling and the roll diameters range from 60 to 140&#160;cm (24 to 55&#160;in).<sup id="cite_ref-degarmo385_10-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-degarmo385-10"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>10<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p> To minimize the roll diameter a <i>four-high</i> or <i><a href="/wiki/Z-mill" class="mw-redirect" title="Z-mill">cluster</a></i> mill is used. A small roll diameter is advantageous because less roll is in contact with the material, which results in a lower force and power requirement. The problem with a small roll is a reduction of stiffness, which is overcome using <i>backup rolls</i>. These backup rolls are larger and contact the back side of the smaller rolls. A four-high mill has four rolls, two small and two large. A cluster mill has more than four rolls, usually in three tiers. These types of mills are commonly used to hot roll wide plates, most cold rolling applications, and to roll foils.<sup id="cite_ref-degarmo385_10-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-degarmo385-10"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>10<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Mill_stand_end_view.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/65/Mill_stand_end_view.jpg/220px-Mill_stand_end_view.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="190" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/65/Mill_stand_end_view.jpg/330px-Mill_stand_end_view.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/65/Mill_stand_end_view.jpg 2x" data-file-width="440" data-file-height="380" /></a><figcaption>This sketch shows the components of a four-high Mill Stand</figcaption></figure> <p>Historically mills were classified by the product produced:<sup id="cite_ref-26" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-26"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>26<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Blooming_mill" class="mw-redirect" title="Blooming mill">Blooming</a>, cogging and <a href="/wiki/Slabbing_mill" class="mw-redirect" title="Slabbing mill">slabbing mills</a>, being the preparatory mills to rolling finished <a href="/wiki/Rail_profile" title="Rail profile">rails</a>, shapes or plates, respectively.

The deviation from complete flatness is the direct result of the workpiece relaxation after hot or cold rolling, due to the internal stress pattern caused by the non-uniform transversal compressive action of the rolls and the uneven geometrical properties of the entry material. The transverse distribution of differential strain/elongation-induced stress with respect to the material's average applied stress is commonly referenced to as shape. Due to the strict relationship between shape and flatness, these terms can be used in an interchangeable manner. In the case of metal strips and sheets, the flatness reflects the differential fiber elongation across the width of the workpiece. This property must be subject to an accurate feedback-based control in order to guarantee the machinability of the metal sheets in the final transformation processes. Some technological details about the feedback control of flatness are given in.<sup id="cite_ref-27" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-27"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>27<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Profile">Profile</h4><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Rolling_(metalworking)&amp;action=edit&amp;section=22" title="Edit section: Profile"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Profile is made up of the measurements of crown and wedge.

The deflection causes the workpiece to be thinner on the edges and thicker in the middle. This can be overcome by using a crowned roller (parabolic crown), however the crowned roller will only compensate for one set of conditions, specifically the material, temperature, and amount of deformation.<sup id="cite_ref-degarmo388_12-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-degarmo388-12"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>12<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>Other methods of compensating for roll deformation include continual varying crown (CVC), pair cross rolling, and work roll bending. CVC was developed by SMS-Siemag AG and involves grinding a third order polynomial curve into the work rolls and then shifting the work rolls laterally, equally, and opposite to each other. The effect is that the rolls will have a gap between them that is parabolic in shape, and will vary with lateral shift, thus allowing for control of the crown of the rolls dynamically. Pair cross rolling involves using either flat or parabolically crowned rolls, but shifting the ends at an angle so that the gap between the edges of the rolls will increase or decrease, thus allowing for dynamic crown control. Work roll bending involves using hydraulic cylinders at the ends of the rolls to counteract roll deflection. </p><p>Another way to overcome deflection issues is by decreasing the load on the rolls, which can be done by applying a longitudinal force; this is essentially <a href="/wiki/Drawing_(manufacturing)" title="Drawing (manufacturing)">drawing</a>.

This is normally attributed to using excessive roll bending force since the bending force may not compensate for the roll deflection across the entire length of the roll.</li></ul> <p>One could have a flatness defect even with the workpiece having the same thickness across the width. Also, one could have fairly high crown or wedge, but still produce material that is flat. In order to produce flat material, the material must be reduced by the same percentage across the width. This is important because mass flow of the material must be preserved, and the more a material is reduced, the more it is elongated. If a material is elongated in the same manner across the width, then the flatness coming into the mill will be preserved at the exit of the mill. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Draught">Draught</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Rolling_(metalworking)&amp;action=edit&amp;section=24" title="Edit section: Draught"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The difference between the thickness of initial and rolled metal piece is called Draught.
