Description

Short description:
Explore the hot rolling process from ingot to finished steel, including rolling stages, ratios, and integrated production systems.

Long description:
This module introduces learners to the hot rolling process as a key technique in the mass production of steel. It covers fundamental principles such as deformation mechanics, material heating, and the elimination of defects from cast structures. The module details the primary stages in hot rolling, including heating, rolling, cooling, and finishing, with emphasis on how each step affects product properties. Learners also explore rolling ratios, types of semi-finished and finished products, and the integration of processes into compact and in-line strip production systems. Finishing processes and the role of hot-rolled products in downstream manufacturing are also discussed.

What you will learn

- Describe the hot rolling process and identify its primary stages and equipment.
- Calculate and interpret the rolling ratio in relation to steel quality and structural transformation.
- Differentiate between semi-finished and finished hot-rolled products and their manufacturing requirements.
- Explain the role of finishing processes and heat treatment in hot-rolled steel production.
- Evaluate integrated production systems like Compact Strip Production (CSP) and In-Line Strip Production (ISP).
