Abstract

The demand in terms of respect of the environment, safety in operation and high rolling performance while minimizing the total cost in use are the new trends in the near future of cold rolling industry. The intrinsic properties of HSS forged grade regarding wear resistance and incident resistance allow to skip chrome plating and to minimize roll damages while roll life in stand is extended. In this paper these properties will be described in the frame of industrial cases and their associated key parameters to achieve such unprecedented results.
