Rolling is a metal forming process in which metal stock is passed through a pair of rolls.
Rolling is classified according to the temperature of the metal rolled.
If the temperature of the metal is above its recrystallization temperature, then the process is termed as hot rolling. If the temperature of the metal is below it's recrystallization temperature, the process is termed as cold rolling.

In fig. AB and AB are the connect arcs on the roll. The wedging action on the work is overcome by the frictional force that act on these arcs and draw the metal through the roll. In the process of rolling stocks enters the roll with a speed less than peripheral roll speed. At a point midway between A and B metal speed is the same as the roll peripheral speed.

Rolling process based on continuity equation.

Q1=Q2
A1V1=A2V2

A1/A2=V2/V1
Where, Q1=Quantity of metal going into roll. Q2=Quantity of metal leaving the roll. A1=Area of an element in front of roll,m^2 A2=Area of an element after roll,m^2 V1=Velocity in element before the roll, m/sec V2=Velocity in element after the roll, m/sec

Rolling mill are classified according to the number and arrangement of roll in a stand:

*For hot rolling of metals:

1. Two high rolling mill. 2. Three high rolling mill.

*For cold rolling of metals:

1.For high rolling mill 2. Cluster rolling mill

It is basically of two types i.e., non reversing and reversing rolling mill.
The two high non reversing rolling stand arrangement is the most common arrangement. In this roll always move in only one direction, while in a two high reversing rolling stand the direction of roll rotation can be reversed. This type is used in blooming and slabing mills.

It is used for rolling of two continuous passes in a rolling sequence without reversing the drives. After all the metal passed through the bottom roll set, the end of the metal is entered into the other set of the rolls for the next pass. Such type of arrangement is used for making plates or sections.

It is generally two high rolling mill, but with small sized rolls. The other two rolls are the backup rolls for providing the necessary rigidity to the small rolls. It is used for hot and cold work rolling of wide plates and sheets.

It uses backup rolls to support the smaller work roll. In this type of mill, the roll in contact with the work can be as small as in. in diameter. Foil is always rolled on cluster mills since the small thickness requires small diameter rolls.

Residual stresses produces: Compressive residual stresses on the surfaces Tensile stresses in the middle Tolerances Cold-rolled sheets: (+/- ) 0.1mm 0.35mm Tolerances much greater for hot-rolled plates Surface roughness Cold rolling can produce a very fine finish Hot rolling & sand have the same range of surface finish

Gauge numbers the thickness of a sheet is identified by a gauge number
