Making and Use of Rolled Rings
2
You can find seamless rolled rings at work in a
variety of applications Crushing rocks in the
mining industry, helping turn windmills for power
generation companies and keeping military jets in
the air.

How are these rings made?
Seamless forged rings are created through a
process known as ring rolling, which uses a
machine known as a rolling mill. The forging
process begins with a circular piece of metal
that the machine pierces, making a
doughnut-shaped component. Once this piece has
been formed, it is heated until it reaches
recrystallization temperature (typically between
400 and 700 degrees Celsius for steels). Once it
hits this temperature, the ring goes onto an
idler roll and moves towards a drive roll. This
movement causes the ring to rotate, increasing
its diameter and wall thickness.

Advantages of Rolled Rings
Strength Forgings are stronger than other
components, maintaining their strength through
high temperature fluctuations. Cost
effectiveness These rings are manufactured at a
lower cost than similar products. Reliability
The high temperatures needed to created rolled
rings means the grain pattern used in making them
gives them metal more strength and resistance
compared to other components. Better under heat
Compared to other components, its easier to
predict how rolled rings will react to heat. With
forgings, users can be sure of the maximum heat
it can withstand. Wider range of materials
These rings can be made from any forgeable
material alloy, stainless steel, carbon,
aerospace metals.
