According to the literature on metallurgical models, all existing roll force prediction models assume that a single common model can be applied to all stands when predicting forces – i.e., they tend to treat all rolling passes in the same way, without explicitly distinguishing the different levels of impact of the process parameters, which …

Removing Mill Scale from Steel Surfaces

Steel surfaces can sometimes exhibit residual mill scale as a side effect of the production process. Though not harmful in and of itself, the presence of scale is detrimental in conditions where corrosion is likely to occur, and it must be removed before a workpiece can be given a protective coating.

What is Mill Scale?

Mill scale is the flaky surface that forms on hot-rolled steel. It is a by-product of manufacturing hot-rolled metal plates and sheets, occurring as the surface oxidizes during the heating, conditioning and hot-rolling processes.
