The presentation gives a brief description of the rolled rings used in the nuclear industries and the various advantages of its use.
E N D
What are Forged Rolled Rings? • The ring rolling process starts with a circular preform of metal that has been previously upset and pierced to form a hollow “doughnut.” • This doughnut is heated above the recrystallization temperature and placed over the idler or mandrel roll. • This idler roll then moves under pressure toward a drive roll that continuously rotates to reduce the wall thickness, thereby increasing the diameters of the resulting ring.
Advantages of using these rings • Strength • Cost effectiveness • Cost effectiveness • Better under heat • Wider range of materials
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. • There’s less machining involved because the rings closely match the contour of the finished shape.
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, it’s easier to predict how rolled rings will react to heat. • With most other components, users need to take care when applying heat to prevent the component from melting or otherwise deforming. • 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. • This versatility makes them a flexible and responsive answer when manufactures seek components in markets such as power generation, chemical and refinery industries.
