SUMMARY
THE MECHANICAL AND METALLURGICAL EFFECTS OF SKIN PASSING AND TENSION LEVELLING

ECSC Agreement No. 7210.EA/822
Final Summary Report
An exercise has been carried out to investigate the mechanical and metallurgical effects of skin passing and tension levelling. The investigation was hampered by a lack of suitable cut sheet orders, nevertheless five coils were processed using different levels of skin passing and tension levelling. Full width x 2m length samples were taken at each processing stage for measurement of shape, gauge profile, surface texture, tensile mechanical properties and formability properties.
The investigation showed that for EDD steel qualities low levels of tension levelling gave a significant improvement in strip shape, but that levels as low as 0.5% increased strip hardness and the 0.2% proof stress and reduced the work hardening coefficient ni such that the material may be rendered unsuitable for its intended use.
The transverse gauge profile of strip is not affected by skin passing at 0.4-0.8% extensions or by additional tension levelling up to 1.5% extension. Tension levelling up to 0.5% has no effect on surface texture and skin passing at 0.4% has only a marginal effect when compared to the texture obtained at 0.8% skin pass extension.
Combinations of 0.4% skin passing and low levels of tension levelling, up to 0.5% resulted in strip with similar mechanical and formability properties to those of the normal 0.8% skin pass material and would fully satisfy the property and texture specifications for EDD exposed part applications. Limited residual surface stress measurements using a Stresscan 500C system showed that the technique may after further study offer some use for the on-line determination of strip shape.
A number of investigations were also carried out into plant problems. They related to the design and operating set up of roller and tension levellers on various units. The pilot tension leveller rig was successfully used to simulate plant practices in a number of these investigations.

SOMMAIRE LES EFFETS MECANIQUES ET METALLURGIQDES
DE L'ECROUISSAGE ET DU DRESSAGE PAR TRACTION British Steel pic Accord ECSC n° 7210.EA/822 Sommaire final
On a effectue une etude ayant pour objectif de determiner les effets mecaniques et métallurgiques de 1'ecrouissage et du dressage par traction. Malgré une insuffisance de commandes de toles appropriees, on a pu realiser cinq couronnes a plusieurs niveaux d'ecrouissage et de dressage par traction. On a preleve des echantillons grande largeur sur 2 m a chaque stade de production pour en mesurer la forme, le profil d'epaisseur, la texture de surface, les proprietes mecaniques a la traction et la formabilite. Cette etude a montre que pour les toles de qualité emboutissage profond, des valeurs faibles de dressage par traction ont permis une amelioration sensible de la forme des feuillards, mais que des niveaux reduits (jusqu'a 0,5 %) avaient pour effet d'en augmenter la durete et la limite d'allongement (0,2 %) tout en reduisant le coefficient d'augmentation de durete nx jusqu'au point ou le materiau risque de ne plus convenir a 1'utilisation envisagee. Le profil d'epaisseur transversal des feuillards n'est affecte ni par un ecrouissage permettant des extensions de 0,4 / 0,8 % ni par un dressage par traction supplémentaire de jusqu'a 1,5 %. Un ecrouissage de jusqu'a 0,5 % n'a aucun effet sur la texture de surface, et un ecroussage a 0,4 % n'a qu'un tres faible effet par rapport a la texture obtenue a 0,8 %. Des combinaisons d'un ecrouissage de 4,0 % et de faibles niveaux de dressage par traction (de jusqu'a 0,5 %) ont donne des feuillards avec des proprietes mecaniques et de formabilite analogues a celles du materiau dresse a 0,8 %, et repondraient done aux specifications relatives aux proprietes et a la texture pour des applications des toles de qualite emboutissage profond. Les mesures des contraintes residuelles limitees de surface, effectuees a l'aide d'un systéme stresscan 500C, ont montre que cette technique pourrait eventuellement etre employee pour la determination en-ligne de la forme des feuillards. On a effectue egalement plusieurs etudes portant sur des problémes de fabrication, et notamment sur la conception et le fonctionnement des rouleaux a dresser et des rouleaux de tension. Pour certaines etudes, on a pu utiliser l'appareil d'essai en laboratoire pour simuler des techniques d'usine.

Zusammenfassung Die mechanischen und metallurgischen Effekte des Kaltnachwalzens und Streckrichtens British Steel plc EGKS-Vertrag Nr. 7210.EA/822
Zusammenfassender Schlußbericht Man hat die mechanischen und metallurgischen Effekte des Kaltnachwalzens und Streckrichtens untersucht. Diese Untersuchung ist an dem Mangel an Auftragen fur geeignetes, geschnittenes Groblech gehindert worden, trotzdem konnten aber funf Bunde auf verschiedenen Niveaus des Kaltnachwalzens und Streckrichtens verarbeitet werden. Man hat Probestucke voller Breite x 2 m lang in jedem Verarbeitungsstadium wegen Messung der Form, des Dickeprofils, des Oberflachengefuges, der mechanischen Zug- und Verformbarkeitseigenschaften abgenommen. Die Untersuchung hat gezeigt, dal3 niedrige Streckrichtniveaus im Falle von extratiefgezogenen Stahlguten zu einer signifikanten Verbesserung der Bandform geführt haben, aber Niveaus von so niedrig wie 0,5% haben die Bandharte und die 0,2%. Dehngrenze erhoht und den Kalthartungskoeffizienten nt derartig reduziert, so daS der Werkstoff fur den beabsichtigten Einsatz ungeeignet sein konnte. Das Querdickeprofi1 des Bandes wird nicht durch Kaltnachwalzen beim 0,4-0,8%. Dehnen oder durch weiteres Streckrichten beim Dehnen bis zu 1,5% beeintrachtigt. Im Vergleich zu dem beim Kaltwalzdehnen bei 0,8% gewonnenen Gefüges hat Streckrichten bis zu 0,5% keinen Effekt auf das Oberflächengefuge gehabt und Kaltnachwalzen bei 0,4% wirkt sich nur nebensachlich aus. Kombinierungen des 0,4%. Kaltnachwalzens und niedriger Streckrichtniveaus bis zu 0,5% haben in einem Band mit mechanischen und Verformbarkeitseigenschaften resultiert, die denen des normalen 0,8%. Kaltnachwalzwerkstoff ahnlich sind, und diese wurden die Vorschriften hinsichtlich der Eigenschaften und des Gefüges bei Anwendung der ausgesetzten Teile eines extratiefgezogenen Stahls vol! erfüllen. Limitierte Messungen der Restoberflachenspannung mit dem Stresscan-System 500C haben gezeigt, daß die Technik nach weiterer Untersuchung gewisse Verwendung fur die Online-Bestimmung der Bandform bieten kann. Man hat auch verschiedene Untersuchungen in bezug auf die Betriebsprobleme durchgefuhrt. Diese haben sich auf die Konstruk-tion und die Betriebseinstellung der Walzen und Streckricht-maschinen in verschiedenen Einheiten bezogen. Man hat die Versuchsanlage der Streckrichtmaschine erfolgreich fur Simulation der Betriebsverfahren in einer Anzahl dieser Untersuchungen eingesetzt.

THE MECHANICAL AND METALLURGICAL EFFECTS OF SKIN PASSING AND TENSION LEVELLING
British Steel pic
ECSC Agreement No. 7210.EA/822
Final Technical Report
1. INTRODUCTION
1.1. Background to Research Programme
The flatness of the strip and its freedom from residual stresses are critical in many applications particularly on slit strip and when high speed, automated machines are used for forming the strip. The skin passing and tension levelling operations are used to produce flat strip.
It is known that increased levels of skin passing and tension levelling work harden the strip and alter its mechanical properties to reduce its formability potential.
This work will examine the effects of variations in these plant processing operations on the yield strength, ductility, residual stress levels and surface appearance of the strip.
1.2. Summary of Intended Programme
The research programme had one main objective:-
1. To develop control strategies for skin passing and tension levelling to enable the routine production of flat steel strip which would meet the highest requirements for formability and surface finish.
To complete the programme of research it was anticipated that the following areas would be studied:-
1. Techniques for the examination of residual stress distribution through the thickness and for assessment of curvature and camber will be established.
2. Carry out plant trials in which the relevant operating parameters will be monitored. Samples from coils will be collected at various stages of processing for off-line determination of those properties and characteristics for which on-line measurement is impractical. A wide range of products in terms of gauge, formability requirements and customer applications will be covered.
3. Assess the effects of varying process conditions on the mechanical properties and surface appearance of the strip and use this data to propose control strategies.
4. The information gained from plant investigations will also be compared with the results of existing mathematical models and used to develop and refine these.
5. Carry out further plant trials to evaluate the proposed control strategies and to assess the prediction of refined mathematical models.
2. PLANT INVESTIGATIONS INTO THE EFFECTS OF SKIN PASSING AND TENSION LEVELLING
2.1. Final Acceptance Trial of an Inspection Line Tension Leveller
2.1.1. Outline of Trial and Sampling Procedure^)
As part of the final acceptance trials for the tension leveller, off-line shape and gauge profile assessments of normal 0.7% skin passed material processed on the line were made. A 20 tonne coil, 1465 x 0.7mm, was fed through the inspection line with the leveller in ambush. During this first pass, two adjacent samples, 2m x width, were taken 20m into the coil, at the centre of the coil (the coil rewelded) and 20m from the end of the coil. During this sampling operation, lines were scribed on the coil at three selected zones along its length for elongation measurement.
The coil was returned to the entry mandrel and fed through the line in a continuous operation with the tension leveller engaged and set at different levels of elongation for each of the prescribed zones (0.5, 1.0 and 1.5% elongation). The coil was again returned to the entry mandrel and run through the line slowly with the tension leveller in ambush. At each of the pre-selected zones, the line was stopped for elongation measurements and for 2m long x width samples for shape measurement.
2.1.2. Off-Line Shape Measurement Results^)
Details of the off-line shape assessment method used are given in Appendix 1. The results are summarised in Table 1. Figs, la, b and c are the results of the measurements made on the adjacent samples taken from the non tension levelled material. They all show an obvious centre looseness, approximately 800mm wide, with moderate loose edges. The degree of centre looseness improved along the coil length from 411 units at the head end to 151 units at the tail end.
Figs.2a, 2b and 2c are the results of the measurements made after 0.5, 1.0 and 1.5% elongation with tension levelling. They clearly show a considerable improvement in strip shape. At 0.5% elongation, the flatness index was within ±5 1 units, at 1% elongation it was within ±0.5 I units (which is close to the level of accuracy that the equipment can measure) and at 1.5% elongation the flatness index was within ± 3 1 units. Fig.3 shows the relationship between flatness index and total wave height for a sample length of 2m.
2.1.3. Hardness Variation Across Coil Widths
Rockwell B hardness measurements were carried out across the width of the sample sheets to establish if hardness variations could account for the wavy edges after tension levelling 0.5 and 1.5%, Figs.2a and 2c. The results are plotted in Fig.4 and show that at 0.5% extension the drive side edge was appreciably softer than the rest of the coil width (corresponding to its long edge, Fig.2a) and that for the 1.5% extension sample, both edges were softer. The results also clearly illustrate the effects of work hardening via tension levelling, in showing the increased overall hardness values after each change of elongation.
2.1.4. Transverse Gauge Measurements'1)
Transverse gauge profile measurements were made using a continuous gauge profilometer. The profiles are shown in Fig.5, this overlay shows that the profiles are consistent along the length of the coil and do not change with tension levelling.
Table 2 gives details of the characteristic values of the samples. The values for the gauge drop are given in two forms, i.e. the extreme edge measurement related to the centre line gauge and the measurement taken 5mm in from each edge, again related to the centre line gauge. The crown (centre - average of edge readings) and wedge (difference of edge readings) is calculated from the measurements taken 25mm in from each edge and again related to the centre line gauge. The gauge edge drop taken 5mm in from the edges shows a 50% improvement over that for the extreme edges. The calculated crown appears to be
fairly consistent along the length of the coil only varying by 6um, and is not affected by tension levelling. Essentially, there is no wedge in the coil pre and post tension levelling.
2.1.5. Mechanical Properties - Tensile Testing
Details of the tensile testing method, the sample positions tested, the parameters measured and the European specifications to satisfy EDD, extra deep drawing, Fe P05, requirements are given in Appendix II.
The tensile test results on the samples obtained in 2.1.1. are listed in Table 3. From these, it can be seen that, with the exception of the two head end samples, the mechanical tensile properties of the coil in the 0.7% skin passed condition are uniform. The effect of additional tension levelling is to alter the mechanical properties, in particular, to increase Rpo.2> reduce ni but make no significant change to Ago-For this particular coil the effect of 0.5% tension levelling was to increase Rpo.2 by 10 N/mm2, 1% tension levelling increased it by 28 N/mm2 and 1.5% tension levelling increased it by 36 N/mm2. Aso remained virtually unchanged at ~43.0% at all levels of extension 0-1.5%.
2.2. Plant Production Trial Coils
2.2.1. Outline of Trial and Sampling Procedure*2)
An outline of the original processing conditions and sampling procedures is given in Fig.6a. Essentially, coils were processed to enable samples to be collected in the following conditions:-
(i) Non-skin passed.
(ii) 0.8% skin passed.
(iii) 0.4% skin passed.
(iv) 0.4% skin passed + 0.3% tension levelling.
(v) 0.4% skin passed + 0.5% tension levelling.
Only the first two coils were processed using these conditions, subsequent coils were processed as outlined in Fig.6b. This enabled samples to be collected in the above conditions and also with 0.8% skin passed + 0.5% tension levelling.
2.2.2. Off-Line Shape Measurement Results*3-4)
The off-line shape assessment measurement for the trial coils are summarised in Tables 4 and 5 and in histogram form in Figs.7 and 8. The data presented is the flatness index, I units (minimum to maximum variation across the sample).
From these results it can be seen that all five coils had poor shape in the cold reduced and annealed condition, generally there was some improvement in shape with normal amounts of skin passing, but significant improvement only occurred when low amounts of levelling were applied to material which had previously been given 0.4 and 0.8% skin passing.
A more detailed view is given in Figs.9-13 which are plots of the off-line shape variation across the width of the coil at each processing stage. In each of these figures, the flatness variation is plotted over the mean value which is set at zero.
Fig.9 shows that Coil 82076 had a heavy loose centre, tight i 's and loose edges in the as annealed condition, which, with a 0.4% skin pass changed to a very loose D/S edge, retained the loose O/S edge and tight D/S i but loosing the loose centre. It then became virtually flat when small amounts of tension
levelling were applied to the 0.4% skin passed material. The base material with the normal 0.8% skin pass still retained a slightly loose centre with a suggestion of tight edges.
Fig. 10 shows that Coil 82078 had a pronounced D/S i buckle and a loose O/S edge in the as annealed condition. With a 0.4% skin pass the D/S i buckle was eliminated and the shape changed to a slightly loose centre with a hint of edge slackness. The coil became virtually flat when small amounts of tension levelling were applied to the 0.4% skin passed material. The normal 0.8% skin passed material was virtually flat with a hint of centre looseness.
Fig.ll shows that the shape of Coil 16528 in the as annealed condition changes gradually long its length from a loose centre at the head end to virtually flat at the mid coil position to a tight centre at the tail end with loose edges throughout the length of the coil. 0.4% and 0.8% skin passing did little to remove the loose centre. Small amounts of tension levelling after 0.4% and 0.8% skin passing removed the centre looseness completely, but did little to remove the loose edges which effect up to 200mm in from each edge of the coil.
Fig. 12 shows a similar change in shape along its length for Coil 16637 in the as annealed condition as was seen in Coil 16528. Similarly, 0.4% and 0.8% levels of skin passing did little to affect the shape, but additional low levels of tension levelling removed all of the loose centre and left only a suggestion of O/S loose edge.
Fig. 13 again showed a similar variation in the shape of Coil 17430 along its length in the as annealed condition. 0.4% skin passing did little to change the shape but 0.8% skin passing and small additional amounts of tension levelling to both 0.4% and 0.8% skin passed material effectively removed the centre looseness.
2.2.3. Transverse Gauge Measurements*3*4)
Tables 6 and 7 give details of the gauge characteristics of the trial coils and Figs. 14 and 15 show overlays of all the sample profiles. From these results it can be seen that the profiles are fairly consistent along the length of each coil and they are not affected by varying the levels of skin passing and tension levelling.
2.2.4. Surface Texture Measurements*5-6)
The surface texture characteristics of the trial coils are listed in Tables 8 and 9. Coils 82076 and 82078 were rolled in sequence on the temper mill as were coils 16528, 16637 and 17430. However, the surface textures of the coils were all somewhat different, due mainly to the different textures of the base tandem mill rolled material (Samples 1-3). That the surface textures of the individual coils is different is of no importance. What is important is that there is only a very little difference in texture, within individual coils, for material which has received a 0.4% skin pass and material which has received the normal 0.8% skin pass. The surface texture of 0.4% skin passed material is acceptable for exposed part applications. Low levels of tension levelling, up to 0.5% extension, do not affect the surface texture of skin passed material.
2.2.5. Mechanical Properties - Tensile Testing
The tensile test results on the samples taken from the five plant production trial coils are listed in Tables 10-14.
The results from the first two trial coils 82076 and 82078, Tables 10 and 11 show that there is very little difference between the tensile mechanical properties of the material having received 0.4% skin pass and 0.3 and 0.5% additional tension levelling and material having received the nominal 0.8% skin pass only. All the processing conditions applied to these two particular coils produced material to satisfy the requirements for Fe P05 grade.
For the last three trial coils, an extra processing condition was employed in addition to the range of conditions used on the two earlier coils, i.e. 0.5% tension levelling applied to 0.8% skin passed material.
The results are listed in Tables 12,13 and 14. From these results it can be seen that as for the two earlier trial coils, there was very little difference in the tensile mechanical properties of the material having received 0.4% skin pass and 0.3 and 0.5% additional tension levelling and material having received the nominal 0.8% skin pass only. However, the effect of applying 0.5% tension level to material having received 0.8% skin pass was to raise Rpo.2 by —10 N/mm2.
Although the additional 0.5% tension levelling applied to the nominal 0.8% skin pass did not cause the material to fall out of the EN 10130 specification for Fe P05 grade in these particular cases, given the distribution of mechanic properties normally obtained, the 10 N/mm2 increase in Rpo.2 would be expected to result in a significant number of coils falling out of the Fe P05 specification if 0.5% tension levelling were to be applied on a routine basis.
2.2.6. Mechanical Properties - Modified Stretch Draw
Details of the modified stretch draw test are given in Appendix III.
Modified stretch draw tests have been carried out on all the plant trial coils. Tests were carried out both in the dry condition, free of any lubricant, where the results are influenced by the mechanical properties of the steel, gauge and surface texture (frictional effects) and in the fully lubricated condition, where the results are influenced by gauge and mechanical properties only.
Three tests were carried out on each sample sheet on blanks punched from positions, i D/S, centre and i O/S, corresponding the tensile test sample positions.
The results, fracture height achieved and punch load to achieve fracture are listed in Table 15 for Coils 82076 and 82078 in the lubricated condition, Table 16 for Coils 82076 and 82078 in the dry condition and Table 17 for Coils 16528,16637 and 17430 in the dry condition.
As can be seen from the data in Tables 15,16 and 17, there is some variation in the results for fracture height achieved and the punch load to achieve fracture for samples tested under the same conditions. This can probably be explained by the variations in the control of the processing parameters, i.e. 0.8% S.P. ± 0.1%, 0.4% S.P. ± 0.1%, 0.3% and 0.5% T.L. ± 0.05% and minor gauge variations sample to sample.
However, from the results for each individual coil it would appear that there is no significant difference in the stretch draw behaviour of material with 0.4% skin pass and either 0.3% or 0.5% tension levelling and normal 0.8% skin passed material in both the dry and lubricated conditions. Similarly, the addition of 0.5% tension levelling to material which has received 0.8% skin pass does not appear to have a significantly deleterious effect on the material stretch draw properties, but there is an indication in Coil 16637 that these properties are beginning to deteriorate.
2.2.7. Residual Stress Measurements
Residual surface stress measurements have been carried out on samples from three of the plant production trial coils using the Stresscan 500C system. This system uses the Barkhausen noise effect to measure surface layer residual stresses which are given in terms of a dimensionless parameter called MP.
Measurements were carried out at 100mm intervals across the width of the strip in the longitudinal direction (corresponding to the off-line shape measurements, Section 2.2.2.). Both surfaces were measured using a standard air gap of 0.2mm and a depth setting of 0.2mm.
The results are plotted in Figs.16, 17 and 18 and are the difference between the difference of the top and bottom residual surface stress and the average surface residual stress difference:-
_ (oTL - oBL) i.e. {oTL - oBL) - E"
1 n
The results for Coil 16528, Fig.16, can be compared directly with the shape curves, Fig.ll , similarly results for Coils 16637 and 17430, Figs.17 and 18 can be compared with Figs.12 and 13.
There is some agreement between the shape curves and the residual surface stress curves. In general, the flat samples, i.e. samples 8-13 tend to give "flat" but skewed residual stress curves. Examples of good agreement can be seen in 17430-4 and 10 and 16528-5, but yet the clearly bad shape of 16637-4,5,6 and 7 was not reflected at all in the residual surface stress measurement.
This preliminary study of residual stress indicates that a much more detailed study is required to establish what relationships exist between residual surface stress and shape measurements.
2.3. Investigations into Various Plant Problems
2.3.1. Investigation of a Tinplate Line Tension Levelling Performance
An investigation into the strip levelling performance of the tension levellers on the Nos.3 and 4 electrolytic tinning lines and the No.l tin free steel line at British Steel Trostre was initiated because of a long middle shape problem on the Nos.l and 3 lines. The product from the No.4 line was satisfactory which enabled the performance of the levellers to be compared.
A theoretical analysis combined with sample and plant measurements was carried out. During the investigation a defective gearbox was discovered on the No.3 line and its replacement reduced the severity of the defect. The theoretical analysis was used to establish an operating envelope for the present product mix as a number of changes had been made to the levellers since their installation. Recommendations were also made for controlled trials on tension levels and the contribution of the bridle roll drives*7*. A programme of work was agreed and implemented.
2.3.2. Investigation of Residual Stress and Cross Bow in a Paint Coating Line
The problem of cross bow in strip of about 1mm gauge travelling in a supported catenary through a low temperature thermal treatment oven was made much worse when a 305mm diameter deflector roll engaged the strip. The effect of this roll in modifying the through thickness residual stress distribution resulting from tension levelling in a 5 roll leveller with 50mm diameter work rolls was investigated. The cross bow correction roll at the exit of the leveller was also 305mm diameter and adjustment of its height and the effect this had on the residual stress distribution made it possible to eliminate the excess cross bow which was generated by the engagement of the deflector roll.
The effect of variations in the through thickness residual stress profile across the width of the levelled product was also investigated to identify the origins of non-circular cross bow profiles sometimes seen in process line strip catenaries.
2.3.3. Investigation of a Tinplate Bowed Blanks Problem
2.3.3.1. Introduction to the Problem
Modern machines for the production of can sides for three piece cans typically use 0.14-0.17mm gauge double reduced tinplate as feedstock. This material is normally supplied in sheet form and then slit and cut into blanks by the customer. The blanks are increasingly loaded by automatic feeders and if the blanks bow after slitting and cutting from the large sheets then feeding problems can result. The process of rolling and tension levelling produce residual stress through the thickness of the strip. A sheet can appear flat or within acceptable limits of cross bow and long bow at dispatch, but when cut up into blanks can bow due to these residual stresses. This is because the surface tensile and compressive stresses are in equilibrium in the large sheet, but not in the blank.
An investigation was made into the operation of both tension leveller and roller leveller in relation to the residual stress distribution through the thickness of the strip and the relationship between the radius of curvature of the blanks and residual stress.
2.3.3.2. Curvature of Blanks and Residual Stress
An attempt was made to establish the maximum amount of curvature that could be corrected for a particular roll diameter by bending 20mm wide strips of 0.17mm gauge double reduced tinplate around steel bars of various diameters and measuring of the springback angle. The experiment failed because the technique employed did not ensure conformation of the strip around the bar. The experiment will be repeated using a more sophisticated technique. Fig.19 shows the equivalent elastic stresses at the strip surface calculated for a range of curvatures for 0.14 and 0.17mm gauge double reduced tinplate. These results can be related to the projected stress distribution through the thickness after tension levelling and roller levelling.
Fig.20 shows the changes in residual longitudinal stress after bending and straightening after four bends of decreasing curvature^. Generally, the bending stresses over each roll must be reduced in a linear manner through a multi-roll leveller to reduce the residual stresses through the thickness of the strip.
2.3.3.3. Tension Leveller Operation
The tension leveller on the tinning line currently employs a five bending roll system with all work rolls being 25mm diameter. In order to assist in the reduction of residual stress and long bow it was recommended that the penetration of the bending rolls in the second cassette be approximately 65% of that of the first cassette and that the diameter of the last work roll be increased to 45mm which would result in less sensitive correction of long bow. In addition, Thies et al<9) suggest that for minimum residual stress, the bridle tension should be maintained at 90 N/mm2 for double reduced tinplate. This would require careful balancing of bridle tension and roll penetration consistent with the required elongation.
2.3.3.4 Roller Leveller Operation
The design of the roller leveller used has a fixed bottom frame with seven rollers and an adjustable top frame of six rollers means that the penetration of the rollers can only be set as a 'wedge' with the maximum penetration of the first roller reducing progressively to the final roller. Using the relationship from Fig.21 derived by examination of the roller leveller geometry, the 'wedge' set up produces a nonlinear curvature/stress relationships from entry to exit, Fig.22. This does not, therefore, produce the optimum stress reversals required for reduction of residual stress.
A possible method of overcoming this problem is the adoption of a two stage process as suggested by Panknin et aK10>, i.e. the top frame is split into two sections with each section individually adjustable. By use of the roll penetration set up shown in Fig.23, an almost linear curvature reduction can be achieved from entry to exit.
2.3.4. Optimisation of Wrap Angles During Tension Levelling of Tinplate
Two different designs of tension levellers are used in British Steel Tinplate. In order to optimise the performance of the levellers, it was necessary to establish the wrap angle required to achieve maximum surface strain for the two tinplate qualities normally produced, i.e.
(i) Single reduced tinplate, 0.2mm gauge, yield stress 275 N/mm2.
(ii) Double reduce tinplate, 0.17mm gauge, yield stress 550 N/mm2.
As both grades produce 'springback' when defected around rolls, it was necessary to determine the minimum bending angle required before plastic deformation occurred. This was done by bending small strips round a 25mm diameter pin (same diameter as work rolls in the tension levellers) at various angles and measuring the residual angle after release of tension. The results of these tests are shown in Fig.24
and indicate that the minimum wrap angle for single reduced tinplate was 6.5° and for double reduced tinplate 11°.
The maximum surface strain that can be achieved = strip thickness/bending roll diameter.
For S.R. tinplate = .2_ = 0.008 25
For D.R. tinplate = 117_= 0.0068 25
This can be related to the wrap angle by the difference in arc length between the centre line and the extreme surface of the strip when bend around a roller.
S„-Sc = [(r + G)-(r+*G)]9
where S0 = Arc length of extreme surface of strip Sc = Arc length of centre of strip r = Roller radius G = Strip gauge 9 = Wrap angle, radians
For S.R. tinplate 9 = 0.008 = 0.08 Radians = 4.6° .1
For D.R. tinplate 9 = 0.0068 = 0.08 Radians =4.6°
.085
Thus the optimum wrap angles to achieve maximum strain are:-
For S.R. tinplate; 4.6° + springback 6.5° = 11.1°
For D.R. tinplate; 4.6° + springback 11.0° = 15.6° These results clearly demonstrate that different leveller settings are required for each tinplate quality. The S.R. setting is totally ineffective for D.R. whilst the D.R. setting would induce severe cross bow and line bow in S.R. material.
2.4. Use of Pilot Tension Leveller Rig in Plant Problem Investigations
2.4.1. Cyclic Strip Marking on an EZ Coating Line
The pilot tension leveller rig, Fig.25, has been used to investigate a problem which arose during the commissioning of an EZ coating line. It was found that cyclic strip marking was present on some coils when the surface was stoned. An investigation had shown*11) that the tension leveller aggravated any marks generated by rolling at the micron level and the effect appeared to be a function of the leveller design geometry, in particular the diameter and spacing of the bending and anticurvature rolls. Subsequent plant trials*12) using different bending roll diameters and penetrations have enabled a leveller set up practice to be developed which minimises the cyclic marking problem.
2.4.2. Slitting of 3.1mm Hot Dipped Galvanised Material
The pilot rig has also been used to investigate problems encountered with 3.1mm gauge hot dipped galvanised material which is subsequently slit into narrow widths. During slitting, the edge widths exhibit cambering and twisting. An analysis of the stress and strain distributions, through the strip thickness, during tension levelling was made^) . The pilot rig was used to investigate the relationships between tension stresses, penetration values and radius of strip curvature for a 45mm diameter bending roll as used in the plant tension leveller, Fig.26.
Based on the above analysis and pilot rig work, recommendations have been made for specific values of strip tension, drive motor currents, bending roll positioning and line speed in order to give minimum residual stress in the strip.
3. CONCLUSIONS
1. Investigations carried out during the final acceptance trial of a rewind line tension leveller confirmed that tension levelling improves the shape of coil strip, but that even with levels as low as 0.5% extension, work hardening occurs which may render the strip unsuitable for its intended application. Strip hardness is increased, as is the 0.2% proof stress and the work hardening coefficient ni is reduced, but the total elongation is virtually unchanged.
2. The same investigation showed that tension levelling, up to 1.5% extension, has no effect on the transverse gauge profile of the coil; crown, wedge and edge drop are not affected.
3. Plant production trials confirm that the transverse gauge profile after cold rolling in the tandem mill is not affected by subsequent skin passing at 0.4-0.8% extension or by additional tension levelling of 0.5% extension.
4. Surface texture measurements on samples from plant production trial coils show that tension levelling, up to 0.5% extension, has no effect on surface texture. Slight differences were observed between the textures obtained with 0.4% and 0.8% dry temper rolling, however, the differences were only marginal and would not have rendered the material unsuitable for even the most demanding outside part qualities. The major influence on the final strip surface texture obtained was the incoming tandem mill texture
5. For steel strip in the gauge range 0.7-1.2mm, low levels of tension levelling, 0.3% extension, were very effective in removing tight/loose centre and ± buckles, but did not always remove loose edges, particularly on wide material. Increasing tension levelling to 0.5% extension was only marginally more effective than 0.3% in improving shape.
6. For steel strip in the gauge range 0.7-1.2mm, combinations of 0.4% skin passing and low levels of tension levelling, up to 0.5% resulted in strip with tensile mechanical properties similar to those of the normal production route 0.8% skin pass material. The addition of 0.5% tension levelling to normal production 0.8% skin pass material resulted in some deterioration of mechanical properties. Given the distribution of mechanical properties normally obtained, the 10 N/mm2 increase in Rpo.2 would result in a significant number of coils falling out of the Fe P05 specification if 0.5% tension levelling were to be applied on a routine basis.
7. For steel strip in the gauge range 0.7-1.2mm, the combination of 0.4% skin passing and low levels of tension levelling also gave similar modified stretch draw test results to those of the normal 0.8% skin pass material. However, in this test the deterioration of mechanical properties when 0.5% tension levelling was given to normal 0.8% skin pass material was not as evident as in the tensile test results.
8. The results of this study show that the normal production route of 0.8% skin passing results in a product with satisfactory mechanical properties, but it is not necessarily flat. If an order for EDD quality material also has a requirement for good flatness, then the only guaranteed way to satisfy both these requirements is to employ a lower than normal skin pass, typically 0.4% extension, followed by a low level of tension levelling, typically 0.3% extension.
9. The measurement of residual surface stress using a method based on the Barkhausen effect has shown some degree of tie up with off-line shape measurements. However, this aspect of the investigation was somewhat limited and a more detailed investigation is required before the usefulness or otherwise of the technique for relating residual stress to shape can be established.
10. A number of investigations have been carried out into plant problems. The problems related to the design and operating set up of roller and tension levellers on various units and recommendations have been made which have overcome or reduced the severity of the problems. The pilot tension leveller rig was successfully used in a number of these investigations.
4. RECOMMENDATIONS FOR FUTURE WORK
1. The results of this investigation have demonstrated that in order to ensure a flat product with EDD forming quality it is necessary to employ lower than normal levels of skin passing and low levels of tension levelling. One can understand the plant management reluctance to use very low levels of skin passing such as 0.4% as a routine production route. Further work should be carried out to investigate whether skinpass levels of 0.5-0.6% combined with 0.2-0.3% tension levelling can also satisfy the flatness and EDD formability requirements.
2. Further work should be carried out on the measurement of residual stress and shape measurement of samples to ascertain if the Stresscan 500C system used can form a useful tool for the on-line measurement of strip shape.

APPENDIX I
OFF-LINE SHAPE ASSESSMENT
Off-line shape measurements were carried out on all the samples using the contour following technique. This uses a precision LVDT type transducer which traverses lightly over the surface contour of each sample in the rolling direction. Each traverse was carried out at 50mm increments either side of the sample width centre line including its extreme edge. The vertical displacement during traverse is logged at equal time intervals and the number of loggings per traverse (~400) is constant for each measured sample. At the end of each traverse, the displacement signal is used to calculate the shape value in I Units as follows:-
c = Traverse Increment Length (Constant) d = Vertical Displacement L2 = Surface Contour: Increment Length LI = Surface Contour: Total Length L = Length of Traverse (Constant)
L2 = V(d2+C2) LI = 2L2 L = Sc
Length Differential = LI - L L
I Units = (LI - L) x 1Q5 L
The collective results for each sample are computed eliminating any camber that may be present.

APPENDIX II
DETAILS OF TENSILE TESTING
Tensile tests were carried out according to Standard EN 10 002 Part 1 on 80mm gauge length samples on a Zwick 1474 machine at an initial crosshead speed of 2.5mm/min increasing to 25mm/min after determination of proof stress.
Four tests were carried out on each sample sheet, three in the longitudinal direction at ± width O/S, centre and i width D/S and 1 in the transverse direction at centre position.
Parameters measured:-

EUR 15849 — Mechanical working (Rolling mills) The mechanical and metallurgical effects of skin passing and tension levelling
T. de la Rue

An exercise has been carried out to investigate the mechanical and metallurgical effects of skin passing and tension levelling. The investigation was hampered by a lack of suitable cut sheet orders, nevertheless five coils were processed using different levels of skin passing and tension levelling. Full width x 2 m length samples were taken at each processing stage for measurement of shape, gauge profile, surface texture, tensile mechanical properties and formability properties.
The investigation showed that for EDD steel qualities low levels of tension levelling gave a significant improvement in strip shape, but that levels as low as 0.5% increased strip hardness and the 0.2% proof stress and reduced the work hardening coefficient n1 such that the material may be rendered unsuitable for its intended use.
