Abstract
A finite element analysis model for calculation of the gap and the rolling pressure axial distribution of different work roll contours under the condition of cool roll (initial rolling) and hot roll (stable rolling) respectively is established by treating aluminum foil rolls and aluminum foil integrally. The influence of work roll contour on aluminum foil profile was analyzed. It is suggested that the top work roll take AFW (Aluminum Foil Work Roll) contour and the bottom work roll take flat contour in aluminum foil rolling.
