Influencing factors of force difference in rolling zone of eccentric shafts during cross wedge rolling

In the rolling procedure of eccentric shafts by cross wedge rolling, the non-symmetry of rolling force in rolling zone is a significant characteristic. The force difference in rolling zone of eccentric shafts during cross wedge rolling was calculated by finite element method and its influencing factors were systematically analyzed. The mechanism of influencing factors on the force difference was clarified. Finally the influence degree of each influencing factor was evaluated.
