Challenge

Rolling Operation

Aim:

To simulate the rolling operation on a workpiece made of copper.

Objective:

Increase the length of the workpiece by 60 mm and decrease its size on both sides by 8 mm. Run the simulation for 14 steps and you can give small but random values for the displacement. Ensure that the edge of the workpiece is displaced by 90 mm.

Find out the

  1. Equivalent stress for the whole setup.
  2. Equivalent Plastic strain for the workpiece.
  3. Directional Deformation in the Z axis for the workpiece.
  4. Prove that the workpiece has displaced by 90mm.

Procedure:

We will first import the model into ANSYS-WORKBENCH and then open the Geometry module and then we will modify the model in Space Claim module to the given requirements as in the objective.

After we edit the geometry according to the given requirements and we will be providing the boundary conditions for the workpiece and the rollers.

At first we will be providing contacts as frictional for the workpiece to the roller wheel 1 and wheel 2 separately as shown in the two images below.

Then we will be providing joints as ground to wheel in cylindrical so that the roller wheels will be fixed and it will allow the workpiece to penetrate in between them with the required displacement as shown in the two images below.

Now, we will be providing boundary conditions for the mode by starting with the displacement in the negative direction in 14 steps to cover a displacement of 90 mm as shown in the image below.

We will then be providing joint rotation to both the roller wheels in degrees of rotation in which one roller wheel will have positive values and the other one will have the same values but negative same values as shown in the images below.

Explanation:

Since, the material we have chosen is Copper Alloy NL which is a non-linear material and it doesn’t have a Tensile Yield Strength value and the strain-stress curve is linear after a particular value. So, it doesn’t break and we have got the values for the required solution parameters with the tabulation. We have also given the values accordingly in tabular data so that the workpiece has been displaced by 90 mm and it is proved so by selecting the bottom tip of the workpiece to show that the material displaced to a value of 91.422 mm.
