Virtual Design and Kinematical Simulation of Cold Ring Rolling Mill

The 3D CAD model of the cold ring rolling mill,which could manufacture ring work pieces with out diameter 350 mm at most,was established by using the 3D software Pro/E,and then transferred into ADAMS successfully by the interface tool Mech/Pro.The virtual prototyping was established based on the software ADAMS,and simulated cinematically subsequently.The working process of the equipment reappeared,and the charts of displacement,velocity and acceleration of main components were plotted in ADAMS.The characteristics of virtual prototyping have been checked out.It offered technology guideline for design and production of cold ring rolling mill.
