🏭 Hot Strip Mill: Four-Stand Reduction Schedule, Bite Limit and Roll Force (2D)

Side view of a four-stand hot strip mill with rotating rolls and a slab that thins at every stand while moving faster. Set the slab and strip thickness, width, roll radius, friction, flow stress, exit speed and how front-loaded the reduction schedule is, and read the bite limit, contact length, roll force, forward slip and drive power of each stand. Plots show thickness, draft against the bite limit, roll force and power per stand. Four in-page numerical checks.
