Provided is a glassy carbon roll-type mold manufacturing method for fine pattern formation. The method is for manufacturing a glassy carbon roll-type mold configured to form a fine pattern having a micro-nano structure on a substrate including glass or a metal. The method includes: preparing a roll precursor including a thermosetting resin material, the roll precursor having a roll shape with a circumferential surface on which a pattern corresponding to the fine pattern is formed, the roll precursor being configured to press the substrate while rotating on the substrate; and carbonizing the roll precursor.

Provided is a hot-dip galvanized steel sheet used for an automobile outer panel and so forth and, more specifically, to a method for producing a hot-dip galvanized steel sheet having excellent press formability and clarity after painting, and to a hot-dip galvanized steel sheet produced by the method.

Provided is a method for manufacturing a steel plate that includes plastic working as preliminary processing before press working and is capable of keeping the press formability of the steel plate after the preliminary processing. A method for manufacturing a steel plate used for press working, and the method includes: preparing a steel plate containing C: 0.03 to 0.50 mass % and Mn: 2.0 to 20 mass % and having a ratio of residual austenite in a metallographic structure that is 20 to 50 volume %; and plastic working at least a part of the prepared steel plate while heating the steel plate at 50 C. or higher for preliminary processing before press working.

A method for producing a metal sheet with raised lines uses a rolling mill including roll stands. In a preparing step, a grooved roll is prepared, the grooved roll including grooves. In a choosing step, a stand at least one stage before the last stand is chosen. In an incorporating step, the grooved roll is incorporated in as an upper roll of the chosen, specified stand. In a forming step, a workpiece is formed into a metal sheet with raised lines formed corresponding to the respective grooves. In the forming step, a maximum rolling reduction achieved by rolls of the specified stand is set to a provisional value that is lower than a required value. After the leading edge of the workpiece reaches the stand next to the specified stand, the maximum rolling reduction of the specified stand is changed to the required value.

Provided is a hot-dip galvanized steel sheet used for an automobile outer panel and so forth and, more specifically, to a method for producing a hot-dip galvanized steel sheet having excellent press formability and clarity after painting, and to a hot-dip galvanized steel sheet produced by the method.

An apparatus for the hot production of strip (N) including a casting machine (11) configured to cast a thin slab (TS), a heating device (16) configured to maintain the temperature of and/or heat said thin slab (TS), at least one roughing unit (19) and a finishing unit (20) configured to obtain a strip (N), and wherein said casting machine (11), the heating device (16), the roughing unit (19), and the finishing unit (20) are disposed aligned along a common working axis (Z).

A roller tool for a machine tool for the linear forming of a metal sheet comprises a housing, a tool head which for reversibly interacting with a ram of the machine tool is mounted so as to be rotatable relative to the housing about a tool longitudinal axis, having an impact face for transmitting a contact pressure force that is oriented so as to be parallel to the tool longitudinal axis from the ram to the tool head, and a rotary engagement for transmitting a rotating movement about the tool longitudinal axis from the ram to the tool head, and a roller installation for interacting with the metal sheet, having at least one roller body that is capable of being rotatingly driven by way of the tool head.

Provided herein are systems and methods for containing a viscous material, such as a coolant, on a roll and/or a roll processed engineering material (e.g., a metal strip). In particular, a viscous material containment system can include a movable seal and a gas delivery device. A method for cooling a roll can include applying a viscous material, such as a coolant, to the roll and containing the viscous material on the roll using the viscous material containment system. In some cases, the viscous material containment system can be used to facilitate removal of the viscous material from the roll and/or the roll processed engineering material.

The present invention relates to a method and an apparatus for changing the effective contour of a running surface (8) of a working roller (3, 4) during the hot rolling of rolling stock in a roll stand (2) to form a rolled strip (1). The intention is to be able to change the contour of the running surface (8) during the hot rolling by means of the invention. This object is achieved according to the invention by the axial displacement of the working rollers (3, 4) in opposite directions by a displacement distance s, wherein s is greater or less than $\frac{r}{\tan \left(\right)}$
and r indicates the wear of the running surface (8) in the radial direction (R) and indicates the pitch angle of the conical portion (7) of the respective working roller (3, 4).

The invention concerns a method and a plant for producing flat rolled products, in order to obtain strips having a multiple crown transverse profile that subsequently have to be divided in a longitudinal direction into strips of a smaller width; the method provides a rolling step carried out in a rolling mill comprising roughing stands and finishing stands equipped with respective work rolls, in order to supply a strip of a determinate width.
