Abstract
Skin-pass rolls are used for setting the final sheet thickness and surface texture. For sheet metal that is produced for forming, textured skin-pass rolls featuring a high-low structure are used in order to improve the formability and paint adhesion of the sheet. In this paper, new textures for skin-pass rolls generated by high-speed laser melt injection (HSLMI) are presented and characterized. Furthermore, it is studied how the texture of the roll is transferred to steel and aluminum sheets. With HSLMI, metal matrix composite (MMC) layers featuring spherical fused tungsten carbide (SFTC) particles with a high hardness could be produced on skin-pass rolls. For generating an increased high-low structure, laser ablation and electrolytic etching were carried out after HSLMI and grinding of the rolls. An analysis of the topography showed that different protruding heights between SFTC particles and matrix can be set. The textures generated by laser ablation showed a topography featuring two homogeneous height levels, whereas a texture with spherically shaped particles could be generated by electrolytic etching. Furthermore, it was found that all textures were transferred from the roll to both steel and aluminum sheets. The transfer of the textures mainly depended on the protruding height of the SFTC particles and the SFTC particle content of the roll.
