NCC (Numerically Controlled Cold Roll) is a type of cold rolling machine that uses numerical control to reduce the thickness of metal and other materials while maintaining the original shape. It is used in industries like automotive, aerospace, and construction.
NCC rollers are used in a variety of applications, including rolling thin gauge material, controlling transition thickness and shape profiles, and providing a repeatable, uniform quality surface. The rollers can also be used to reduce high carbon steel and stainless steel with delicate alloys.
The two main types of NCC rollers are the paper mill and the hot mill. Paper mill rollers are designed to reduce the thickness and create uniform quality surface of light-gauge metals, while hot mill rollers are used in high-temperature rolling applications to reduce thickness and prevent surface defects.
The advantage of using NCC roller is that it can produce quality surface finishes, maintain cross-section shapes, and can have a wide range of temperature and speed settings to suit a variety of jobs. In addition, it can be programmed to work with both coil and sheet material and can reduce the material down to as little as a few micrometers.
Some of the other uses for NCC rolling are forming hats and rings, shaping rods and tubing, redrawing thin gauge products like needles, and for stress relief. NCC rollers can also be used in hot rolling processes, like those used in the alloy and forging industry, to reduce material temperature during forging to create desired shapes and sizes.
Additionally, NCC rollers can be used in the fabrication and machining industry to accurately machine components and tools. This helps to reduce the cycle time while increasing accuracy and surface finish.
Finally, NCC rollers can be used in the medical industry to shape medical implants and instruments. By accurately controlling the temperature and speed settings, these rollers can create repeatable shapes and profiles that are essential in medical components.
In conclusion, NCC roller is a versatile machine used for the reduction of the thickness of a variety of materials to a desired size. It can be used for rolling thin gauge materials, forming and shaping specific parts, and accurately machining components. With its wide range of temperature settings and its ability to work with both coil and sheet stock, the NCC roller can be used in a variety of industries, including the automotive, aerospace, construction, medical, and forging industries.
