The library contains programs for making all relevant and necessary calculations for setting up the mill on daily basis as well as for making new pass designs and designing new mills. The DOS version of ROLLING has been in the market since 1985 and the first Windows version was released 1998. The ROLLING library is used by more than 120 companies around the world for improving the process conditions in existing mills (see the Reference list on the back). The program covers all different mill layouts from single stand blooming mills over old looping trains to modern continuous mills, Kocks blocks and 2-High finishing blocks. The programs cover all the conceivable symmetrical groove shapes and rolling sequences which can occur when rolling finishing Rounds, Squares, Hexagons and Flats in Wire Rod, Bar or Blooming Mills. By combining the basic groove types it is possible to form hundreds of different sequences to be used in the rolling process. It is also possible to make simulation and calculations of the Slit Rolling (2-, 3-, 4-,...) process.
