Abstract

The cold rolling process is to provide a plastic deformation to the metal by passing it between
the high-pressure rollers to reduce the thickness of the metal (reduction) which will make the
metal having a strain hardening phenomenon. Strain hardening effects that occur after having
cold rolling can be eliminated by annealing process. To demonstrate the relationship of
properties and structure of the material, cold-rolling research is carried out using copper
plates. Copper specimens are made into 5 samples. Where the samples consist of annealing
process treatment and rolling process. The result of the process of rolling and annealing
treatment indicates that with the increase of strain in the copper after having the process of
cold rolling, the higher also the value of the hardness of the copper. With the treatment of
annealing process causes a decrease in copper hardness. As for the micro structure produced
in the sample given the rolling process is showing the a flat and elongated grain, and for the
sample without the treatment of rolling process indicates the shape of equaxial grain.
