Applying the science of finite element analysis, it is possible to determine the displacements, strains, and stresses that a component would experience under various loads. The results of finite element analysis are used in product development, product optimization, and conceptual studies of novel concepts. This study analyzed and optimized the cold rolling mill roll chock using Ansys14.5. The investigation involves applying modifications to the existing top backup chock, bottom backup chock, and top and work roll chock designs while taking into account a single material (Fe 316). The optimized chock would use less material while still being strong enough compared to existing chocks. Based on observations, after modifications were implemented to bottom work roll chocks, the equivalent stress and total deformation were reduced by 34.45% and 92.68%, respectively, compared to the existing bottom work roll chocks. The weight of the top and bottom working roll chocks decreased by 32.7% and 27.7%, respectively, after optimization. The best results indicate that it will be advantageous to construct Rolling Mill Housing with less weight while maintaining the same strength, which will be cost-effective and long-lasting.
