rolling mill
Steel shaping machine
A rolling mill is an industrial machine or factory that shapes metal by passing it between heavy rotating cylinders.
The process compresses and elongates metal into sheets, bars, rails, or other forms of uniform thickness.
Steel mills use rolling mills extensively to produce everything from thin foil to structural beams.
The steel was heated before being fed through the rolling mill.
