About the Program
The International Rolling Conference (IRC 2025) continues the tradition of being the premier global event for rolling practitioners, following its predecessors in Italy (2022), Brazil (2019) and Austria (2016). IRC 2025 will be hosted in the U.S. and will gather the entire metals rolling community, encompassing flat and long product rolling, hot and cold rolling, and both ferrous and non-ferrous materials. This conference will delve into the latest advancements in rolling technologies, metallurgy and process innovations. It will cover critical topics such as advanced rolling mills, along with the design, control, quality, sustainability, artificial intelligence in rolling and digitalization of mill assets. By bringing together industry leaders, researchers and engineers, the conference aims to encourage collaboration, share best practices, and explore future developments, ensuring a comprehensive exchange of knowledge and expertise in rolling technology.
Who Should Attend
IRC 2025 is intended to attract a wide and varied audience.
