tapered lamination

Tech/Engineering - Forestry / Wood / Timber / wood lamination
Romanian term or phrase: tapered lamination
There are 2 basic lamination shapes; parallels and tapers. Parallels stay the same thickness from one end to the other, whereas tapered laminations are thick at the butt end and get gradually thinner as you move towards the tip.

What taper in a bowlimb does is create a bullwhip effect, theoretically snapping the bowstring taut and thereby increasing efficiency. It also makes the limb "open up" smoothly. Too much taper in a limb, depending on the design, can cause a bow to stack, however. Some bowyers prefer a combination of tapers and parallels, some prefer all tapers and others all parallels. Experience will dictate your final preferences and opinions.

laminare înclinată


Explanation:
Eu nu am cunoscut o astfel de laminare înclinată. Zice că are o grosime la un capăt și o altă grosime la celălalt capăt. Adică pe toată lungimea are o înclinație. Asta ar însemna că cilindrii de laminare se apropie în timpul laminării în mod constant. Este ceva ce nu se potrivește tehnologic: lungimea laminatului impune o anumită înclinație (dar lungimea depinde de volumul semifabricatului și poate varia în anumite limite și ar rezulta astfel diferite înclinații).
