The present study discusses the process of cross-wedge rolling (CWR), which is a modern way of using metal to form axially symmetric products. The work discusses in detail such problems as the CWR process principle and application fields of the process, main parameters of the process, advantages of CWR, CWR methods, kinematics of material flow, rolling radius, diameter increase of rolled parts, states of strain and stress, material–tool contact surface, unit pressure on contact surface, forces in the CWR process, CWR process limitations (uncontrolled slipping between material and tool, necking of formed parts, and internal cracking), wedge tool construction, choice of wedge angles, wedge tool construction methods, technological allowances and production tolerance, description of CWR technological methods, examples of applications of the CWR technology, and, finally, CWR machines.
