Abstract: The effect of cross-shear rolling on the cold-rolling and recrystallized texture of IF (interstitial-free) steel was studied, where the rules of simulated shearing strain changing with the ratio of speed of rolls are applied to the texture simulation based on Taylor model to analyze the effect of shearing strain Εxz on texture deformation. The results showed that after cold rolling the componential α fiber texture decreases gradually and γ fiber texture increases slightly with increasing ratio of asynchronous rolling speeds. And the fact is mainly resulting from the additional shearing strain during cross-shear rolling. The formation of {111}<uvw> recrystallization nucleus was found in no relation to the {001}<110> component. Moreover, the volume percentage of recrystallized {111}<112> component resulting from asynchronous rolling is obviously higher than that resulting from synchronous rolling. This is because the volume percentage of {111}<112> component resulting from cold rolling is obviously higher than that resulting from synchronous rolling.
