  "term": "Hot rolling",
  "field": "Industrial and trades",
  "definition": "A metal forming process where metal is heated above its recrystallization temperature and then passed between rollers to reduce its thickness and achieve a desired shape. This process allows for large deformations with relatively low forces and improves the material's ductility. Hot rolling is commonly used to produce sheet metal, structural shapes, and rails.",
