The rolling equipment
Your complete rolling equipment
consists of four components:
■
Rolling head
■
Rolling head holder
■
Rolls (1 set = 2 pieces)
■
Setting gauge
As the rolling equipment can
be used flexibly for different
processing applications the indi-
vidual components are delivered
independently of each other.

The rolling head – selecting the size
The rolling head is the core of the tangential rolling equipment. The respective version
is available in two sizes: T18F and T27F.
It is recommended to use the largest suitable rolling head for the respective machine
tool to ensure that the largest possible working range is available. This also helps to
achieve larger thread lengths, the max. shoulder diameter D
B
on the workpiece as well
as the maximum cost-efficiency of the rolling head.
Using the following tables and figures check whether the selected rolling head could
result in collisions with the machine tool, spindle or workpiece.
