Correcting the axis inclination
Before the first rolling process, the axis inclination should be set to the 0 position (see
Chapter 5.1.2). If the rolled profile is tapered, it can be corrected by changing the incli-
nation of the roll axes to one another. To do this, proceed as follows:
■
Loosen the cap screw (ET-25)

It is now possible to slightly pull out and turn the roll axis (3).
The roll axes are marked on the gear unit arm side with a slot (1). This points to
the marking (2) on the rolling head arm (see Figure 23-left) in the zero position. To
increase the workpiece pitch diameter on the narrow arm side, turn the slot of both
axes by the same amount against each other to the inner side of the rolling head, as
depicted in Figure 23-right. To reduce the workpiece pitch diameter on the narrow
arm side, turn the markings outward.
ATTENTION
Make sure to retighten the cap screws (ET-25) before the next rolling
process. Otherwise this may result in damage to the roll or gear unit.
