Abstract: Changing rolls in rolling equipment is performed more efficiently. For this purpose, a roll changing device (12) for changing a pair of top and bottom work rolls (21) provided in a rolling mill (11) for rolling a strip to be passed therethrough includes: a work roll holding unit (51) holding the pair of top and bottom work rolls (21) in an attachable/detachable manner and capable of moving the work rolls (21) in a threading direction; a roll holding device (31) including the work roll holding unit (51) and capable of moving in a roll axis direction relative to the rolling mill (11) in a state of holding the work rolls (21) by using the work roll holding unit (51); and a work roll transfer device (32) capable of moving in a direction intersecting with a moving path of the roll holding device (31) and capable of mounting the work rolls (21).
Abstract: A press guiding device for a baler includes at least one continuous pressing device, at least two pressing segments, and at least one guiding device arranged at least partially between the pressing segments. The at least one guiding device is supported in a rotationally secure manner at or on a common axle with a roller.

Abstract: In an endless rolling line, a speed of a material to be rolled changes with a flying thickness change. A temperature control device executes predictive calculation of a speed change amount of the material to be rolled associated with the flying thickness change and updates a speed pattern. The temperature control device executes feedforward control of an amount of a coolant to cool the material to be rolled based on a latest speed pattern and a measured temperature value of the material to be rolled in an entry side of the heat exchanger. In parallel with the feedforward control, the temperature control device executes feedback control of coolant volume based on an error between the measured temperature value of the material to be rolled in the delivery side of the heat exchanger and a target value.

Abstract: A method of production of a shaped article able to suppress occurrence of shaping defects, that is, a method of production of a shaped article including a first step of press-forming a metal plate (1a) into a U-shape to obtain a U-shaped article (1b) having a bottom part (2) straight extending in a longitudinal direction and a second step of press-forming the U-shaped article (1b) to bend it in the longitudinal direction so that the bottom part (2) of the part projects to the inside and obtain a U-cross-section bent article (1c).
Abstract: A quick-change die assembly for a necker machine includes an outer die mounting, an outer die, an outer die quick-release coupling, an inner die mounting, an inner die assembly, and an inner die quick-release coupling. The outer die is coupled to the outer die mounting by the outer die quick-release coupling. The inner die assembly is coupled to the inner die mounting by the inner die quick-release coupling.

Abstract: A portable grinding/shredding/chipping system with a drive track assembly which is manipulatable to facilitate altering the orientation of the portable grinding/shredding/chipping system. This arrangement results in improved loading and processing, of both long and short materials, as well as facilitates connection of a transport dolly and a transport truck/tractor without requiring any additional lifting mechanism. A pivotable housing provides greater access to the rotor and has an over-center arrangement which prevents the pivotable housing from inadvertently moving or pivoting back into engagement with the rotor. The portable grinding/shredding/chipping system is provided with a belt drive assembly which facilitates modification of the rotational speed of the rotor by merely replacing a sheave of the belt drive assembly. Lastly, both head and tail pulleys are driven by a respective motor so that a catinary of the discharge conveyor is radiussed which shortens an axial length of the system.
Abstract: An apparatus for producing an inner spiral grooved tube, the apparatus includes first and second bobbins, one of which is an unwinding bobbin and the other of which is a winding bobbin; a floating frame that supports a shaft of the first bobbin; a rotary shaft that supports the floating frame though bearings and rotates in a direction perpendicular to an axis of a bobbin in the floating frame; a revolving flyer configured to invert a tube route of a tubular material between the first bobbin and the second bobbin, to convey the tubular material, and to revolve the tubular material around the floating frame as being supported by the rotary shaft; and first and second drawing dies positioned on a front stage and a rear stage of the revolving flyer, respectively, in the tube route of the tubular material
Abstract: A rotary tablet press has a rotating mold table and top and bottom punches, which can move reciprocally in punch guides, coaxially with the molds. The reciprocating motion of at least the bottom punches is cam-controlled and these punches are acted upon by a releasable punch dampener to prevent an overshoot of their movement and to ensure an action which is as free from wear. It is as maintenance-free as possible whilst maintaining constant damping of the bottom punches. The releasable punch dampener releases with one motion and has a linear release shaft with a release surface and a dampening surface.
Abstract: A set includes a plurality of coffee grinders, each coffee grinder including: a body, a grinding unit, actuation means to activate the grinding unit, a load cell to weigh a filter holder, and booking means to book the activation of the coffee grinder; the set has a central control unit to receive a booking signal from the booking means of each coffee grinder and create an ordered list with an activation sequence of the coffee grinders; the central control unit is connected to the load cell of all coffee grinders to send an activation command of the load cell to a coffee grinder at a time according to the sequence indicated by the ordered list.
