Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing a circular cylindrical body (10) comprising a workable mass, having at least one helical internal cavity extending in the interior of the body. The body (10) is initially produced with a straight internal recess, for example by means of extrusion. Afterwards the body is cut to a defined length. The body (10) that has been cut to length is then subjected to a rolling process by means of a friction surface arrangement (23) while being supported over the entire length thereof on a support means (16). The rolling process takes place in multiple steps, wherein a rolling movement using a first axis of rotation (25) is performed in a first step, and a rolling movement using a second axis of rotation (26) that is different from the first axis of rotation is used in a second step. The invention also relates to an apparatus for performing the method.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing a toothing on a component of a shaft/hub connection is disclosed. The component may be held permanently in a chucking while it receives an at least two-stage toothing in this chucking. A special draw die for carrying out the method is also proposed, a first toothing-forming region with a first height and at least one following second toothing-forming region with at least one second height being arranged between a first and a second end face, and the first height being designed to be lower than the second height.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device called a rotating head which is used to deform the edge of the points or nibs of ball-point pens. The inventive device has two rotating rolls which are installed so that they can pivot freely in the rotating head. The rotating rolls can turn freely around aligned axes. The rolls each have forming disks and are arranged to define a gap between the front surfaces of the forming disks. A tongue having a V-shaped end face is disposed in the gaps and can be moved against a spring. The tongue engages a tip ball in a nib positioned between the rotating rolls to be formed into a finished nib.

Abstract: A method of rolling rod-shaped rolling stock, particularly rod steel or wire, in a roll stand having two work rolls which are adjustable relative to each other in an adjusting direction and which together form a roll groove with an actual roll gap, so that the rolling stock exits the roll stand with an actual height and an actual width at a rolling speed, wherein the rolling stock is rolled with an actual rolling force. The method includes the steps of adjusting the work rolls through a hydraulic cylinder unit; measuring the actual rolling force; measuring with the aid of the actual rolling force a roll gap spring-back resulting from the rolling force; determining with the aid of the roll gap spring-back and a desired roll gap a roll adjustment correction value such that the actual roll gap approaches the desired roll gap; and changing a roll adjustment within a stand control time by the roll adjustment correction value.

Abstract: A method to control the drawing of rolled stock in a segment of the rolling line includes measuring the section of the rolled stock passing through is made by a first detector located at the outlet of the semi-finishing block and by a second detector located at the inlet to the finishing block. The method also carries out at least a measurement of the section of the rolled stock with a third detector located at the outlet of the finishing block, the drawing action being controlled and regulated by a control unit by comparing the measurements of the section at the outlet of the semi-finishing block, at the inlet to the finishing block and at the outlet thereof with the corresponding values memorized in tables in the control unit.

Abstract: A roll pass of a roll set having three rolls for a multi-stand mandrel-free stretch reducing mill has a roll pass shape that deviates from the circular. A tube is passed in its longitudinal direction through the non-circular roll pass shape enabling modification of a shape of a cross-section of the tube, so as to counteract the non-circular external diameter deviations of the tube. A final roll pass (finishing pass) of the stretch reducing mill is locally enlarged at peripheral points where the tube diameter of the entering tube would otherwise deviate downward from a target size and locally reduced in size at the peripheral points where the tube diameter would otherwise deviate upward from the target size.

Abstract: A method of regulating the cross-section of rolling stock through a looper for the rolling stock, particularly between roll stands in section rolling mills. In accordance with the method, the horizontal forces in the rolling stock are varied by varying the loop height, and width increases or width adjustments of the rolling stock are purposefully influenced through the horizontal forces.

Abstract: Method and device to control between rolling stands the drawing of the rolled stock (14) in a segment (10) of a rolling line, the segment (10) possibly comprising two conventional rolling stands with or without an interposed drawing unit (19), a conventional rolling stand and a drawing unit (19), a rolling stand and a fast rolling block (11a), two fast rolling blocks (11a, 11b) with an intermediate thermomechanical treatment or another type of combination of rolling units, there being included a possible intake drawing unit (12) and a possible discharge drawing unit (13) associated with a shears (20), the method including the measuring of the drawing action applied to the rolled stock (14) in the segment between stands comprised between two rolling units, one upstream (11a) and the other downstream (11b) and/or between a rolling unit and the relative drawing unit (19).

Abstract: The rotational speed of the rolls of a rolling mill is controlled such that the loops of rolled material between two roll stands have a constant height. The last roll stand in the direction of rolling preferably acts as a guide roller stand, whose speed is controlled. The loop height is controlled by adjusting the rotational speed of the roll stand ahead of the loop.

Abstract: According to the present invention, in the rolling of an H-shaped steel wherein a roughly shaped billet subjected to a breakdown rolling and having a web and flanges is formed into a shape steel having H-shaped cross section by passing it through an array of rolling facilities for a shape steel constituted by combining a universal rough rolling mill with a universal finish rolling mill, a thickness of each flange at four locations, i.e.

Abstract: An apparatus for making a dental root canal filling point is provided, wherein provision is made of a rotary member having its outer processing surface in the form of a curved plane in parallel with its axial direction and adapted to be rotated at a predetermined speed and a moving member in which at least its processing surface is located in parallel with the processing surface of the rotary member and adapted to move at a speed substantially identical with a peripheral speed of the rotary member in the same direction as the rotational direction of the rotary member in a gap portion in which a minimum distance is defined between the processing surfaces of the rotary member and moving member.

Abstract: A machine and process for forming a high strength precision bar joint and more particularly for forming rolled tapered threads on a bar end such as the tapered end of a reinforcing bar used in concrete construction. Such machine and process employs opposed oppositely rotating die disks which have conical opposed die surfaces. A thread form die is provided on the conical die surfaces in the form of thread form spirals which bear against the opposite sides of the tapered bar surface as the die disks rotate. The die surfaces include opposed recesses into which the bar end is inserted. The bar may be held for rotation against a stop as the die disks oppositely rotate. Alternatively the bar end may be held against rotation and the die disks orbited around the bar end as the die disks oppositely rotate. A tapered surface is formed on the bar end prior to roll forming of such threads as by hot or cold forging or by cutting.
