Abstract: With the method for manufacturing a composite brake disc, which includes a brake disc chamber and a friction ring having an inner profiling, a brake disc chamber blank is introduced into the friction ring. The brake disc chamber blank is then formed into the inner profiling via at least one embossing tool. A composite brake disc permitting a good torque transmission between the friction ring and the brake disc chamber can be manufactured in a cold-forming manner in this way. The forming-in can take place in a hammering manner, in particular by successively implementing a plurality of embossing steps in the region of different profile gaps of the inner profiling. Axial stops can also be simultaneously produced on forming-in. The axial stops serve to stop the brake disc chamber and the friction ring (3) are prevented from axially sliding apart.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for producing cylindrical workpieces (1) having defined profiled sections. The device comprises a workpiece holder (2) that is axially displaceable and intermittently rotates about a longitudinal axis (Z), and shaping tools (9; 12) that periodically act upon the workpiece. The inventive device is characterized by at least one drive (11) for the intermittent rotation of the workpiece holder (2), which is mechanically separate from the drive (8) for the shaping tools (9; 12). The drive (11) is linked with an electronic control which controls the intermittent rotational movement depending on the drive (8) of the shaping tools (9; 12). The invention allows to adjust any intermittent movement relative to the position and angle of the workpiece (1), thereby contributing to a precise and especially rapid processing of the workpiece (1).

Abstract: A punching and stamping machine has a movably guided die plate frame, in which an eccentric shaft for the drive of the die is simultaneously disposed. The die plate frame is moved by means of a plate cam which is directly coupled with the eccentric shaft As a result, a forcibly guided movement is achieved between the die and the die plate which, with respect to the workpiece to be machined, is superimposed such that the die carries out only minimal movements with respect to the workpiece and therefore, particularly in the case of a hollow-cylindrical workpiece, permits the machining from the interior side to the exterior. As a result of this forced guidance, very high operating speeds can advantageously be achieved with a high precision.

Abstract: A process and device for manufacturing cylindrical hollow bodies out of a blank through cold forming using roll cylinders is provided. The axes of the roll cylinders in this process are essentially adjusted parallel to the axis of the workpiece and execute, essentially radial to the workpiece, an oscillating, reciprocating movement. This reciprocating movement is executed in such a manner that in the upper oscillation stop the roll cylinders and the workpiece preferably just barely touch each other without the application of force, and in the lower oscillation stop preferably dip into the surface of the workpiece up to the desired infeed depth in order to achieve the demanded external diameter of the workpiece. With this process the very high static pressures required for press roll machines can be avoided, which results in small and light engine frames, and simultaneously makes it possible to machine workpieces with flanges directly up to the flanges.

Abstract: In an impact rolling apparatus the axes of roller heads are arranged substantially perpendicularly relative to the longitudinal axis of the workpiece. Accordingly, a displacing of the material at the workpiece proceeds predominantly tangentially perpendicularly to the longitudinal axis of the workpiece, caused by the impact effect of the impact rollers mounted at the roller heads. By this arrangement of the roller heads impact rolling operations can be performed close to a shoulder of the workpiece and marked steps thus maintaining the advantages over the known impact rolling method at which the displacement of the material proceeds predominantly in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the workpiece.

Abstract: In a sun-and-planet toothed wheel gearing the width of the tooth spaces of the toothing of the hollow wheel is preferably made three times larger than at a common toothing with substantially the identical widths of the teeth and tooth spaces. Such a inventive toothing can be produced specifically simple and precise by means of non-cutting methods, preferably an impact rolling.

Abstract: Process for the production of a toothed rack via cold forming, the rack produced thereby, and an apparatus for practicing the process. The cold formed rack workpiece shows multiple traces of cold forming in the toothing direction. During the production process, the workpiece, in the apparatus, is moved transversely to the axis of the rolling head, relative to the rotatably driven rolling head. Rolls, having forming ribs, are rotatably journalled within the rolling head, along at least one helical line, with the rolls rotating with the rolling head in a planetary manner. Thereby, each roll performs, in quick sequence, single rolling steps that overlap each other in the feed direction of the apparatus slide. Therein, the tooth space form-type forming ring ribs engage the workpiece.

Abstract: The well-known Grob cold forming machine for carrying out the Grob method of impact roll-shaping utilizes rolling head carriers that move toward and away from the workpiece wherein each rolling head carrier is provided with rotatably driven rolling heads. Journalled in the rolling heads are impact formers or rollers which, during rotation of the rolling head, within their circle of rotation perform single forming steps on the workpiece which is mounted on a mandrel. In addition, each rolling head carrier carries a freely rotatably journalled pressure roll having an axis parallel to or angled relative to the mandrel axis, the pressure roll being located outside the rotational circle of the impact former. Via the use of pressure rolls, mainly axial shaping is achieved and thereafter, via the use of the impact former, mainly radial shaping is achieved in the same set-up and on the same mandrel.

Abstract: The well known Grob method, as practiced on a Grob machine, uses at least a partially profiled mandrel wherein during a cold forming operation, via a forming or impact roller of a workpiece blank, produces a hollow workpiece that is profiled at least internally wherein the material is shaped radially as well as axially in a single operation and the axial and radial shaping of the workpiece blank is achieved at least internally as a whole or in part in a straight or helical manner relative to the workpiece axis, by means of this forming roller and achieves the economical production of high quality workpieces in a single operation, with outer profiling also being achievable, and the difference (D) between the outer radius (RO) of the workpiece blank and the outer radius (RD) of the mandrel preferably being the same as or smaller than the length (WL) of the finished workpiece.

Abstract: Rolling tools are rotatably mounted in rotatably driven rolling heads such that they revolve in a planetary-like fashion while the rolling heads rotate. The rolling tools thus roll with blows or impacts upon the outer surface of the rotating workpiece which is advanced along its lengthwise axis. A diameter reduction of the workpiece occurs and the workpiece material is predominantly displaced in lengthwise direction. The workpiece is moved along its axis in the feed direction at an axial feed velocity of at least 3 millimeters for each workpiece revolution, and in the case of hollow workpieces preferably at least at 5 millimeters per workpiece revolution. Difficulties which otherwise arise for certain materials can thus be avoided, and also the production speed and quality can be increased. For hollow workpieces, undergoing internal profiling upon a mandrel, the workpiece which is advanced at high axial feed is preferably also cold rolled during its return feed or motion.
