  • Patent number: 6138886
    Abstract: A device in a wire rolling mill includes a pair of grooved rolls. Each grooved roll is fixedly attached to the free end of a rotatably supported spindle. Each grooved roll is positionable relative to the other so that they between themselves define a rolling gap of adjustable size. At least one of the spindles is arranged integrally with the output shaft of an electro motor. The electro motor drives the spindle directly thereby avoiding heavy and space-requiring transmissions.
