  • Method of and device for reducing the static friction between a reel and a coil
    Patent number: 7770838
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method of releasing a reel awe, which is hydraulically restrained by a self-locking effect by means of inwardly located wedge surfaces of expansion elements. Removal of a coil from a reel awe is achieved, without problems, by lifting off the self-locking effect of the expansion elements at least partially or completely by applying longitudinal vibrations acting in an axial direction. The invention also relates to a correspondingly formed device.

  • Laying apparatus for winding rings of rolled rod
    Publication number: 20010020662
    Abstract: A laying apparatus for forming rings of a rod-shaped rolled strand has at least part of the cantilevered portion of the lying apparatus cantilevered from the main bearing composed of a material lighter than steel to reduce gravitational sag and increase the resonant frequency, thereby increasing the speed of the strand.
