Abstract: A double-rod ram (1), preferably for an extruder, comprising an outer cylinder (10), an inner cylinder (20) installed therein and arranged concentrically therewith, a double-acting work piston (41) provided in the inner cylinder to be displaceable and a bypass device (50) with at least one bypass valve (52), wherein the work piston (41) divides the inner cylinder (20) into two compartments (42) and can be loaded with a hydraulic fluid from both compartments (42), wherein the bypass device (50) is so arranged that in a bypass position of the bypass valve (52) a fluid connection between the two compartments (42) is formed by a direct connection, preferably at least one bypass line, and in a work position of the bypass valve (52) no such fluid connection is present.

Abstract: A measuring device that is able to function even in rough environments, for example under great heat or in environments in which water or steam is found, as is the case in rolling mills, among other environments, has a housing, a central measuring device that passes through the housing in a straight line, and a measuring coil that is disposed in the housing and encloses the measuring opening. The device has a coil carrier that is disposed in the housing radially outside of the measuring coil and carries the measuring coil.

Abstract: A single carriage of the drawing apparatus for pulling a continuous metal workpiece through a drawing die is displaceable back and forth by a linear electronic motor drive. A coil forms a supply upstream of the die which can pay off a length of the workpiece to form a loop adapted to be drawn through the die without tensioning it against the coil.

Abstract: In the planetary skew rolling blooms to form seamless metal tubing or pipe the internal tool is retracted at the leading and/or trailing end of the tubular bloom to allow the rolls to seal the end or ends and prevent coolant from entering the rolled tubing or bloom. The internal tool is advanced back into its normal rolling position after the end has passed the rolling location.

Abstract: A drawing apparatus for drawing metal and articles has at last one drawing carriage and a linear motor complex which determines the pattern of movement of that carriage and hence of the drawing operation.

Abstract: A drawing apparatus is assembled from modular units utilizing modular path-forming members and holder modules which can carry the drawing die and drawing carriages shiftable on the guide modules. The drives for the carriages are individual linear motors whose stationary components are the modular path-forming members disposed end-to-end.

Abstract: An apparatus for drawing a strand has a frame extending in a longitudinal direction, a pair of substantially identical linear motors each having a primary fixed on the frame, and a movable secondary slidable along the respective primary in the direction. The primaries extend parallel to the direction and are transversely spaced on a plane extending in the direction. A strand clamp capable of gripping the strand is fixed between the secondaries. Electricity is supplied to the primaries to longitudinally displace the secondaries and clamp in the frame so that the clamp and any strand held by it are advanced longitudinally through the frame.
