  • Publication number: 20230356285
    Abstract: A tool unit for a cold forming machine. The tool unit has a tool slide, which is linearly movable in a longitudinal direction. A carrier for a cold forming rack of the tool unit is provided on the tool slide. By means of an adjustment device, the carrier can be positioned in a working direction. For this purpose carrier can be preferably linearly moved in working direction. In working direction the cold forming rack is supported on the carrier and is clamped by means of a clamping device against the carrier. For this purpose the clamping device has at least one clamping body, which can be moved opposed to a clamping force (F) in working direction and abuts against the cold forming rack. The clamping device is preferably not directly connected with the carrier. The clamping force is particularly supported indirectly or directly on the tool slide by passing carrier.

  • Patent number: 11407023
    Abstract: A cold rolling machine and method for producing a profile on a workpiece. The cold rolling machine having two constructed tool units. Each tool unit has at least one rolling rod extending in the longitudinal direction, a tool slide, a slide drive device, a pivoting carrier and a pivot drive. The at least one rolling rod is fastened to the tool slide and can be moved in the longitudinal direction by the slide drive device. The pivoting carrier can be pivoted about a pivot axis extending in the longitudinal direction by a pivot drive. The tool slide is arranged on the pivoting carrier. An angle of inclination can thereby be set between the two rolling rods, which angle of inclination can have, for example, a value of 0 degrees to 2.0 degrees or to 0.2 degrees. Conical profiles can thereby be produced in the workpiece.
