  • Patent number: 7406853
    Abstract: In the transverse wedge rolling machine as claimed in the invention the drive motor is a permanent magnet motor, especially a torque motor. Furthermore the rotational speed of the rollers is controlled depending on their rotary position.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 8, 2006
    Date of Patent: August 5, 2008
    Assignee: Langenstein and Schemann GmbH
    Inventors: Guenter Hofmann, Stelios Katsibardis, Sigfried Hausdoerfer, Henry Zwilling, Guenther Vogler, Herbert Rueger
  • Publication number: 20080110009
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for shaping at least one work piece and to a shaping device, especially for use in said method or for carrying out said method. Said shaping device comprises at least one support (3) for a work piece (4), at least one striking tool, at least one drive device (2) for moving said striking tool relative to the support (3) and at least one position sensing device for determining the position of the striking tool. For shaping the work piece (4), an initial position of the striking tool can be adjusted. A control and regulation device controls and regulates the velocity of the striking tool during a striking motion. According to the method of the invention, the striking tool, during a striking motion from a defined or definable initial position, impacts the work piece (4) present on the support (3) with a defined or definable impact velocity.

For shaping the workpiece (4), an initial position of the striking tool can be adjusted. A control and regulation device controls and regulates the speed of the striking tool during a striking motion. According to the method of the invention, the striking tool, during a striking motion from a defined initial position, impacts the workpiece (4) present on the support (3) with an impact speed. The speed of the striking tool during the striking motion is controlled or regulated subject to the position of the striking tool and subject to the defined impact speed.

  • Patent number: 7010952
    Abstract: A device for holding at least one roller of a rolling machine that can rotate about a rotational axis includes two holding arrangements that can be arranged on opposite faces of the roller viewed in the direction of the rotational axis. The device further includes at least two coupling parts each configured for a coupled mode and an uncoupled mode. A first of the two coupling parts has at least one, preferably essentially straight first groove, and has a second groove that does not run parallel to the first groove. A second of the two coupling parts includes a first coupling element and a second coupling element, wherein the first coupling element projects further outward from the second coupling part than the second coupling element. In at least one implementation, the roller can be detached or removed from the holding arrangements when the holding arrangements are in uncoupled mode.
