Plate rolling machine is a general equipment for bending metal sheets into cylindrical, arc-shaped or other shaped workpieces. According to the principle of three points forming a circle, the relative position changes and rotational motion of the workpiece are used to cause continuous plastic deformation of the plate to obtain a workpiece of a predetermined shape.
The working capacity of the plate rolling machine refers to the ability of the plate to roll a large plate thickness and width according to the specified yield limit in a cold state with a small roll diameter. Cold rolling methods are widely used at home and abroad. Cold rolling has high precision, simple operation process, and low cost, but it has higher quality requirements for the plate (such as not allowing defects such as chips and cracks), and the consistency of the metallographic structure should be good.
Seven requirements for operating a plate rolling machine
A plate rolling machine is a commonly used metal processing equipment used to roll metal sheets into shape. In order to ensure that operators can use the plate rolling machine safely, the following matters should be paid attention to:
- Before operating the plate rolling machine, check whether its various components (such as rollers, transmission devices, cutters, etc.) are intact.
- Adjust the working speed and tension of the plate rolling machine and select appropriate values as needed.
- Place the metal sheet to be processed at the feeding position of the plate rolling machine, and adjust the clamping device to ensure that the sheet is firmly fixed.
- Adjust the tool position and angle of the plate rolling machine as needed to meet the processing requirements.
- Start the plate rolling machine and observe the situation during the processing.
- Regularly check the working status of the plate rolling machine to ensure the normal operation of each component. If any abnormality is found, stop the machine for maintenance in time.
- After processing is completed, stop the operation of the plate rolling machine and turn off the power.
Conclusion
Almost all steel materials formed into cylindrical shapes are rolled using a plate rolling machine. Plate rolling machines are widely used in boilers, shipbuilding, petroleum, woodworking, metal structures and other machinery manufacturing industries.
During the use of the plate rolling machine, it must be operated in strict accordance with the process requirements and in an orderly manner to prevent the occurrence of dangerous accidents.
