FORGING ROLL
Type AFR - Automatic
Forging Roll
Banning® forging rolls of the "AFR" (Automatic
Forging Roll) series operate fully automatically and
are used for mass pre-distribution to the
downstream forging process.
Process description:
•
The process consists of rolling a steel,
aluminum or titanium bar with a cylindrical or
rectangular cross section in the longitudinal
direction. This rolling action is carried out in
several passes in different tools in order to
distribute the volume of material in the
longitudinal direction in the areas desired for
the stamping operation.
•
BANNING® by its large experience in Motion
Control has completely redesigned this type of
automatic forging roll.
•
The new generation of BANNING® automatic
forging roll integrates a magnetic field
manipulator (2 axes) synchronized to the rolling
rolls which are controlled by servomotors,
compare to old generation of automatic forging
roll which are synchronized mechanically.
The BANNING® Automatic
forging roll AFR advantages:
Installation advantages:
With ist new design, the frame of the AFR
includes the forging rolls as well as the
manipulator. It means an easier and faster
installation without need of special civil works.
Production advantages:
This new BANNING® design eliminates the need
for long and tedious manipulator set-up time
between each production run.The automatic
adjustment possible on the machine allows a
fine adjustment during production without
having to stop the machine. All production
parameters can be stored for future use. The
longitudinal force of the manipulator can be
fine-tuned during the production. Compare to
old generation of automatic forging roll the new
BANNING® AFR allows an energy saving of not
less than 20%.
Maintenance advantages:
This new BANNING® design is without
clutch/brake system and without mechanical
synchronization system, the maintenance costs
and time of the forging roll become very low.
The new BANNING® AFR control system
meets the requirements of Industry 4.0 and
allows a remote access for maintenance
assistance.
