Recognizing Trends of Roll Grinding Operations

Roll grinding is a specialized form of external cylindrical grinding designed for rolls, which are significantly larger than typical grinding parts. These rolls, used in hot or cold rolling mills, require regular maintenance to remove deformations and ensure smooth mill operation.

Roll maintenance has always been a challenge, but with technological advancements, we can now focus on productivity, quality, and cost efficiency. Rolls made from hard-to-grind materials pose a unique challenge, requiring grinding wheels with a special grain mixture and an advanced bonding system to achieve an efficient grinding process with the desired outcome. In roll grinding, operations constantly seek wheels with high G-ratios and material removal rates (MRR) that don't compromise roll integrity or safety.

Helping You Gain a Competitive Advantage

We address these challenges with custom-made products tailored to your needs, optimizing performance. Our abrasive wheels maximize G-ratios and MRR, ensuring quick material removal while protecting roll quality and safety. Our solutions offer desired surface finishes, preventing defects like feed lines, chattering, or burns and cracks.

Hot Roll Mill Grinding

Roll Grinding Solutions That Deliver Results

In hot rolling mills, rolls face high pressures and heat, causing deformation. Regular grinding is essential to maintain efficiency, focusing on:

High material removal rates | Short grinding times | High G-ratios

In hot rolling mills, abrasives with grit sizes from 30 to 46 are recommended. Our custom grinding wheels, available in all standard dimensions and resin-bonded or vitrified versions, feature an advanced self-sharpening effect and comply with EN 12413 and oSa standards. They are ideal for grinding forged and casted rolls, offering increased G-ratios, extended roll life, and reduced production costs, leading to significant productivity improvements.

Cold Roll Mill Grinding

In cold rolling mills, precision is critical. The grinding process ensures:

The smoothest possible surface without scratches or mark | Uniform straightness across the roll length
Minimal material removal to extend roll life | Specific surface roughness for quality assurance

Rolls are ground to precise roughness levels (0.2µm to 0.5µm) using abrasive grit ranging from 46 to 220. Our specialized grinding wheels, available in resin-bonded or vitrified versions, feature an advanced self-sharpening effect and comply with EN 12413 and oSa standards. They ensure consistent edge shape, prevent defects, and extend wheel life. These features result in flawless finishes, reduced production costs, and enhanced productivity, enabling cold mills to operate with unmatched efficiency and product quality.
