By Flow-Forming the rim section of aluminum wheels, it achieves the improvement of product strength and weight reduction, which is not possible by only turning process.
Features
Each roller unit has its individual control axis to allow overlapped process for cycle time reduction.
The axial position of each roller can be easily adjusted with NC program.
The use of a tool change system allows two or more rollers to be switched over during the process (CW/HW Series).
By an optional software, monitoring roller thrust and main spindle motor output are available for cycle time reduction and quality management.
