Roller shaft forgings are key components in industrial equipment used to transmit torque, withstand pressure, and achieve plastic deformation of materials. They perform extrusion, leveling, forming, or conveying of materials through rotational motion. Their core function is to convert power into the required pressure or friction force, widely applied in processes such as rolling, calendaring, coiling, and leveling. Roller shaft forgings must possess high strength, high wear resistance, excellent fatigue resistance, and precise dimensional accuracy to ensure long-term stable operation under complex working conditions.
Classification of Roller Shaft Forgings
1. By structural form:
- Integral roller shaft: forged or cast as a whole, suitable for small to medium-sized equipment, simple structure, and high reliability.
- Composite roller shaft: composed of shaft core, outer sleeve, and other parts assembled by interference fit, welding, or bolted connections, suitable for large equipment or scenarios requiring sectional replacement.
2. By material type:
- Carbon steel roller shaft (e.g., 45 steel): lower cost, suitable for light or medium load conditions.
- Alloy forged steel roller shaft (e.g., 42CrMo, 40CrNiMo): high strength and toughness, suitable for heavy load, high speed, or high temperature environments.
- Special material roller shaft (e.g., stainless steel, tool steel): used in corrosion-resistant or high hardness requirement scenarios.
3. By surface treatment:
- Smooth surface roller shaft: suitable for precision leveling processes.
- Patterned/grooved roller shaft: used for special forming needs (e.g., rubber embossing, paper embossing).
Specifications
1. Size range:
- Diameter: φ80mm to φ1600mm (diameter of roller shafts for large rolling mills can exceed 2 meters).
- Length: 0.5m to 12m (extra-long roller shafts require sectional manufacturing).
- Weight: from tens of kilograms to tens of tons (e.g., roller shafts for large rolling mills can weigh over 20 tons).
2. Material properties:
- Hardness: surface hardness HRC 50-65 (adjusted according to working conditions).
- Yield strength: ≥800MPa (alloy forged steel).
- Surface roughness: Ra ≤ 0.8μm (for high-precision calendaring requirements).
3. Tolerance standards:
- Journal roundness tolerance ≤ 0.01mm, coaxiality ≤ 0.03mm.
Key Parameters
1. Mechanical performance:
- Fatigue strength: enhanced by strengthening processes (e.g., fillet rolling) to ensure no fracture after millions of cycles.
- Wear resistance coefficient: surface hardened layer depth 0.5-2mm, suitable for high friction environments.
2. Thermal stability:
- Maintains dimensional stability under high temperature (≤300℃) environments to avoid thermal deformation.
3. Lubrication and cooling design:
- Built-in oil channels or cooling passages to reduce friction heat accumulation and extend service life.
4. Dynamic balance:
- High-speed roller shafts must undergo dynamic balance testing, vibration amplitude ≤ 0.02mm to prevent resonance.
Working Principle
1. Plastic deformation: e.g., roller shafts in rolling mills thin or form metal sheets by extrusion.
2. Leveling treatment: e.g., pressure roller shafts in papermaking machines eliminate surface ripples on materials.
3. Coiling and conveying: e.g., pressure roller shafts in plastic film production lines pull materials for continuous movement.
4. Special processes: e.g., patterned roller shafts emboss patterns on material surfaces.
Application Scope
1. Steel industry: core transmission components of rolling mills, leveling machines, and coiling machines.
2. Non-ferrous metal processing: aluminum foil rolling mills, copper plate calendaring equipment.
3. Rubber and tire manufacturing: embossing machines, vulcanizing machines.
4. Building materials machinery: glass calendaring, ceramic plate forming.
Important Features
1. High strength and fatigue resistance:
- Using full fiber forging process, dense internal structure without pores or cracks.
2. High wear and corrosion resistance:
- Surface quenching, hard chrome plating, nitriding treatment, or coating technologies to adapt to harsh environments.
3. Precision machining and dimensional stability:
- High-precision grinding and online inspection to ensure micron-level accuracy.
4. Lightweight design:
- Hollow structure or topology optimization to reduce weight while maintaining stiffness.
5. Long service life and low maintenance:
- Design life ≥ 15,000 hours to reduce downtime and replacement costs.
