Chicago Dreis & Krump 3-Roll Single Pinch Hydraulic Plate Bending Rolls

All push button operation! The lower pinch roll has our special hydraulic powered "quick gap set" which is a real time saver for metal thickness set up. The pinch roll is also easily tiltable for cone rolling. An adjustable position attachment for making cones is included. Allows for both the stop-start-adjust method or the vice grip holding method of cone rolling. Push button hydraulic opening of the top roll bearing assembly for easy finished part removal. As with all CHICAGO bending rolls, the frames are made of extra heavy welded steel construction. The rolls are made from forged steel and heat treated to RC45. Heavy duty spherical roller bearings on all three rolls minimize friction loss. The rear bending roll is equipped with a GOTO LED digital readout indicating its position for accurate repeat forming. Positioning of the rear bending roll is done hydraulically via push buttons and allows the operator to tilt it for cone forming. An emergency stop button and keylock on/off power switch are centrally located on the control panel. Excellent machine for frequent use.

A 4 Roll machine is more expensive but it can roll many parts in one or two passes through the machine accurately and repeatably. Because it has a bending roll on each side it can also roll parts tighter than a standard 3 roll machine. Remove the flat spots at the begining and end of your plate without needing to turn your plate around (like on a single pinch 3 roll) and without losing positioning of your plate (like on a double pinch 3 roll). For frequent plate rolling this is a good choice.

Standard Features:

The top and bottom rolls move the metal though at 16 feet per minute through a planetary gearbox. The bottom pinch roll has a digital readout for repeat positioning for your metal thickness. The machine uses hydraulic cylinders for linear movement of each of the bending rolls. This will help you form tighter diameters with less passes through the machine. A digital readout of each of the bending rolls helps you repeat each of your bending roll locations for repetitive work. The operator control panel is mounted on a pedestal and has your push buttons to control all movements of the machine. The top roll opens via a push button hydraulic control. Emergency stop cables protect both sides of the machine. The machine comes standard at 220 volts, 3 phase electrics but 440 volts is available using an optional transformer.

AKYAPAK AHS 4-Roll Plate Roll Machines

Productive and Reliable

As well as being reliable, AHS increases productivity with its high speed rolling ability and it overcomes the most challenging bends thanks to its ease of use. Since the plate is pinched during rolling, unwanted skidding and slipping of your metal is prevented.

In AHS 4-Roll Plate Rolling Machines, one of the side rolls can be used as a squaring roll, thus the plate can be easily and precisely aligned along the roll across the input direction.

Less Flat Ends with a Single Pass

On AHS 4-Roll Machines, it is possible to achieve a full cylinder in a single pass because the metal can be pinched with the lower-roll during pre-bending and bending. AHS model allows for precise pinching of the plate between upper and lower rolls.
