Definitions
- the invention relates to a device for forming a tubular workpiece according to the preamble of claim 1 and a method according to the preamble of claim 12.
- the device comprises a machine bed, a headstock mounted on the machine bed, a spinning mandrel mounted on the headstock for receiving the tubular workpiece a chuck mounted on the headstock for chucking a first axial end of the tubular workpiece and at least one forming roller for forming the tubular workpiece around the spinning mandrel.
- a generic device is known for example from EP 2 210 682 A1.
- the invention is based on the invention of providing a device and a method for forming a tubular workpiece, which allow a particularly precise and efficient forming.
- the device according to the invention is characterized in that a tailstock is provided on which a receptacle for receiving and holding the second axial end of the tubular workpiece is provided.
- a basic idea of the invention can be seen in centering the axial end of the workpiece lying opposite the chuck on the headstock in a preferably sleeve-shaped or trough-shaped receptacle in order to ensure precise mounting of the workpiece.
- the receptacle encloses the axial end of the workpiece partially or completely and holds the workpiece precisely in the axis of the spinning mandrel.
- the receptacle has a second chuck for clamping the second axial end of the tubular workpiece.
- the workpiece is thus clamped in this case at both axial ends in each case a chuck and held reliably in this way.
- the second chuck is rotatably mounted on the tailstock and set in rotation by the workpiece.
- the chuck is thus preferably freely stored or storable, so that a rotation of the chuck can be generated by a rotation of the workpiece.
- the workpiece is reliably centered in the axis of the spinning mandrel by the second chuck. At the same time a free rotation of the clamped workpiece is ensured by the rotatable mounting of the second chuck.
- a rotary drive is provided for rotationally driving the second chuck.
- a torque into the second axial end of the workpiece torsion-free ends can be formed.
- the chuck can basically also be formed by a driver.
- the tailstock is mounted axially displaceably on the machine bed.
- the tailstock is stored with the chuck axially free on the machine bed or storable, so that by axial material flow of the workpiece axial displacement of the tailstock can be effected with the chuck.
- the tailstock can thus be moved freely preferably by an elongation of the workpiece.
- the deformation of the workpiece can be advantageously assisted by providing an axial drive for the axial movement of the tailstock together with the second chuck, in particular for pulling the workpiece.
- a mandrel for receiving deformed material of the tubular workpiece is provided on the tailstock.
- the mandrel may in particular be provided to catch and / or guide material which flows axially outward over the spinning mandrel.
- the additional collecting mandrel also increases the straightness of the workpiece to be formed.
- a further preferred embodiment of the invention is that the spinning mandrel has an end-side mandrel portion, which is rotatably mounted on a mandrel rod, and that an axially and / or radially movable support means is provided for supporting the mandrel rod.
- the mandrel bar can in particular non-rotating, so rotationally fixed, be mounted on the headstock.
- the deformation of the workpiece is preferably carried out in the region of the rotatably mounted on the mandrel rod end-side mandrel portion, which forms the actual forming mandrel.
- the workpiece can be moved in the axial direction relative to the forming mandrel to be formed between forming mandrel and forming roller.
- the forming mandrel that is to say the end-side mandrel section, in this case preferably does not correspond to the internal shape of the workpiece to be reshaped. Rather, the inner shape of the workpiece is determined in each case by the relative position of forming mandrel and forming roller to each other.
- the workpiece can be moved in the axial direction with respect to an axially fixed mandrel and an axially fixed forming roller.
- the mandrel bar can have a large axial length in comparison to the actual mandrel, that is to say the end-side mandrel section.
- the supporting device can preferably be moved in the radial direction.
- the radial movability also allows adaptation to different outer diameters of the workpiece section to be supported.
- the axial movability allows reliable support of the mandrel bar and / or the workpiece during the forming process when the mandrel bar is moved axially to the machine bed and / or headstock during forming.
- the support means preferably comprises a plurality of rotatably mounted support rollers to support a rotating workpiece or a rotating mandrel bar.
- a guide device for axially guiding a region of the tubular workpiece.
- the guide device is preferably arranged immediately in front of the forming roller, in particular in a still unshaped area of the workpiece.
- the guide device is preferably configured to hold the workpiece centrally in the axis of rotation of the spinning mandrel.
- the guide device supports the straightness of the finished part, in particular during a forming by means of only one forming roller.
- a particularly reliable centering of the workpiece can be achieved in that the guide means the tubular workpiece annularly or ringweeg- ment enclosing at least partially.
- the particular sleeve or trough-shaped guide device supports the workpiece from the outside and guides it in the axial direction.
- the guide device is preferably arranged non-rotating on the machine bed. The workpiece slides along the guide means.
- the guide device is designed to guide a rotating workpiece.
- the guide device can for this purpose have a sliding surface or a rotatably mounted guide sleeve.
- the guide device has rotatable or non-rotatably mounted sliding and / or guide jaws. These support the workpiece from the outside and allow reliable centering and guiding a rotating workpiece.
- the invention relates to a method and a device in which at least one tool mandrel axially as a function of the radial delivery of at least one Pulling or spinning roller is moved so that between the pressure roller and mandrel different gap dimensions or wall thicknesses can be created depending on the diameter.
- the offset of at least one pressure roller at an angle of 0-15 °, combined with the inclination of the axis of rotation of at least one forming roller relative to the axis of rotation of the workpiece or the mandrel depending on the material, workpiece feed and speed allows a higher diameter and wall thickness reduction and reduction the forming forces or services.
- each working radius corresponds optimally to the material flow in accordance with its rolling circumferential speed.
- rollers can be used, which are brought into engagement one after the other.
- these rollers may be identical in their axial position.
- an axial and radial offset between the successively engaging working radii or forming surfaces of the pressure roller is particularly advantageous for large forming capacities. It is particularly advantageous that the material flow or the rising material counteracts between the Umformradien the rollers of a polygonal design of the material under the forming rollers and thus the material is protected. Consequently, larger degrees of deformation can be achieved.
- each working radius of the pressure roller is actively driven in a ratio to the peripheral speed of the workpiece, so that the can be significantly reduced via the component or the mandrel to be initiated torque requirement.
- the small diameter at the large workpiece diameter can roll at a significantly higher speed than the large roller diameter at the smaller workpiece diameter, so that different relative feed rates in the material flow result from the identical skewed position of the rollers, which consequently introduce large pressure forces into the material or high frictional forces on the component exercise.
- the high frictional forces and the resulting higher forming temperatures have a particularly advantageous effect on some materials, such as aluminum alloys, EN-AW 6060, so that significantly higher forming rates are possible with significantly lower forming forces.
- a particularly fine-grained microstructure is achieved by the frictional forces, the large reductions and the high forming speed, which allows significantly higher degrees of deformation in the course of forming.
- the inclination of the roll axis is preferably in the range of minus 60 degrees to plus 45 degrees, depending on the angle of the dome and execution of the forming roller or inlet angle and outlet angle of the pressure roller.
- an angle of minus 15 degrees has proven to be particularly advantageous because the high feed forces can thus be optimally introduced into the storage and the rolling behavior of the forming roller and the flow behavior of the material are favored.
- the tailstock can perform different functions. a) The tailstock is equipped with a chuck which receives the free end of the workpiece to be formed and holds during the forming process. The chuck is rotated by the workpiece during the forming process. The axial material flow during the rolling process ensures axial displacement of the chuck with tailstock. b) However, it is particularly advantageous to support the axial material flow of the workpiece with a tensile force, by means of a chuck with a drawing tailstock.
- the material undergoes, in addition to the compressive forces, tensile forces which, on the one hand, facilitate the material flow and, on the other hand, significantly improve the straightness of the workpieces, in particular for small diameters and high diameter reductions, between the pressure roller and mandrel.
- This can be a subsequent straightening long workpieces, such as street lamp poles omitted.
- the tailstock can be moved away as well as force-controlled with constant or variable force.
- the tailstock may also be equipped with a second mandrel which catches and / or guides the material formed over the first mandrel. This also significantly improves the straightness of the workpieces.
- the tailstock can be designed in a special shape, so that the torque on the component to be formed from both ends of the workpiece by chuck or driver or driver toothing force or positively introduced. This allows torsion-free ends during tube forming. This is particularly advantageous for forming welded tubes where the welds at the ends must have a certain position relative to each other, such as semi-finished products for subsequent hydro and / or flexural deformation of symmetrically torsionally loaded components.
- a particularly advantageous embodiment of the tailstock allows the compensation of material extension due to different wall thicknesses in the starting material by the delivery of the rollers and / or the dome in the process of the machine control, so that a uniform final length of the finished product is achieved.
- the tailstock can be additionally supported by one of the Lynetten for stabilization against vibration.
- a centric guidance of the raw material is preferably used immediately before the forming zone.
- the finished part can not be pushed substantially radially out of the center of the machine, despite the imbalance of forces between the forming rollers.
- the workpiece is guided from the outside by a supporting and / or as fully as possible enclosing device in the axial direction.
- the guide also allows the rotation of the workpiece.
- a better embodiment variant can be designed to be divisible and / or displaceable so that the chuck of the main spindle unit takes over the guidance of the raw material until immediately before the forming rolls or forming zone, respectively, thus enabling a more optimal use of material.
- a rotatably mounted support means may be provided or the workpiece over partially arranged support and guide pads are guided centrally.
- a centrally mounted jaw chuck with sliding and guide jaws support and guide the workpiece in rotation from the outside.
- a preferred embodiment of the tube diameter-dependent change parts allows additional cooling or lubrication to reduce wear.
- a guide material preferably wear, heat and emulsion resistant materials are used, which are soft enough not to cause surface damage to the raw material. 4.
- Lynetten and support units are used on the machine in front of and behind the forming rollers.

- flow measuring devices can be installed in the machine, which allow a simple flow rate control. This can preferably be done manually, but also automated.
- the consistency of the cooling lubricant or coolant can also be measured. An impermissible deviation of the cooling lubricant in its consistency is displayed and / or automatically corrected. Due to the high forming capacity, emulsion systems with high filter performance are used by belt filters and / or magnetic separators. The emulsion is supplied via nozzles, which preferably ensure a particularly high and / or low heat dissipation.
- the machine is equipped with an automatic parts feeder and divider. This can preferably be automatically set to the appropriate workpiece dimensions or manually converted with little effort diameter-related.
- the loading and unloading of the workpieces is preferably carried out on different sides of the machine and behind the processing unit or forming zone.
- several tubes are simultaneously fed to the supply of the loading device via a slope or placed. About a singling a blank of the machine can be supplied in each case.
- the workpieces On the unloading side, the workpieces can exit via a slope or forwarded for subsequent processing or collected for further transport.
- the mandrel rod is used to extend the mandrel and must be performed depending on the length of the maximum reshaped blank.
- the mandrel bar is preferably designed in such a way that it is possible to support both the mandrel and the mandrel with raw material so as to ensure optimal support during loading and unloading and forming, even at higher speeds.
- the mandrel can be composed of several individual shorter sections to reduce the manufacturing costs. In order to keep the torsional forces, buckling forces and vibrations of the mandrel as small as possible, it is particularly advantageous to use the bearing of the dome directly between the mandrel and mandrel and not to let the mandrel rotate.
- a fast as possible changeable mandrel is attached on the mandrel.
- the storage for receiving the rotation of the dome or the forces can be done both at the beginning and at the end of the mandrel.
- Depending on the inner diameter of the blank preferably partially acting support rings can be mounted on the mandrel, which support the mandrel on the inner diameter of the blank and / or on the support rollers of Lynetten and thus center the mandrel or prevent buckling.
- a further preferred embodiment provides that these rings are divided, are rotatably mounted and are arranged axially in the position of the support rollers of the respective Lynetten.
- the mandrel bar is preferably designed as a hollow body, so that piping and / or hoses for the required media can be installed in the cavity.
- the drive unit can still provide a significantly higher torque available.
- the gear reduction is preferably carried out by a low-cost belt drive and / or gear set, such as low-backlash planetary gear.
- the use of air-cooled or water-cooled engines is advantageous.
