Definitions

  • the invention relates to a roller tool for a machine tool for linear forming of a sheet metal.
  • the invention also relates to a roller tool system with such a roller tool and a method for linear forming of a sheet metal with a roller tool.
  • roller tool system for a machine tool for linear forming of a sheet metal which forms the basis for the preamble of claim 1.
  • Such roller tools are also known from U.S. 5,156,034 A , of the DE 10 2005 003 558 A1 , of the DE 10 2006 049 045 A1 , of the DE 20 2005 021 005 U1 , of the DE 10 2014 224 094 A1 and the US 2007/105488 A1 .
  • a roller tool is to be created which can be dimensioned compactly and is particularly robust and flexible in operation.
  • the roller tool should be designed to reliably ensure the processing of sheet metal with a particularly small sheet metal wall thickness or with a particularly large sheet metal wall thickness, even with high degrees of deformation.
  • the roller tool with the at least one roller body which can be rotationally driven by means of a ram of the machine tool via the rotational engagement of the tool head designed as a form-fitting profile, is particularly flexible different machine tools can be operated and can be driven in rotation via the ram in a reliable and low-wear manner.
  • the rotary engagement which is designed as a form-fit profile, ensures the transmission of particularly high torques as well as slip-free and thus precise control of the feed transmitted to the sheet metal via the at least one roller body.
  • the roller tool can thus be used in a machine turret of common machine tools for receiving different processing tools, in particular roller and punching tools.
  • the transfer of the rotary movement via the tool head which is to be robustly dimensioned for transferring the pressing force, also enables a particularly compact design of the roller tool. Due to the compact design of the roller tool, a larger number of machining tools can be arranged in the same space, as a result of which the machining performance of the machine tool can be increased. Due to the formation of a single mechanical interface between the machine tool and the roller tool for transmitting both the pressing force and the rotary movement in the form of the tool head, the roller tool can be exchanged particularly easily and quickly. The maintenance effort on the machine and tool side is particularly low.
  • the roller tool is particularly robust and can be operated safely. With the form-fitting connection between the ram and the tool head, it is particularly advantageous to take structural precautions which enable this connection to be released when predetermined torques are exceeded.

In particular, damage to the machine tool, for example due to the at least one roller body blocking, can also be avoided.
  • a maximum torque that can be transmitted via the safety clutch can preferably be set.
  • the safety clutch can have a clutch spring, for example.

  • the form-fit profile is particularly preferably designed as a single groove extending radially to the longitudinal axis of the tool.

  • the precise forming of the sheet can thus be carried out independently can be reliably guaranteed by the processing direction, in particular in the case of pulling and / or pushing processing.
  • the roller tool can be designed as a forming tool for forming the sheet metal and / or as a stamping tool for stamping the sheet metal and / or as a cutting tool for cutting the sheet metal.

  • the roller body 45 is driven in such a way that a circumferential rolling speed of the roller body 45 is smaller or greater than a relative speed of the roller tool system 13 in the area of the tool longitudinal axis 17 relative to the sheet 6 the relative speed between the metal sheet 6 and the roller tool system 13.
  • This enables particularly thick metal sheets 6, in particular with a sheet metal wall thickness t of more than 2.5 mm, can be reliably formed. Thin metal sheets 6 with a sheet metal wall thickness t of at most 0.5 mm can be formed reliably without creasing.
  • cooling lubricant is fed to the roller tool system 13 via the head bore 48.
  • lubricant is applied via the lubricant channel 49 and the counter-lubricant channel 58 between the roller shaft 43 and the roller sleeve 46, the secondary roller body 47 and the lower housing part 25 and between the counter-roller axle 53 and the counter-roller body 56, 57 and the forming roller 55.
  • the safety coupling 27 is shifted from the closed position into the open position.
  • the drive part 28 is rotatable relative to the driven part 29, the transmission of the rotary movement between the tool head 18 and the roller body 45 being interrupted.
  • the roller tool system 13 with the roller body 45 which can be rotated via the tool head 18 is compactly dimensioned, robust in operation and can be used particularly flexibly.
  • the roller tool system 13 enables the linear deformation of the sheet metal 6 along the straight and / or curved deformation path 60 in a flexible and reliable manner, in particular sheets 6 with a particularly small sheet metal wall thickness t of at most 0.5 mm and sheets 6 with a particularly large sheet metal wall thickness t of at least 2.5 mm can be deformed.
  • the roller tool system 13 can be used for forming the sheet metal 6 in any direction relative to the sheet metal clamping means 9, in particular in the direction of the sheet metal clamping means 9, without buckling or creasing of the sheet metal 6 occurring.
