Abstract: An adjusting system for adjusting the guide play of a sliding guide for movable parts of a press has at least one guide element (1), which comprises at least one sliding block (9), which can be moved transversely to the direction of movement of the part of the press to be guided, at least one adjusting wedge (5) and at least one guide wedge (8), the movement of which adjusting wedge and guide wedge relative to each other causes the sliding block (9) to be shifted perpendicularly to the direction of movement of the movable part. The adjusting system is characterized in that the adjusting wedge (5) is continuously adjustable by means of at least one spindle drive. The disclosure further relates to a method for adjusting the position of at least one sliding block of its sliding guide on a press having such an adjusting system.

Abstract: A method and a vacuum-coating system (10) for coating a strip-shaped material (11), in particular made of metal, are disclosed. Thereby, the strip-shaped material (11) is moved over a conveying section (12) in a transport direction (T) and vacuum-coated within a coating chamber (14) in which a vacuum is applied. When viewed in the transport direction (T) of the strip-shaped material (11), at least one trimming shear (38) is arranged upstream of the coating chamber (14), with which the strip-shaped material (11) is trimmed at at least one strip edge, preferably at both strip edges, in order to produce a constant width for the strip-shaped material (11) over its longitudinal extension.

Abstract: A device and a method for rolling a metal strip. A distance of the upper/lower backup roll at at least one point thereof from a predetermined upper/lower reference point is measured by an upper/lower sensor and the measured values of the sensors are sent to a control device. A strain of the roll stand is calculated using a mathematical model, taking into account the rolling force generated. By the control device, an absolute value of the roll gap and thus the resulting thickness of the rolling stock is determined by the control device on the basis of the measured positions of the backup rolls and the calculated strain of the roll stand.

Abstract: A drawing system and a method for automatically operating a drawing system. At least one quality-relevant feature of a drawn product, selected from a group of features including the straightness of the drawn product, the length of the drawn product, the diameter and/or at least a thickness of the drawn product, the roundness of the drawn product, and the surface quality of the drawn product, is measured by at least one quality sensor, and the obtained measurement value is processed in at least one control circuit which acts on at least one quality-relevant manipulated variable of the drawing system or parts of the drawing system via at least one controller. At least one reference variable for at least one quality-relevant feature of a specific drawn product is processed in a process controller.

Abstract: A rolling mill for rolling metal products, comprising two roller stands with a stand cross-member. A roller is rotatably mounted in the roller stands. The roller is operatively connected to a balancing cross-member, and at least one hydraulic piston-cylinder system is arranged in the stand cross-member, with which a tensile force can be generated between the stand cross-member and the balancing cross-member by the hydraulic piston-cylinder system. In order to prevent leakages in particular in the event of tall mill ascending paths, the piston-cylinder system has a cylinder housing with an upper axial end and a lower axial end. A piston is movably arranged in the cylinder housing, and the piston protrudes beyond the cylinder housing both at the upper axial end as well as at the lower axial end in each operating state.

Abstract: A method for producing a thread on at least one end of at least one metal tube (3) by machining the metal tube (3) in at least one CNC-controlled machine tool (2) comprises an optical measurement of the thread during the thread-cutting process and/or following the thread-cutting process, and the electronic detection and evaluation of the measurement data of the thread profile and/or of a sealing lip (6) of the thread, and the derivation of control commands for controlling the machine tool (2) from the measurement data with use of at least one closed-loop control unit coupled to the machine tool (2). A corresponding thread-cutting facility is also disclosed.

Abstract: A rolling device has an upper and a lower work roll and at least one upper and one lower backup roll. The work rolls and the backup rolls are supported on a common rolling mill stand. The work rolls can be adjusted relative to each other in order to adjust a specified rolling gap. Each of the work rolls is operatively connected to at least one bending device. At least one first bending device is paired with die upper work roll, and at least one second bending device is paired with the lower work roll. The second bending device comprises bending cylinders which are arranged in a vertically fixed manner. The upper work roll can be readjusted or carried by the first bending device, thereby vertically adjusting die height of the rolling gap. The first bending device comprises bending arms that interact with bending cylinders arranged in a stationary manner.
