Skew Rolling Technology
Inclined Roll Forming: Inclined rolls rotate and guide the heated bar forward while applying radial deformation.
Helical-Groove Forming: Specially designed grooves progressively shape the bar into spherical sections.
Continuous Rolling: Continuous bar feeding allows multiple grinding balls to be formed in a single rolling process.
Process Matching: Ball diameter, bar diameter, steel grade and rolling conditions are matched for stable forming.
How the Skew Rolling Mill Works
The production process consists of four main stages:
Round Steel Bar Feeding
Round steel bars are continuously fed according to the selected ball diameter and production configuration.
Induction Heating
The bar is heated to the required forming temperature before entering the rolling mill.
One-Pass Skew Rolling
The heated bar enters the inclined helical-groove rolls. The rolls rotate, advance and radially deform the material, progressively forming individual spherical sections.
Ball Discharge
The formed hot balls are discharged for subsequent cooling or heat treatment.
