Abstract

A method for profiling a profile body by cold forming a workpiece having a longitudinal axis and a cylindrical outer surface extended along the longitudinal axis. The workpiece carries out a rotation movement about the longitudinal axis and is machined by a tool in a multitude of successively executed reshaping engagements. The tool is held by a tool holder, to be rotatable about a tool axis. The tool holder is mounted in an orbiting body to be rotatable about a rotation axis, is driven into a rotation movement about its rotation axis, and is driven into an orbiting movement by the orbiting body. Rotation movement of the workpiece is synchronised with orbiting movement of the tool holder and rotation movement of the tool holder is synchronised with orbiting movement of the tool holder. The tool axis is different from the rotation axis.

Abstract

With the method for manufacturing a composite brake disc, which includes a brake disc chamber and a friction ring having an inner profiling, a brake disc chamber blank is introduced into the friction ring. The brake disc chamber blank is then formed into the inner profiling via at least one embossing tool. A composite brake disc permitting a good torque transmission between the friction ring and the brake disc chamber can be manufactured in a cold-forming manner in this way. The forming-in can take place in a hammering manner, in particular by successively implementing a plurality of embossing steps in the region of different profile gaps of the inner profiling. Axial stops can also be simultaneously produced on forming-in. The axial stops serve to stop the brake disc chamber and the friction ring (3) are prevented from axially sliding apart.

Abstract

The device for punching or embossing hollow cylindrical workpieces (1), having a punch (2) and a die (3) which can, so as to interact with one another in an axis of action (W), be adjusted radially towards the inner or outer surface of the workpiece (1) into predetermined positions with respect to the vertical axis (V) of the workpiece (1), has, in one embodiment, a common guide body (6) in which both guide means (5; 11), which are coupled to the punch (2) and die (3) respectively, are arranged so as to be movable parallel to one another and to the axis of action (W). Here, the guide means (5; 11) each have a preferably electronically controllable drive means (7; 12) which is connected in a form-fitting manner to the guide body (6) and is movable with respect to the guide body (6) in the event of activation. It is thereby possible to control the movements of the punch (2) and die (3) individually in a very precise and fast manner, and to permit, in a very flexible manner, practically any desired movement profile in order to carry out a predetermined punching or embossing machining process of the workpiece (1). By means of the form-fitting connection of the drive means (7; 12) to the guide body (6), a good transmission of force is permitted even for very high forces, as can occur during the punching or embossing process, even during very small stroke movements.

Abstract

A method and device are disclosed for producing tubes that are at least partially profiled on their interior and preferably on their exterior from a hollow cylindrical blank (3), using a mechanical cold forming method, wherein the end of the blank (3) that is not to be machined (3′) is fed to a clamping device (10). The blank (3) is then secured in the clamping device (10) and a mandrel (2) is subsequently inserted into the end of region (3) of the blank (3) that is to be machined. A lance (8) is guided in the mandrel so that it can be coaxially displaced in a longitudinal direction and the free end of the lance (8′) can be introduced into the clamping device (10). The tip (8′) of the lance (8) is then brought into a positive fit with the clamping device (10) in the axial direction of the blank (3) and the mandrel (2), together with the clamping device (10) and the blank (3) is guided axially through a fixed machining point (6). Radial exterior machining of the surface of the blank (3) along the section that is to be machined (3′) takes place at the machining point (6), to create the interior and exterior profiling of the blank (3). During the process, the mandrel (2) is preferably rotated about its axis in an intermittent manner.

Abstract

A device and method for manufacture of workpieces having defined profiling. A device includes an axially moveable workpiece holder and at least one forming tool. There is a first drive structured and arranged to intermittently rotate the workpiece holder about a longitudinal axis of a workpiece held in the workpiece holder, and a second drive, separate from the first drive, structured and arranged to rotate the at least one forming tool to act periodically on the workpiece. The device also includes an electronic control operably connected to the first drive and the second drive, which controls intermittent rotational movement of the workpiece holder based upon the second drive. The at least one forming tool includes profiled wheels or rollers that are driven to continually rotate along a circular orbit that is oriented parallel or obliquely to the longitudinal axis of the workpiece.

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for cold-form profiling cylindrical, thin-walled hollow parts (1), comprising profiles (4) which extend in an essentially parallel manner in relation to the longitudinal axis (A) of the hollow part (1). At least one profiling tool (5) engages in a strike-like hammering manner with the outside of the hollow part (1) in a radial manner in relation to the longitudinal axis (A) of the hollow part (1). The profiling tool (5) engages, respectively, in an essentially vertical and oscillating manner on the surface of the hollow part (1). Then, the profiling tool (5) is displaced in an axial manner in relation to the hollow part (1) at a constant radial adjusting depth until the desired profile length is obtained.
