Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model discloses a rolling head, belonging to the technical field of textured rolling heads, specifically relating to a textured rolling head. Background Technology
[0002] Industrial manufacturing: In the industrial field, knurling is widely used on the handles or other working surfaces of metal products, mainly for anti-slip purposes. For example, knurling technology on security doors can improve the performance and aesthetics of the product.
[0003] Packaging Printing: Anilox rollers have become one of the main printing methods in flexographic printing, especially in packaging printing. The development trend of anilox roller technology indicates its significant role in improving print quality and efficiency.
[0004] Special applications: In some special applications, such as the pressing surface of a sewing machine presser foot, the textured rolling device can ensure that the pressing surface of the sewing machine presser foot is supported horizontally and achieve precise pattern processing through the rolling component.
[0005] Metal Forming
[0006] Roll forming is a process that uses plastic deformation to create a textured surface (such as cross patterns or diamond patterns), which is a chip-free process that improves surface properties.
[0007] Surface Engineering
[0008] It is used to improve the wear resistance, lubricity, fatigue resistance, or decorative properties of workpiece surfaces and belongs to functional surface treatment technology.
[0009] Machining Tools
[0010] It is usually used as an accessory for lathes, rolling equipment or special machine tools, and is closely integrated with cold working technology.
[0011] A knurling tool is a machining tool used to roll regular knurled textures (such as diamond patterns, straight lines, and diagonal lines) onto metal surfaces. It is widely used in machinery manufacturing, automotive, aerospace, and other fields. Its background technology mainly involves the limitations of traditional machining methods, the evolution of knurling processes, and modern manufacturing...
[0012] The need for technology.
[0013] Disadvantages: High material requirements: The knurling process has specific requirements for the plasticity and hardness of the workpiece material, and is not suitable for materials with excessively high or low hardness or poor plasticity. For example, materials with excessively high hardness may not be able to form a knurling pattern or may cause rapid wear of the knurling wheel. Strict control of initial blank size: Before knurling, the blank size must be accurate and consistent. Otherwise, the size may be too large, leading to excessive pressure on the knurling wheel and equipment damage, or too small, preventing the formation of a complete knurling pattern. Equipment investment and mold costs: Knurling equipment and its matching knurling wheel molds are usually more expensive than ordinary cutting machine tools, especially when customizing molds of special specifications, resulting in higher initial investment costs. Difficulty in process adjustment: Once the knurling parameters are determined, changing the knurling size or type often requires replacing the mold and readjusting the process parameters, which increases the challenge to production flexibility. Quality control challenges: During the knurling process, improper operation or poor equipment condition can easily lead to defects such as inaccurate knurling shape, increased knurling root diameter, and distorted knurling tooth profile. These issues require precise quality control methods for detection and prevention. Not suitable for complex or non-standard knurling patterns: For non-standard pitches, large diameter changes, special shapes, or other non-standard knurling patterns, the application of the knurling process is limited due to the lack of readily available knurling wheel molds.
