Exit table of a tube mill

Abstract

Exit table of a tube mill includes a stationary channel for placing the tube being rolled and drive rollers installed in its bottom slots. It also includes a device for clamping the tube during the rolling of the pilger head, which consists of a carriage on which two brake pads are mounted; these pads can move from two diametrically opposite sides perpendicular to the tube’s axis using two pneumatic cylinders. Each brake pad is supported by four horizontally positioned guides fixed to the carriage, which is mounted on two guides secured to the foundation slab via supports. The brake pads are pressed against the supports by springs.
