FAG back-up rollers are used in rolling mills and similar heavy-duty applications to provide support and guidance to the rolling process. They are typically used in conjunction with work rolls and are positioned behind them to help maintain proper alignment and prevent deflection during the rolling process. These back-up rollers play a crucial role in ensuring the quality and accuracy of the rolled product.
Here are some key features and functions of FAG back-up rollers:
High Load Capacity: Back-up rollers are designed to support high radial loads and withstand the extreme forces and pressures encountered in rolling mill applications. They are made of high-strength materials and undergo rigorous testing to ensure durability and reliability under heavy loads.
Precision Machining: FAG back-up rollers are precision-machined to tight tolerances to ensure proper alignment and smooth operation in rolling mill applications. This precision machining helps minimize deflection and ensures consistent product quality.
Sealing and Lubrication: Some FAG back-up rollers are equipped with sealing and lubrication systems to protect the bearings from contamination and ensure optimal performance and longevity. These sealing and lubrication systems help extend the service life of the back-up rollers and reduce maintenance requirements.
Variety of Designs: FAG offers a variety of back-up roller designs to suit different rolling mill applications and operating conditions. These include different sizes, configurations, and mounting options to accommodate various rolling processes and equipment configurations.
Custom Solutions: FAG can also provide custom back-up roller solutions tailored to specific customer requirements and application challenges. This customization may involve special designs, materials, coatings, or features to meet unique application needs and optimize performance in specific rolling mill applications.
Overall, FAG back-up rollers are essential components in rolling mill applications, providing support, guidance, and stability to the rolling process. Their high load capacity, precision machining, sealing and lubrication features, and customization options make them reliable and efficient solutions for ensuring the quality and accuracy of rolled products in heavy-duty industrial environments.
