Technology-Day at Profiroll

44 students of the 3rd and 5th semester of the Technical University Dresden had the opportunity to look behind the scenes at Profiroll during their excursion in faculty Manufacturing Technology.

Once in a year the students can see the production and development centre in Bad Duben.

In addition to professional lectures held by our Profiroll process engineers, the students attended in the following practical lessons:

  • Thread Rolling Machine PR50e PRS – Infeed rolling of stud bolts M52x5 for wind power mills
  • Profile Rolling Machine PR15 HP – Rolling of worms for automotive assemblies

  • 3D-CMM Zeiss Prismo for precise quality control

  • Ring Rolling Machine URWA 250 – manufacturing of bearing outer race

  • 2-Slide Rolling Machine 2-PR 40 CNC/AC – throughfeed rolling of ballscrews

  • Spline Rolling Machine Rollex L HP – Rolling of 4 splines on a camshaft

In the practical lessons not only machines have been presented but also special requirements of cold forming processes have been examined: check of material and input parameters as well as qualitative evaluation of the formed products.

Diplom-Ingenieur Florian Eichhoff, former participant of this excursion and now, Profiroll Specialist for Ball Screw Rolling is the proof that this event leads to benefits for both parties.
