Roll Fluting / Grooving Machine  

This fluting machine serves to flute blunt chilled cast iron rolls (mill rolls), but it also fulfills the requirement of other types of industries where chilled rolls are employed for similar purposes. For example: fluting/corrugation of rolls used in flour mills, feed mills, oil seed crushing etc.

Capacity:  
  • Spiral cutting up to 20%. Left and right spiral can be cut.
  • Number of flutes up to 1200 on circumference.

 
Features:  
  • Extra heavy duty cast iron bed forms a rigid base where the machine table travels on Prismatic and Flat guides.
  • Main table movement with the roll is hydraulic.
  • Fluting head is mounted on machine base.
  • Easy positioning of fluting head.
  • Complete with fluting tool holder.
  • Forward and reverse movement of the fluting tool is hydraulic and linked to the forward and reverse movement main roll table.
  • The fluting control is carried out by driving head and indexing gears.
  • The roll spiral and indexing is automatically driven by the carriage  movement and ratchet mechanism.
  • Automatic Forced lubrication system with timer ensures perfect lubrication of all moving parts and guides.
  • Rolls support universal type with tail center and steadies.
  • Time taken to flute the rolls is reduced to more than 75% due to rapid reverse movement of main table.
  • Equipped with all necessary motors and electric panels.

 

Advantages:

 

 
  1. Vibration free travel of the table even at the moment of reversal.
  2. Variable speeds of forward and reverse motions of table are achievable due to hydraulic controls.
  3. Forced Lubrication of all moving parts fitted with automatic timer pump.
  4. Ease of operation by the operator control. Accident proof owing to the simple and robust design.
  5. Time taken to flute the rolls is reduced to more than 75% due to rapid reverse movement of main table.
