Advanced Steel Tube Cold Rolling Mill Solutions
KWM Machinery’s Steel Tube Cold Rolling Mill delivers unmatched precision for manufacturing cold-rolled seamless tubes with wall thickness tolerances down to ±0.05mm. Engineered for aerospace-grade tubing, hydraulic cylinders, and bearing sleeves, our mills produce tubes compliant with DIN 2391, ASTM A519, and EN 10305-4 standards.
1. Features of cold rolling pilger mill
The cold rolling mill is the main forming tool for the cold processing of steel tubes. The outstanding advantages of cold rolling are strong wall reduction force, 75% ~ 85% wall reduction per pass and 65% diameter reduction. At the same time, the performance, dimension accuracy and surface accuracy of the supplied materials can be significantly improved.
2.Cold rolling process
Raw material — Acid cleaning — Cold rolling — Heat treatment — Finishing — Checking — Storing (aciding cleaning, cold rolling and heat treatment can repeated as need)
