Roller former RF50
The RF50 rolling machine – RollierFormer – is particularly suitable for:
- Rolling sleeves with cables or hoses
- Rolling housings with connectors
- Rolling hoses and pipes
- Rolling sensors with cables
Versatile rolling machine for high-precision and tight connections at Ø 10-50 mm.
With the rolling machine, you can achieve a form-fitting connection, among other things, for better strain relief or tightness
For processors of rotationally symmetrical components, the Rollierformer RF50 represents a consistent further development of existing systems for rolling pipes, pipe ends, sleeves, housings, fittings and many other applications.
A typical application, for example, is to mechanically secure connecting cables in sensor sleeves against being pulled out and at the same time seal them (IP67 possible). In addition, connectors can be rolled into sensor housings and much more using this method. Wall thicknesses from 0.2 mm up to approx. 2.0 mm with a diameter of 10 to 50 mm are possible.

Machine structure
The rolling machine is very easy to operate. The workpiece to be formed is inserted into the machining opening and usually held in place by means of a collet. A major advantage over other systems is that the component stands still while the tools roll around the axis of the workpiece. The corresponding parameters for machining can be stored and managed in the machine control. The user interface allows simple, logical operation. All functionally important processes are electronically monitored and the data is recorded in the control system. This ensures a high level of process reliability and reproducibility.
- Basic module for holding all functional modules consisting of: Basic console with holder for 2 servo motors, ball screw and main spindle
- Rolling head with 3 rolling roll holders with product-specific rolling rolls. W > 0.5 mm, ø > 8 mm
- Protective housing with light curtain
- Emergency stop stops all movements immediately
- Siemens S7 CPU with operator panel Siemens TP700 comfort; S7 and TIA-Portal V13
- Data records can be selected via the operator panel (optionally via barcode scanner)
- Database for product-specific parameters
- Three access levels for machine control (operator, service and administrator)
- Language freely selectable, standard in German and English, other languages at an additional cost
- Switch cabinet mounted in the frame
- Acceptance of all machine components
- Steel frame welded and coated with 4 rotating rollers, 2 with locking brake
- Optional made of aluminum system profile
- Documentation, hazard analysis, CE mark
Optional components / attachments
The standard RollierFormer RF50 can be equipped with various optional attachments and functions. This makes it possible, for example, to expand the machine into a semi-automatic rolling machine with process monitoring.
- Manually with longitudinal slide for holding the clamping module. Drive by means of crank and trapezoidal thread spindle. Positioning via counting module
- A standard collet is used to clamp the workpiece
- Collet geometry can be adapted to the workpiece

- Motorized with longitudinal slide for holding the clamping module. Drive by means of servo motor and trapezoidal thread spindle
- A standard collet is used to clamp the workpiece
- Collet geometry can be adapted to the workpiece
- can be programmed for up to three rolling positions per rolling process to roll the grooves into the workpiece

- Table top mounted on height-adjustable columns
- Height adjustability up to 300mm
- 4 rotating castors, 2 with locking brake

- Adaptation of the machine according to customer requirements.
- Integration of the machine as a sub-station in complete systems possible
- Further alternatives are conceivable
