High-efficiency ring rolling equipment for seamless forged rings

Ring Rolling Machine

Our ring rolling machines are designed for producing flanges, bearing rings, gear blanks, wheel hubs and other seamless ring forgings with stable performance, high productivity and reliable forming accuracy.

Ring Rolling Machine for Forged Ring Production

A ring rolling machine is used to expand and form heated ring blanks into accurate seamless ring forgings. It reduces wall thickness, increases outside diameter and improves ring shape through controlled rolling between the main rolling wheel, mandrel and supporting components.

 

This machine is suitable for manufacturers producing forged rings for machinery, automotive, railway, shipbuilding, petrochemical, aerospace, energy and general engineering industries. It is commonly used for flanges, bearing outer rings, gear blanks, sleeves, wheel hubs and wind power components.

 

For buyers looking for a reliable ring rolling solution, we can support machine selection according to required outside diameter, roller width, productivity, motor power, ring material and production layout.

Process Flow

1. Billet Heating

The steel or alloy blank is heated to the required forging temperature before ring rolling begins.

2. Piercing or Preforming

The heated blank is pierced or preformed into a ring-shaped blank suitable for rolling.

3. Ring Positioning

The ring blank is placed between the rolling wheel, mandrel and guide rollers for controlled forming.

4. Diameter Expansion

The rolling wheel and mandrel reduce wall thickness while expanding the outside diameter of the ring.

5. Size Control

The ring is controlled during rolling to achieve the required diameter, width and dimensional tolerance.

6. Finished Ring Handling

After rolling, the forged ring is removed for cooling, heat treatment, inspection or machining.
