Is It Better to Have Casting Iron Frame or A Welded Frame for Ring Rolling Machine?

27 Mar.,2025

Ring Rolling Machine frame produced by Wuxi Daqiao Bearing Machinery Co., Ltd is adopted to welded-forming by steel plate, structure is light with good rigidity.

 

Ring Rolling Machine is a metal processing equipment used for processing of workpieces such as cylinders, tapers, and spheres. It mainly changes the shape and size of the workpiece through pressing and rolling. It is one of the metal processing equipment with the highest processing accuracy at present, especially suitable for processing high-strength workpieces. Some ring rolling machine body are welded, some are casting frame, so what is the difference between casting frame and welded frame? What are the advantages of welded frame?

 

Steel plate welding has several advantages, including:

1.High strength: Welding forms a strong and rigid connection between steel plates, enabling the entire structure to withstand significant loads and stresses.

2.Good appearance: Welding can achieve seamless connection, so the appearance of welded steel plate structure is more beautiful without protruding bolts or connectors.

3.Good durability: Welded joints usually have high durability and can withstand repeated loads and vibrations for a long time and are not easy to loosen or break.

4.Ease replacement and maintenance.

5.After heat treatment and tempering, the stress is eliminated so that the machine body will not deform.

6.Steel plate welding can ensure a 35-year lifespan for mechanical equipment.

Cast steel as a manufacturing material, it has many advantages, but it also has some disadvantages, including:

1. Non-uniformity: The cooling rate of cast steel is relatively slow, which can easily lead to uneven structure within the casting. This can lead to defects such as pores, inclusions and oversized grains in the casting, reducing the strength and toughness of material.

2. Shrinkage defects: Cast steel will shrink during the cooling process, which may cause shrinkage defects in castings, such as hot cracks, shrinkage, and deformation. These defects may affect the dimensional accuracy and overall quality of casting.

3. Not suitable for high-temperature environments: Some cast steel alloys may suffer from problems such as creep and oxidation in high-temperature environments. This limits the use of cast steel in high-temperature applications.

4. It takes at least 2 years for castings to be basically stable, and it is best to be placed in summer and winter. Castings that have not undergone natural aging are unreliable.

 

D51 series tiled ring rolling machine is studied and developed by engineers of Wuxi Daqiao as per customers’ using practice and production experience for long time. It has taken up all kinds of rolling advantages both domestic and abroad adapted to modern production.
