ROLLTECH

ROLLTECH from SMS group is a software package that measurably increases the profitability and product quality obtained from ring and wheel rolling machines. It takes all relevant stages of the production process into account and has the right interfaces for this. The first stage is a simulation of the production process. Where can material savings be made (allowances, tolerances, slug scrap, scale)? Which performance limits are holding back faster production? ROLLTECH has the answer to these questions. It helps users identify and eliminate bottlenecks in production.
The result: Enhanced performance in terms of cost efficiency and product quality and volume.

Easy assessment of product feasibility
Design process support through automatic provision of profile contour drawings for tooling
Comprehensive overview of existing primary materials for warehouse and saw shop
Full provision of process data for hot forming – from the furnace through to heat treatment
Automatic provision of all process parameters for machining of the workpiece
Latest data for entire system provided from a centralized data pool

ROLLTECH Rings
High cost effectiveness through optimal use of technology

The technological interdependencies and their impact on the product are very involved when manufacturing rings. Misjudgments during production planning and production itself can lead to instability of the product thus leading to economic disadvantages. In order to avoid this, SMS group offers a complete package that includes ROLLTECH Rings.
