4. icants Recommended coolants and lubricants are those which are also used for cutting operations i e solu tions with diluted ratio of 1 10 up to 1 20 perhaps with high pressure additives and thin cutting oils Possible errors to be made 1 Starting diameter selected too large or head setting was too small that means an overload is generated which in most cases may be seen at the thread end by building up a bead at the thread crests over approx the width of the rolls 2 Chamfering also at the undercut is not in line with the rolling instructions 3 Setting for length selected Incorrect or component length variating rolls are running against a shoulder 4 Jamming of the rolls or evidence of wear on the eccentric spindles caused be heavy dirt accumulated in the coolant 5 Unclean thread start and perhaps damage of the rolls caused by incorrect feed approach Damage on the Rolls or rolling of two start threads caused by incorrect assembly of the Rolls 7 Premature opening of the Rolling Head caused by wear on the Wedges for the Coupling 49 or the Dog Coupling 2 Wedges for the Coupling 49 can be used several times more by turning them around O Fig 1 Example of Assembly for Rolling Heads in FU design E Separate Parts to be assembled into groups fig 1 Apply ample grease to Ball Bearings to avoid drop out when putting into the Gear Ring fig 2 The gears on the Gear Sector then point to the c
