Kinematics of roller burnishing process
-
The workpiece, the tool or both rotate during roller burnishing.
-
During roller burnishing with multi-roller tools, a roll-off process results with kinematics similar to those of a planetary gear.
-
In the process, the taper (1) is permanently connected to the tool holding fixture (4) and the cage (3) with the rollers with rotating mountings (2) can be freely rotated.
- The contact force for forming the material is applied by the taper, which supports the rollers.
The rolling diameter is adjusted by axially shifting the taper relative to the roller.
