Plate Roll Features

Pre-bending to the full rated capacity plate is accomplished with sufficient power in each side roll hydraulic cylinder. Many competitors are not capable of pre-bending to their maximum rated rolling capacity.

Rolls are easily adjusted on either end with Bertsch’s unique electronic leveling system. Because most competitors allow adjustment on one end only, roll corrections are more difficult.

Spherical roller bearings increase drive’s efficiency by reducing friction.

Operator controls are located on moveable pendant or console for ease of use.

Reduce potential leaks by eliminating connections and utilizing hard tubing throughout the machine, limiting the use of hoses only to areas requiring a flexible connection. Most competitors use hose connections exclusively, creating the potential for more leaks.

Variable speed differential achieved by the Independently Driven Top and Bottom Rolls, allowing them to seek their own speed when driving on the inner and outer radius. Some competitors offer inferior gear-to-gear or chain drive systems, limiting them to fixed speed differentials.

Four digital readouts, one for each side roll and two for pinch roll.

Pressure gauges monitor pinch pressure on both ends of the machine to monitor part squareness.

Hydraulic cylinder actuates the automatic self-locking hinge.

Customized crowned roll forgings adaptable to your specific rolling needs.

Operator safety ensured by electrical disconnect with lock-out feature, e-stop button located on control, and a trip switch located along both sides of the machine.
