SMS Meer GmbH, a company of the SMS
Group, Germany, is installing a sixth ERW
line for high precision automotive products.
The new plant, scheduled to go into
Plants for high precision
automotive products
operation in 2011 with an annual production
capacity of up to 20,000 tons, will provide
roundness and ovality tolerances similar to
drawn products. This is made possible by the
rigid and sturdy machine design with high
precision backlash-free roll adjustments.
The high rotation accuracy will be achieved
by patented roller bearings, with proven
clamping collar connection of shaft and
roll. The line uses special solutions by
use of patented side stands and precision
taper roller bearings associated with very
high manufacturing/fitting tolerances of the
individual parts and assemblies. The concept
of the line is completed by the reliable and
fast roll change in collaboration with the
SMS Meer CSS-Quicksetting system.
The production range consists of pipes
from a diameter of 10 to 40mm, with a wall
thickness up to 4mm and maximum yield
strength of 800N/mm². The pipes to be
produced will be used for technologically
demanding products for the automotive
industry, with round tube tolerance including
ovality of ±0.03mm.
