Abstract (en)

[origin: WO8806931A1] A process for forging a one piece track roller rim (31) comprising the steps of placing a hot metal billet (27) on a supporting block (1); closing a die (4) having two complementary half-shells (4a, 4b) which, when engaging each other, define a forging cavity (14) the inner shape of which corresponds to the outer surface of the track roller rim (31) to be formed; moving a hoop (7) to surround and lock the two half-shells (4a, 4b) closed; moving a cylindrical punch (8) into the forging cavity (14) to form an axial opening (29) in the billet (27) and forging the billet material into the inner shape of the forging cavity (14); removing the cylindrical punch (8) from the forged track roller rim (31); removing the track roller rim (31) from the supporting block (1). A machine is also provided to carry out the process.
