How to change diameter of rolled sheet
I have to bend roll a sheet into cylinder using rollers placed in shape
of pyramids. The diameter coming out is quite large so i want to decrease its diameter. How can i do it? I have to change the roller's or readust them or is there any ratio between the roller size and qutcoming diametet. |

On the roll bender I have the top, or middle, roller is on a threaded rod on each side. You tighten it down to roll a smaller diameter sheet. You get to the right rolled sheet diameter by trial and error. Karl |

I'ts a good idea to have a radius template bcause it's trial and error, at least it was way back when I used one. The edges at the seam will be flat for the distance it takes to engage the back roll. You have to preform the edges somehow. We used a break press or ran the material through the rolls from the backside for a few inches, again use your template. -- Randy Replogle My wife says I'm doing my Christian duty... annoying the hell out of her.
