The roll is mainly composed of roll body, roll neck and shaft head.
The roll body is the middle part of the roll which is actually involved in rolling metal.
It has a smooth cylindrical or grooved surface.
The roll neck is installed in the bearing and the rolling force is transmitted to the frame through the bearing housing and the press-down device.
The shaft head of the transmission end is connected with the gear base through the connecting shaft, and the rotation moment of the motor is transferred to the roll.
