What is a Housing Less Mill Stand?
In a traditional rolling mill stand, a bulky housing encloses the roll chocks, bearings and adjustment mechanisms. While functional, this housing often limits access, increases the machine’s footprint, and slows down roll changes during production.
A Housing Less Mill Stand eliminates this traditional housing, using a rigid, compact frame that directly supports the roll chocks. This design maintains high rigidity under rolling loads while making the equipment far easier to operate, maintain, and integrate into high-speed rolling lines.
