Anti-Drift Turning Roll
Koike Aronson, Inc./Ran-
some, Arcade, NY, a manu-
facturer of cutting and posi-
tioning equipment for the
metalworking industry, introduces
the Anti-Drift Turning Roll, which
uses Koike’s patent-pending eccen-
tric axle design to minimize vessel drift.
The turning roll allows for a lower vessel center-
line height and holds the vessel on rolls axially in posi-
tion within + 0.04 in. It automatically compensates for vessel irregularities and roll misalignment, making corrections quickly and with little force. The machine’s sim- ple, low-maintenance design eliminates unreliable moving bases and vertically moving wheels.
