When replacing, the support roll is placed on the receiving table. Then, the receiving table is lifted until the gap between the inner bearing ring and the roll journals is loosened. The bearings are fixed on the table's carriage. After that, the bearing mounting-disassembly tables are moved until the bearing housing with the bearing clears the support roll's journals. The support roll is then removed from the receiving table by a crane and sent for grinding.
The assembly process proceeds as follows: the lifting drive aligns the axis of the support roll and the bearings. The assembly of the bearings and the support roll is carried out by sliding the bearings onto the roll journals until they reach the stop.Load capacity of the stand – 15 tons (weight of one roll and two bearings).
