A heavy-duty Blake and Johnson 5" x 8" 2-high rolling mill, well-suited for laboratory work, hot and cold rolling, light production, knife making and bladesmithing (Damascus billet reduction and forged stock flattening), precious metal processing, and research and development applications. The mill features 5" diameter x 8" face work rolls with an approximately 100,000 lb separating force, providing a rigid, robust design for a variety of metal rolling applications. Roll gap adjustment is controlled independently on each side through two handwheels, allowing precise control over reduction and roll parallelism.
This mill was previously configured for hot rolling applications, so the existing rolls may be manufactured from a heat-resistant tool steel suitable for elevated-temperature operation. However, the exact roll material has not been verified, and suitability for hot rolling would need to be confirmed.
Condition
This mill is offered in as-is, where-is condition. The existing 220V/3-phase electrical controls are included, but the mill does not currently have a drive motor. A suitable replacement motor will need to be supplied and installed before the mill can be returned to operation. The included controls may reduce the electrical work required compared to a machine supplied without controls, although their functionality and compatibility with a replacement motor would need to be verified.
With its heavy-duty construction, approximately 5,000 lb weight, and existing electrical controls, this mill offers a cost-effective starting point for customers looking to restore or customize a versatile 2-high rolling mill for their specific application.
