2018 West Michigan Model 24 Spline Roller

The 2018 West Michigan Model 24 Spline Roller is a heavy production cold-rolling machine purpose-built for splining and thread forming, with a 24 inch rack size, 1.5 inch maximum OD, 5 inch maximum rack box depth, and a 5.5 inch opening that swallows long, large-diameter shaft work. Under-arm support with tailstock keeps work pieces stable through the full rolling cycle, the one-piece welded construction eliminates shimming for straightness, and the rack design runs various shaft lengths without inducing taper across the part. A 50 gallon hydraulic tank reservoir, an integrated coolant system, and a 25,000 pound machine weight give this roller the stiffness and capacity to run heavy production splining day in and day out.

Compared to older tie-bar style spline rollers that require fixtures and shimming for straightness, the West Michigan Model 24 cold-forms splines and threads without tie bars and holds tolerances through a one-piece welded frame, so setup time drops dramatically and the operator can move between different shaft lengths without re-shimming the machine. The under-arm tailstock support and dedicated hydraulic reservoir push this Model 24 well past where light-duty bench-style rollers can compete, making it a serious choice for shops producing splined shafts, threaded fasteners, and cold-formed gear shaft blanks at volume.
