At Mankoo Machine Tools, we understand that every second of production downtime directly impacts output and profitability. That’s why we’ve developed the Stand Quick Change Device—a state-of-the-art system specifically engineered to minimize mill stoppage time, enhance worker safety, and maximize operational efficiency during roll and stand replacement.
Our Quick Change Device enables rapid, tool-free stand replacement without the need for cranes or heavy lifting equipment, thanks to its integrated rail-guided platform and precision locking mechanism. The system is fully automated, allowing operators to safely and swiftly disengage and replace rolling stands with minimal manual intervention, significantly reducing changeover time and improving workflow continuity.
Built with high-strength materials and smart hydraulic or electro-mechanical actuation systems, this solution offers repeatable positioning accuracy and excellent reliability even in demanding mill environments. It’s ideal for both horizontal and vertical stand configurations and can be custom-adapted to suit different mill layouts and product types.
In high-speed rolling mills where time is money, the Stand Quick Change Device delivers a competitive edge by supporting frequent size changes, multi-pass rolling, and shift-based production—ensuring your mill operates at peak productivity with reduced downtime and optimized throughput.
The system uses a hydraulically operated stand shifting mechanism that moves the mill stands from the bed plate onto a specially designed changing car. This eliminates the need for overhead cranes and significantly reduces manual intervention—ensuring a faster, safer operation.
Our system is capable of operating with two stands simultaneously, allowing the outgoing and incoming stands to be handled side-by-side. This drastically cuts transition time between rolling campaigns, keeping your mill running longer and more efficiently.
Equipped with locking pins and automatic centering guides, the system ensures accurate alignment of the stand with drive couplings and utilities during insertion. This results in quicker coupling engagement and reduced adjustment time.
Integrated hydraulic systems allow for swift, tool-free clamping and unclamping of the stand to the foundation base. This not only accelerates the process but also ensures consistent torque and reliable fastening every time.
Whether you’re operating Housingless, Cantilever, or Universal stands, the system can be customized to accommodate different sizes, weights, and configurations—making it ideal for new installations or retrofit upgrades.
This innovative design not only simplifies the mechanics of roll changes, but also enhances overall operational flow within the rolling line.
Our Stand Quick Change Device is tailored for high-speed, high-output mills where downtime is costly and precision is critical. By automating the roll change process, we help you streamline operations, reduce manpower dependency, and achieve rapid stand replacements with consistent alignment and minimal adjustment. This not only improves shift-to-shift productivity but also enhances overall equipment efficiency (OEE), ensuring that your rolling line runs smoother and longer without interruption. Designed for rugged mill environments, our system delivers unmatched reliability and repeatability, enabling you to focus on maximizing throughput while maintaining the highest standards of safety and quality.
These features collectively ensure that your cooling bed becomes a central intelligence hub for material movement, cooling, and discharge.
