Abstract

A rolling apparatus is proposed with four rolls arranged in the shape of a star whereby one drive unit each is assigned to the rolls and whereby an adjusting unit each precedes the rolls through which the rolls are arranged adjustably in a radial and an axial direction. The separate and comprehensive triggering of the individual rolls (3) always allows a symmetrical introduction of the rolling stock to and through the rolling apparatus.
