A roller drill for removing material, such as in particular rock, minerals or the like, according to the undercutting principle, comprising a cutting face which is formed concentrically around a central axis and widens conically toward an end face of the roller drill, and includes a supporting body which is arranged on the inner side of the cutting face and extends up to the end face of the tool. In order to provide a roller drill or a roller bit of which the tool life or service life is improved compared with the prior art, the cutting face is made of a harder material than the supporting body and the supporting body forms an annular web which is conical at least at an outer circumferential wall and which defines with its inner circumferential wall a free space at the end face of the tool. The tool can resharpen itself automatically due to the free space and the dissimilar material combination.

Roller drill or roller bit

A combination of conventional or superimposed percussive slot-cutting tools for creating slots and grooves, with eccentric, superimposed percussive, counterbalanced planar milling tools for excavating floors, walls, rocks, minerals and the like.

Process for producing slots, grooves, and planar excavations

An apparatus for treating rock, minerals or similar materials includes at least two tool-bearing sleeves supported by bearings. The tool-bearing sleeves are arranged in eccentric relationship to a common drive shaft. The tool-bearing sleeves are counterbalanced with reference to respective counterweights.
