Abstract

Straightening apparatus includes opposed straightening rollers through which generally cylindrical elongated workpieces pass generally longitudinally. Opposite flat guide members extend between the rollers and have opposed front guide edges between which a workpiece is guided as it travels through the rollers. The side edges of the guide members extending generally perpendicular to the direction of workpiece travel are individually releasably clamped by clamping devices for providing adjustment of the guide members toward and away from a workpiece to facilitate initial adjustment and to renew the front guide edges as they become worn. Each individual clamping device is also independently adjustable in a direction generally perpendicular to the first adjustment direction for imparting curvature to the guide members extending between curved straightening rollers.
