Abstract
The invention relates to a method for the better utilization of the working width of a profiling stone in the inner profiling of heat exchanger pipes. The press on width of the revolving roller bodies is substantially narrower than the profile width of the profiling stone so that in this area the profiling stone is worn out rapidly while the other area remains unworn since it is not utilized. In order to avoid this, the invention suggests that the press on rollers and the profiling stone is moved within the range of the working width of the profiling stone axially back and forth so that the entire profile range of the profiling stone can be utilized.
