Abstract
A planetary mill having two stationary backing bodies, located one above the other in chocks in a roll stand. Two synchronously rotary-driven cage rings are coaxially mounted on the backing bodies so as to be separated from one another. The case rings rotate in parallel planes of rotation, and respectively hold, in swing roll bearings, one end of work rolls and/or intermediate rolls arranged between the two cage rings. The rolls and the cage rings rotate together around the backing body. The rolls rest against roll-off surfaces in the area of the roll gap. The cage rings are turnable relative to one another in their planes of rotation, to permit setting of the desired rolling material profile without changing the position of the roll-off surfaces.
