Roll hemming method for hemming border area of metal sheet component, particularly outer lining part of motor vehicle, involves positioning crimping roller and supporting roller on roller carrier of hemming tool

摘要

The roll hemming method involves positioning a crimping roller (6) and a supporting roller (7) on a roller carrier (9) of a hemming tool (5). An angle (20) is adjusted between a crimping roller longitudinal rotary axis (17) and a supporting roller rotary axis (18). The crimping roller is pivoted around the crimping roller longitudinal rotary axis, where the support roller is pivoted around the supporting roller rotary axis. The hemming tool is adjusted in a hemming longitudinal direction relative to a hemming nest (8). An independent claim is also included for a roll hemming device for hemming a border area of a metal sheet component, particularly an outer lining part of a motor vehicle.
