Ring-rolling mill and method for operating same

A ring-rolling mill (1) includes a machine table (2) for accommodating the rolled material (3) and an axial stand (4) that supports at least one axial roll, preferably two axial rolls (5, 6), for rolling the end faces (7, 8) of the rolled material (3). The ring-rolling mill and a method for operation thereof facilitate rapid product change without elaborate setting-up or without conversion of the rolling mill. For that purpose at least one pressure roll, preferably two pressure rolls (9, 10), for rolling the outer circumference (11) of the rolled material (3) is further arranged on the axial stand (4). The at least one pressure roll (9, 10) is arranged so as to be translationally displaceable relative to the axial stand (4).
