Bump Rollers

Bump rollers are manufactured and used for splicing and/or joining two webs together.

Benefits: 

Used within the paper, film, foil, and plastic industries.

Best Used For: 

Bump Rollers

Calender Rollers

Calender rollers, which are usually configured in pairs, are used to gauge a web to a predetermined thickness by running the web through a controlled gap.

Benefits: 

Calender rollers are series of hard pressure rollers that are used on-line or off-line to form or smooth a sheet of material like paper or plastic film.

Best Used For: 

Calendar Rollers

Carbon Fiber Rollers

Rollers that are primarily used when both high strength and low weight are needed.  We also manufacture and coat carbon fiber unwind and rewind shafts and reel spools.

Benefits: 

Referred to as our Valcom product; unique in the industry with bonding techniques that enable us to be only supplier to provide hard facing and ceramic coatings to a ground finish on carbon fiber rolls!

Best Used For: 

Carbon fiber rolls.

Chevron or Herringbone Grooving

Spreader rollers grooving can take many forms including: herringbone pattern, chevron groove pattern, reverse taper configuration, and grooved rubber covers.

Benefits: 

Improved web handling; wrinkle release

Best Used For: 

Bowed roll and stretch roll applications.

Dancer Rollers

Dancer rollers are lightweight dead or live shaft idlers that sense changes in web tension. The lighter the weight, the more sensitive the rollers will be.

Benefits: 

Assists in tention control on a web processing machine improving web tracking and increasing machine speeds.

Best Used For: 

Controlling tension on a web.

Drive Rollers

Drive rollers drive opposing nip rollers, allowing substrates to move through the web’s path.

Benefits: 

Available in alloy steel, carbon steel, and stainless steel.

Best Used For: 

Drive Rollers

Foam Rollers

Foam rollers are manufactured from cellular material and used in a wide variety of applications and industries.

Benefits: 

The "soft" core is supported by "tough" shell for improved wear resistance.

Best Used For: 

Bump and splicing roll positions.

Gravure Rollers

Gravure rollers are engraved or coated with a porous surface to contain ink, adhesive, or liquid until its application.

Benefits: 

Liquid amounts depend on application.

Best Used For: 

Gravure Rollers

Laminating Rollers

Our laminating rollers are available in alloy steel, carbon steel, and stainless steel.

Benefits: 

part of manufacturing processes to permanently assemble objects

Best Used For: 

used within the paper, film, foil, and wood industries.

LIMISTAT

Limistat is a series of electrically conductive rubber covered rollers designed to aid in dissipating static produced by webs.

Benefits: 

Reduce static build-up in high speed web applications.

Best Used For: 

Limistat functions best in high-speed webs that suffer from static electricity buildup.

Main Draw Rollers

Best Used For: 

Main Draw Rollers

Nip Rollers

Our nip rollers are available in alloy steel, carbon steel, and stainless steel. Nip rollers are also known as pinch rollers and by various other names.

Benefits: 

Proper selection affects product quality and line speeds.

Best Used For: 

They are used to press two or more sheets together to form a laminated product.

Pegasus

Pegasus rollers have foam polymer bases and offer superior compression and tear resistance. The patented, high release topcoat prevents picking and wrap-ups from adhesive contact.

Benefits: 

Patented, high release topcoat prevents picking and wrap-ups from adhesive contact and seals the covering surface to prevent grease and other contaminants from penetrating the foam.

Best Used For: 

Superior performer in an "no-crush" roll position weighing in at 70% less than rubber roll coverings. Less weight equates to better responsiveness, faster speed changes and less system drag.

Pegasus II

The Pegasus II utilizes the same technology as the Pegasus I but features a more wear-resistant urethane outer covering.

Benefits: 

These rollers are designed to compress and rebound back to its original size without generating heat.

Best Used For: 

Lay on roll position.

Pellex

Pellex offers specially formulated proprietary coverings and coatings that offer excellent abrasion resistance and overall force resistance which allows accurate delivery of the strands to the cutting unit, producing consistent, uniform pellets.

Benefits: 

Specially formulated covering has outstanding abrasion resistance which allows for accurate delivery of the strands to the cutting unit, producing consistent, uniform pellets.

Best Used For: 

Pelletizing equipment

Thermalon

Thermalon rolls are electrically heated rolls that deliver quicker warm-up times and rapid temperature recovery; with lower energy consumption.

Benefits: 

Thermalon boosts productivity through reduced maintenance downtime and improved temperature control. Thermalon can be easily retrofit to replace existing liquid systems.

Best Used For: 

Electrically heated rolls.

Wire/ Table Rollers

We apply ceramic coating to wire and table rollers in an effort to protect and enhance the rollers by providing excellent resistance against corrosion and wear.

Benefits: 

Excellent resistance against corrosion and wear.

Best Used For: 

Wire/ Table Rollers
