Identifying
the right roll configuration is critical to a successful calender design. BF Perkins has
created hundreds of
configurations, or set-ups, over the years, one of which can be adapted to your
application. With a wide variety of metal and resilient rolls available, Perkins can meet
your specifications.Resilient rolls can either be fiber filled or covered with natural
or synthetic material to produce uniform effects on web materials. Fiber fillings include
our proprietary HRCC (heat-resistant carded cotton) and HRWC (heat-resistant wool cotton).
The variety of natural and synthetic covers is virtually endless. Let us help you identify
the most effective resilient roll for your application. |
Metal
rolls are engineered and constructed of double-shell forged steel or chilled iron to
maintain a uniform roll-face temperature, with a profile variance within 2°F (1°C) while
operating at up to 500° F (260° C). Metal rolls are available with many options,
which include:
- Nickel or chrome plated
- Release coated
- Precision ground
- Heated or cooled
- Hardened (case or through)
