The STRETCHROLL is successfully used, with appropriate adaptations, in various industries such as paper, plastic films, nonwovens, and lamination. A special profile has been engineered into the helical groove to ensure high friction and effective divergent action.
In the textile sector, it is used as a fabric spreader and is effective on all types of fabrics, nonwovens (TNT), and plastic films for lamination.
The STRETCHSLEEVE is the sleeve version of the rubber expander roller. The sleeve can be mounted in just a few minutes onto an existing metal roller, significantly reducing machine downtime and shipping costs.
Key features of the STRETCHROLL:
- Uniform fabric spreading across the entire surface, not just in the center
- Effective performance even under low longitudinal tension
- Spreading action based on groove principles (2-4 or 6)
- Available in different rubber compounds, suitable for various temperatures and operating environments
- Fabric wrap angle adjustable from 100° to 270°
