The Stretchsleeve is successfully used, with the appropriate adaptations, in various fields such as paper, plastic films, non-wovens, converting. A special profile has been created on the helical grooves that ensures high friction and divergent action.
In the textile sector it is used to iron-out wrinkles and its action is valid on all types of fabric, tnt, and plastic films for coupling. The STRECHSLEEVE is the sleeve version of the classic rubber roller covering. The sleeve can be installed in a few minutes on a metal cylinder already owned by you, thus reducing machine downtime and shipping costs.
The main operating features are:
- Uniform fabric stretching action over the entire surface and not just the central part
- Spreading capacity even with low longitudinal tensions
- Spreading action based on the principles of the grooves (2-4 or 6)
- Solutions of different rubber compounds based on the temperatures and environments of use
- Fabric wrapping angle from 100 to 270°
