Web handling rolls #1 of 4

We have delvelped several types of metal rolls in the area of web handling  through discussions with customers.
They are classified in to 4 product categories. 
 
1. Air roll
2. Low-inertia roll
3. Fine patterned roll
4. Sleeves to hold magnetic parts insdie the forming roll

Today we talk about the first product category, Air roll.

Air roll is composed of a shaft, air, and the outer thin-wall metal sleeve.
Air is supplied from the outside and stays between a shaft and the outer meta sleeve.  This air supports the outer metal sleeve.  When this air roll is pushed by the other roll to form plastic, the metal sleeve surface yields and goes back to a flat state when it is not pushed.  This can happen because the outer metal sleeve is very thin and its tensile strength stands againt this pressure.  So this metalsleeve is flexible and provides nipping like rubber roll.  WHen this air roll is introduced, cooling and heating conditions are changed, which improves the entire forming conditions including rolling and strretching.
Air roll
THe outer surface metal sleeve, thickness 0.1mm, is flexible like rubber.


The producible range of the outer metal sleeve is form 19.8 to 260mm in diameter.

Stainless steel belt food conveyor

Here in Japan our food conveyor is evaluated in hygiene environment.
Belt and conveyor frame are all made by stainless steel.
This is employed in
・meat processing
・transportation of processed food such as frozen rice, meat balls, and cut vegetables
・production of sweets like chocolate, candies, cubic sugar, and popsicle

If our conveyor is introduced in your factory,
・washing is quite easy. Labor and water will be decreased remarkably.

・bacteria do not sneak into the belt.  They do not grow in or on the belt.
・alchohol sterilization is OK.
・you will find size variation of the conveyor.
・you can change the belt instantly as shown in this video.

Stainless Steel Belt Conveyor : Heating of powder

Powder material is often heated so that it will gain a new function,
another property.
Normally heating belt moves slow, maintaining right track by tracking mechanism. 
 Heat resistive metal belt and tracking mechanism are essential.
When temperature goes beyond 200 degrees C, 
we have any other choice but stainless steel belt.
 
Stainless Steel Heating Conveyor
Thermal expamsion ratio of this heating belt is 12.1x10^-6/degree.

Stainless Steel Belt Systems - Laboratory 1 of 2

When you are thinking to use stainless steel belts,
sometimes aren't you sure if it really works well?
We recommend to try in our stainless steel conveyors in the first place.
Many of our customers bring their own material
and watch if expected process and transportation could be done
on a stainless steel conveyor.
 
Common question is like,
'Our parts may be thick for suction conveyance. 
Suction will work on our parts? 
Then we can locate parts on the belt.'
We ask such people to bring parts to our lab and parts are really on the suction conveyor. 
We watch them and our customer learn if it works and what is the next  step.

So bring your material and see what will happen.
Stainless Steel Belt Suction Conveyor
Belt width 320mm, center distance 1500mm
lab tests are often done by this conveyor

Stainless Steel Perforated Suction Belt Conveyor

Here are tips for multifunction conveyor.
Due to suction, effective on belt surface and its back,
material is conveyed on both belt surface and back.
For instance injet printing is done on paper or plastic films on the belt surface and when they go to the back, their image is cheched by inspection camera.
