The ability to stand up to the chemical and high-heat environment of textile manufacturing is the first requirement for successful roll covers. Equally important is the need to provide the long service life that delivers the economy necessary to compete in today's global marketplace.
Improved quality, increased efficiency and innovative value are the primary benefits that Stowe Woodward technologies bring to the textile industry.
Eliminating premature roll hardening, compromised performance from chemical attack, premature yarn wear, and cover debonding are examples of roll solutions that increase line efficiency. Engineered roll covers with longer service life enable textile manufacturers to compete amoung increasing global pressures.
Bin Piler Roll
A pull roll used to accumulate the cloth web into the J-Bin.
Excellent coefficient of friction is required in order to grip the web and eliminate premature wear due to slippage.
Desize Saturator
The purpose of the desize saturator roll is to immerse the woven fabric into solutions that aid in chemical extraction.
It is important to retain roll hardness properties in order to maintain the desired coefficient of friction. The harsh chemical and heat environment must also be tolerated in order to maintain a strong cover bond.
Exit Squeeze Desize Washer
The exit squeeze desize washer applies pressure in the nip to extract size from the web.
Chemical attack from modern penetrants can cause roll hardening and surface cracking leading to narrower nip width, reduced dwell time, and reduced chemical extraction.
Caustic Saturator
The caustic saturator is used to immerse the web into the caustic chemical solution.
A successful cover prevents the hardening which can leads to nip width reduction and shorter dwell times.
Exit Squeeze Caustic Washer
This roll applies pressure in the nip to extract chemicals from the web.
This roll cover must prevent roll hardening which reduces nip width and decreases dwell time. It will also have caustic chemical resistance to prevent roll cover hardening and surface cracking.
Peroxide Saturator
The peroxide saturator roll immerses the web into the chemical treatment solution.
The successful cover has excellent peroxide resistance to prevent roll cover hardening and surface cracking.
Exit Squeeze Peroxide Washer
The exit squeeze peroxide washer roll applies pressure in the nip to extract peroxide and other chemicals from the web.
High-performance covers have excellent chemical resistance to peroxide concentrations which can cause roll cover hardening and surface cracking.
J-Box Plaiter Roll
The pull roll is used to pull the cloth web from the J-Bin.
Excellent coefficient of friction of the roll cover prevents unnecessary wear caused by slippage.
