NewsImperial Rubber Publishes Technical Paper on Measuring Your Roller's True ShapeCHINO, California -- (January 3, 2009) -- AbstractRoller geometry directly affects the way a web is handled through a machine. Common roll tolerances address roller diameter, taper and TIR. But what do these variations really mean to the end user? Most line operators and engineers have a general understanding of these properties but not how they affect their product let alone the proper way to measure these variations. A simple dial indicator cannot reveal the true concentricity of a roller. This paper will discuss roller geometry variation, its affects on web handling and new-to-the-industry techniques to determine the “real” values for these variations.
