There are some highly experienced roller manufacturers who know how to grind steel rollers to the most demanding tolerances. They have also developed advanced profiling techniques which enable them to cut a wide range of patterns to suit your specific requirements. Their experience in this sector has enabled them to perfect the manufacturing process for the production of rubber and steel rollers. This requires a very skilled workforce and advanced CNC milling and turning equipment offering the capability to manufacture high quality steel rollers and roller components.
The technically advanced process of covering rollers in a single piece of rubber, developed by roller manufacturers like Clifton Rubber Co. Ltd, provides a higher quality end product than the traditional strip sheet covering widely used throughout the UK roller covering industry. Using the latest in grinding technology and equipment their skilled grinding team can provide ...
... a variety of patterned finishes to the roller covering including diamond, grooved and herringbone. While steel rollers are usually put to use in industrial applications as varied as conveyor belts in factories and airports to shutters in shops; spiral rollers are required by manufacturers of agricultural equipment.
Different sealing elements and bearings determine which types of steel rollers are suitable for different conditions. The rollers which are without shaft result in high loading capacity. They have pressed deep-drawn bearing holders and plastic adapters of which the surface is either unfinished or zinc-plated or covered with rubber. If required, guiding rings can added on the steel rollers. There are also many situations where it is vital that steel rollers do not create static electricity or friction sparks that could ignite a dangerous fire.
Steel rollers also get called upon to move farm produce on feed rollers for the grocery industry or to convey cans and packages of food that will be sold and eventually end up in our kitchens. In those situations it is important to make sure that the poly rollers and parts comply with strict FDA food grade standards and the roller covering has been done by an expert roller manufacturer.
