Wall thickness

0,05 – 0,5 mm

Radial run-out

  • Diameter: 100 – 1200 mm
  • Bale length: 1000 – 10000 mm

We manufacture this type of cooling roller with coatings, made of stainless steel or steel, whereby the steel rollers are usually given a coating for protection against corrosion. If we use our stainless steel guide roll production for the cooling rollers, the typical dimensions and geometric tolerances mentioned there, also apply to wall thicknesses of 2 – 5 mm.

The bottom-shaft units are mostly manufactured in welded construction, less often as screw construction. The water drainage can be designed on both sides as well as on one side with internal water return.

Depending on the requirements, the thick-walled roller sleeves are turned inside out in order to obtain a uniform wall thickness across the width and circumference. As a rule, however, this is not desired, since the best compromise between price and function is often in the foreground in the case of single-coat construction.

If the dimensions and tolerances permit, we therefore recommend our cooling rollers made of calibrated stainless steel tube, because a uniform wall thickness is guaranteed, since the sheet metal coat is not turned.

The use of double-coated cooling rolls is necessary, if a defined cooling of the web with minimal deviation of the temperature over length and width is important in the production process.

Due to the forced guidance of the cooling water in a helical channel, which is formed between the inner and outer coat of the cooling roller, the surface temperature of the cooling roller or the heat transfer to the web can be set very precisely. Depending on the requirement profile, the water ducts are arranged in co current or counter current. The internal structure of the cooling rollers can be specified by the customer or designed by our specialists according to the specified boundary conditions. On request, we can create the mechanical and thermal design of your cooling roller(s) including recommendations for rotary unions and roller bearings.

The materials used are again steel and stainless steel as a welded construction or with screwed pin base units.

A speciality is cooling rollers with an inner body made of black steel and a thin-walled stainless steel outer coat. The outer sheaths are rounded from 3 – 5mm thick stainless steel sheet and shrunk warm onto the inner body without internal processing. The outer coat adapts to the shape of the inner body and after finishing, this coat has a very uniform wall thickness. With this design, we achieve radial run out accuracies of 0.1 – 0.5 mm and are therefore able to offer a double-coated cooling roller at a very good price-performance ratio, which can be used in many production processes. The decisive advantage: The surface of the cooling roll is 100% corrosion-protected without subsequent coating. The usual, expensive and time-consuming chrome plating is completely eliminated.
