June 9, 2006 - Along with integrated GlideLock rollers that facilitate loading and unloading of heavy rolls, with no spacers or hammers required, Air-roll-lock differential shaft uses internal clutching mechanism to control tension. Each GlideLock roller functions independently, enabling converters to run multiple width cores on same shaft while ensuring perfect tension every time. Product allows converters to use same shaft for many different jobs, optimizing uptime.

New Air-Roll-Lock Differential Shaft Design


A tension getter: New air-roll-lock differential shaft design gives converters exponential increases in converting capacity.

WHARTON, New Jersey - May 20, 2006 - Convertech, Inc. is changing the way converters do business with rapid advances in converting technology. With the introduction of an innovative, new differential shaft design Convertech has simplified the converting process and increased converter capacity in one, deft move.

With recent advances in their air-roll-lock differential shaft design, Convertech has taken the pain out of differential winding. Using an internal clutching mechanism to control tension eliminates operator error and can dramatically improve roll quality. The integrated GlideLock rollers also allow unprecedented ease in loading and unloading heavy rolls. Roll on and roll off; no more spacers, hammers, or workplace injuries.

The ease of loading and unloading is no accident. With the introduction of the GlideLock rollers to this advanced differential shaft design, Convertech has changed the way converters and their operators manage their daily workload. When mishandled, the heavy weight of finished rolls can present many workplace hazards. By easing the unloading process with the smooth action of the GlideLock rollers, operators can easily move finished rolls along the length of the shaft and on to the roll handling equipment without excess effort or risk.

With the addition of the GlideLock rollers to their differential shaft Convertech has given converter's a reliable and efficent way to make the best use of their machine time. Because each GlideLock roller functions independently, converters can easily run multiple width cores on the same shaft while ensuring perfect tension every time. Instead of being forced to change shafts for different jobs, the new differential shaft allows converters to use the same shaft for many, different jobs. This can reduce downtime dramatically.

For over a quarter century Convertech has been the leader in exceptionally fast lead time with superior engineering and quality built into every expanding shaft and chuck. With its competitors extended delivery time of as much as sixteen weeks Convertech, Inc.'s faster delivery time will always keep you up and running.
