Carbon Fiber Rolls for Custom Performance


NimCor manufactures custom composite rolls ideal for low inertia idlers, tension control sensor rolls and dancer applications

(Nashua, NH) - While carbon fiber products are still somewhat new to the converting industry, NimCor has manufactured composite air shafts and rolls for years. NimCor's in-house composite tube winding operations provide exacting roll performance in meeting applications where greater control is needed throughout the web converting process - especially with new substrates, such as thin-gauge films and nonwovens. A lightweight alternative to steel and aluminum rolls, live and dead shaft custom composite rollers are readily available from NimCor without long lead times and without the premium pricetag. Customers can also specify roller bearings in order to minimizes their spare parts inventory.
