Advantages of the carbon fiber rollers

Higher speed and lower weight 

Carbon rollers for converting machines normally achieve twice the critical speed of the corresponding steel rollers and weigh 10-15 times less.

Wider formats
Due to the stiffness and lightness of carbon the film working formats can become wider and increase the production.

Lower starting time 

Thanks to the lower inertia, the plant starting time can be overwhelmingly lower with a better efficiency in production.

Many rollers don't need to be powered


Often metallic rollers, due to the weight and lightness of the film they carry, have to be powered and controlled by complex electronic systems in order to avoid stretch or damages. The lightness of carbon is such that even a light film traction can move the roller, saving all cost derived by motors, electronic drivers, control systems and energy necessary to power it.
