About Rolls and Rollers
Rolls and rollers are cylindrical components used to drive, form, press together or handle webs of sheet metal, cloth, plastic, paper or other materials. There are many different types of products. Examples include conveyor rollers, rubber rollers, foam rollers, and ring rollers. A conveyor roller provides smooth, uninterrupted operation. A rubber roller provides relatively high rates of production. A foam roller is designed for the gentler handling of materials. A ring roller includes adjustable die pins for working with sheet metal. Most rolls and rollers are used inside of manufacturing equipment such as conveyors to guide materials and transmit power. The roller equipment that a company requires depends upon the application to perform and the type of material to handle.
