ROLLER CARD CLOTHINGS: The crucial quality component

Today, roller cards are still used in most nonwovens facilities. The associated variety of applications and processing technologies in web production pose a challenge to clothings. Flawless transfer and compression over the roller creel and even distribution over the working width form the basis for high-quality web formation.

TCC draws on precise manufacturing technologies and continuous developments. The objective is to optimize working steps, such as randomizing and many other functions by means of different clothing geometries and shapes. TCC roller card clothings give you the certainty that the quality and appearance of the web at the machine output will always meet your requirements.

BENEFITS AT A GLANCE:

• Reduced fiber adhesion
• Less buildup on the roll cover
• Improved start-up performance
• Less cleaning effort and downtime

SUPERFLOW

SUPERFLOW was developed to ensure that production processes run smoothly and consistently, even at high line speeds. Increasing line speeds and varying raw material qualities significantly raise the bar for process reliability. Even the smallest amounts of fiber fragments adhering to the roll surface can disrupt material flow and lead to buildup, bubbling effects, irregularities in the nonwoven, and unplanned downtime.

SUPERFLOW addresses these challenges with a specially developed surface treatment for rolls in critical nonwoven applications, particularly in the area of compression rolls. The exceptionally smooth, scale-free, and brushed surface minimizes imperfections and significantly reduces the adhesion of fibers and residues. This reduces buildup before it becomes a process problem.

The optimized interaction between fibers and the roll surface ensures a more uniform material flow during the compression process, reduces fiber slippage, and improves start-up performance. The result is cleaner operating conditions, less cleaning effort, and overall more stable production.
