If you are in the market for corrugated rollers for your corrugated board production, you have probably noticed that some are more expensive than others. If you are among those who are skeptical, here are some benefits of induction corrugated rollers:
Forged cold rolling rolls are made of high-quality steel and meet customer demands for reliability, safety, and increased productivity. They can also reduce paper consumption rates by more than 1% and increase quality by 20 to 50%. Their durability and low-maintenance can also positively affect TCO. The benefits of induction corrugated rollers are endless. In addition to its ability to reduce paper consumption rate, these rollers can also help in reducing the cost of production.
Air entrainment reduces contact between the web and the roller. It can also affect other critical parts of the machine. The common quality measures for induction corrugated rollers include parallelism, level with gravity, and square with the machine direction datum. The air film thickness near exit narrows to 70 percent. These measures make it possible to adjust speed ratios between sections. They are especially beneficial for induction corrugated rollers, which have a low centerline.
The advantages of induction heating are significant, as they increase the total area heated by the furnace. They replace the traditional oxygen-acetylene heating method, which involves gas burning and a roller. These two processes use large amounts of oxygen, and the energy produced in induction heating is focused at a point or strip. Because the energy is concentrated at a point, induction heating increases efficiency and cost-effectiveness.
