Embossing Rolls
Fibre filled backing rolls represent the best performing and most cost effective alternative
for the majority of embossing applications today.
Woollen Paper
Bowl Properties related to Calendering Characteristics
- Cotton and wool paper-based cover of a pressed construction
- Wool content (10-45%) and hardness can be varied to suit
the application - Conforms to the engraved steel roll to give a precise emboss
- Suitable for fine or deep designs
- Geared and un-geared applications
Super Elastic™
- 100% woven cotton-based cover of a pressed construction
- Suitable for fine designs (under 1mm pattern depth)
- Greatly reduced run-in time
- Shallow patterns can be run over each other without the need for regrinding (ideal for Turret Embossers)
- Highly resilient – minor damage marks recover easily
- Less machining means longer roll life and reduced downtime
- Geared and un-geared applications
- Increased roll life and improved productivity over traditional woollen paper rolls
Syncast™
- Woven and knitted natural fabrics
- Woven and knitted synthetic fabrics
- Non-wovens
- Paper
- Vinyl / imitation leathers
- Aluminium foils
Operational benefits
- Excellent smoothing effect
- Excellent glazing effect when used in conjunction with a highly polished steel roll
- Excellent densification of calendered cloth
- Running stability enables higher and more homogenous lustre at higher speeds
- Syncast™ produces excellent lustre / feel / matt effects when used in combination with cotton rolls
