MoveRoll develops Braking Pad

Nov 06, 2015. /Lesprom Network/. The latest MoveRoll product development is called Braking Pad. Whether after the winder or on other rolling decks, before and after conveyors – MoveRoll Braking Pad can slow down the speed of rolls or stop them completely. Alternatively, the Braking Pad can reduce the settling time of rolls and to decrease roll movement such as seesawing or swaying, as the company says in the press release received by Lesprom Network.

MoveRoll Braking Pad consists of thin cushions that guarantee gentle handling and do not leave marks on the rolls. Its light weight and smart design make the installation very easy: Operators can put the Braking Pad to the desired location – e.g. before or after the conveyor – and the Braking Pad stays in place without that fixation or attachment are needed.

The braking occurs when paper rolls roll onto the Braking Pad: The soft material exhausts air when the roll weight squeezes the cushions which causes the rolls to slow down. Stopping of rolls can be achieved by the front pad causing counter pressure.

Major benefits that can be gained by using MoveRoll Braking Pad are, for example, increased safety on rolling decks, efficient yet gentle braking power and reduction of undesired roll movement, easy and fast installation.
