Alveotube 2RK
Alveotubes with aluminum profiles. The unique and patented construction is very light but also very rigid. Our Alveotube consists of an inner tube and outer tube that are connected by means of transverse partitions (Alveos).
By means of an extrusion process we are able to supply our Alveotubes in seven diameters up to a maximum length of approximately 6 meters.
Ideally, our Alveotubes can be used wherever web-shaped materials have been marked and noted. Web-like materials such as paper, foils, textiles, non-wovens, tapes and laminates.
We also offer you various finishing operations such as straightening, grinding, (plasma) coating, rubberizing, etc. In fact, almost anything is possible.
Our Alveotubes have been shown to suffer in machines and batteries. Because of their small size, they can also be constructed as cooling rollers.
One of the finishing operations that may be possible is to make grooves on the surface of the Alveotube. This has the advantage that the materials are less likely to get pike on the guide roller. Another advantage is that the roller is fired as a light draft roller. The grooves from the center to the depth and so the material has some stretch across the width.
We currently supply our Alveotube 2RK in diameters 120 and 145mm.
