Before: In Need of Repair

Before: This contact roll is in desperate need of a new journal. It also needs a new rollcover with herringbone grooves.

After: Repaired

Recovered & Grooved After: This roll is ready to roll, with a new journal and new cover, complete with deep radius-cut herringbone grooves.

Before

Paper Industry Roll, Broken Journal Before: Cracked journals are common, especially for ‘veteran’ rollers. While your roll is here, we’ll inspect it for defects & notify you of any required repairs.

After

Journal with Nitrogen for Shrink Fitting After: Our technicians know every trick in the book for repairing rollers. Nitrogen was used in this case to freeze & shrink the journal on this critical journal replacement.
