As your full-service partner, Hannecard-ASB is dedicated to delivering the best roller covering or coatings for your workflow, custom-manufactured to your exact specifications. We recognize that every production line is unique; that's why our experienced team is ready to discuss your requirements and guide you through a range of options, including specialized roller coatings with properties like antistatic capabilities, improved release, acid resistance, and more.

Soft Polyurethane Roller Coverings

Monkal® soft polyurethane roller coverings provide outstanding surface-wetting properties and high surface energy for efficient laydown. Soft roller coatings are often ideal for applications in applications requiring a gentler, lower-impact roller surface, including, tissue processing, packaging, laminating, and more. They add many other advantages to your processes, including:

  • High purity and homogeneity
  • Suitable for use in solvent environments
  • Better stability in contact with solvents compared to other polyurethane covers
  • Good resistance to abrasion and tear
  • Easy to grind and groove
  • Specifically designed for applicator rollers for color coating, varnishing, lacquering, glue application, and chemical coating
  • Can be applied in other roller coating applications, including wood, flexible packaging, plastic film, aluminum foil, PVC, flooring, and others

·   Hard Polyurethane Roller Coverings

Featuring 65-95 Shore A, hard polyurethane roller coverings are designed for managing mechanical forces. Ideal for high-load and heavy abrasion applications, including humid and oily environments. Hard roller coatings are often used in material handling, paper processing, conveying, and other rugged applications. These coatings offer many advantages, including:

  • Excellent resistance to abrasion, tear, and cutting
  • Very high elasticity
  • Good resistance to grease and mineral oils
  • Excellent performances in metal strip processing (including pinch, snubber, hold-down and pressure rollers, tensioning, bridle, steering and traction rolls, cradle rollers, and more) as well as transformation of paper, plastic film, tissue, and textiles

We offer specific hard polyurethane roller coating compounds with a range of properties and performance options to meet your application's specific requirements. Options include:

  • Very high purity for optimal glue transfer and homogeneous coating
  • Very good wettability and low surface roughness
  • Outstanding dimensional stability for an improved lifespan
  • Limited dust clogging for lower maintenance requirements
  • Very good chemical compatibility, including lubrication oil
  • Ability to meet very precise dimensional tolerances

Ribbon Flow Application Process for Wheel Coverings

At Hannecard-ASB, we apply polyurethane onto roller cores using a ribbon flow process. This application method creates durable and evenly distributed wheel coverings with minimal bubbles or voids.

In the ribbon flow process, a machine extrudes a continuous ribbon of molten or semi-liquid polyurethane onto a roller core, forming a smooth, spiral ribbon as it wraps around the core. As the ribbon flows onto the roller, it is laid down in a pattern that builds up multiple layers, allowing for precise control over the thickness and uniformity of the coating. After the polyurethane is applied, the roller undergoes a curing process to harden the material. Once cured, the roller is machined to achieve the exact tolerances required for its intended use.

Advantages of the Ribbon Flow Process for Urethane Roller Coatings

  • Allows for precise control over roller covering thickness
  • Provides an even coating
  • Reduces potential for flaws that could affect performance or lifespan
  • Very durable finish quality
  • Urethane is applied directly to the roller, minimizing material waste
