Damage Reduction

Product catalog summary
Overview: This document provides a comprehensive guide to reducing paper roll damage through various control mechanisms and equipment options. It addresses common issues such as torn layers, scuffing, out-of-roundness, core crushing, edge damage, and roll dropping.
Key Solutions:
  • Rotational and Tilt Control: These controls ensure proper alignment of the paper roll, reducing edge damage and roll dropping.
  • Adjustable Bumper and Application-Specific Pads: These features help in positioning smaller rolls correctly and minimizing clamp pressure.
  • Drop-Stop Valve: Prevents clamp pads from sliding down the roll, avoiding paper tearing.
  • Multi-Setting Relief Valve and AFC (Adaptive Force Control): These systems manage pressure and clamp force, addressing out-of-roundness and core crushing.
  • Digital Display and Clamp Force Indicator: Provide real-time feedback on clamping pressure and force, ensuring proper operation.
Specialized Equipment:
  • Load Cushion™: Absorbs shocks and reduces required clamp force.
  • Swing Frame: Offers enhanced roll handling speed and flexibility.
  • Split-Arm: Allows handling of two stacked rolls of different diameters.
Contact Pads: Various pads are available for different paper types, including Spray-Metal, Bonded Urethane, Flexipad, and more, each designed to optimize grip and minimize damage.
Clamp Models: Cascade offers a range of clamps for different roll sizes and weights, including Single, Medium to Large Roll, Jumbo, Sliding Arm, Single & Double Tower, Tissue Roll, and Pivot Arm models.
Conclusion: Cascade provides a total solution for paper roll handling, combining advanced control systems and specialized equipment to minimize damage and improve efficiency.
