Pressure Mapping: Nip Measurement

Ensuring uniform nip pressure across the entire surface area of those rolls is crucial to producing a reliably consistent product, maintaining productivity, minimizing machine downtime, reducing waste, and more.

Obtain a uniform nip impression for roll setup, maintenance, consistency, and longevity

Taking routine nip impressions can help identify:

• Nip pressure and uniformity
• Roller alignment
• Proper machine setup
• Crowning (under- or over-crowning)
• Diameter variations
• Deflections
• Blanket & surface wear
