Rubber Expander Roller 13000mm Banana Roller For Converting Machine

Expander rolls, also known as Spreader Rolls, Bowed Rolls, Curve bar Expanders, Banana Rolls, Camber Rolls, and Wrinkle Removing Rolls, are primarily driven by web tension without requiring additional power. These essential components are widely used in textile processing machines, plastic converting machines, paper industries, and various manufacturing, processing, printing, laminating, coating, batching, winding, and re-winding applications.

The key difference between standard straight rollers and expander rollers lies in their axis curvature. While a straight roller has an infinite radius, expander rollers feature a deliberate arc. This design addresses the cross-sectional shrinkage forces in materials like paper that often cause wrinkles during processing.

When material approaches the arc roller, both edges gradually tilt toward the roller ends, creating tension that prevents wrinkling. As contact continues, every point of the material moves perpendicular to the roller surface for uniform distribution.

Expander rolls are essential components in paper, film, textile, and similar processing equipment. Their primary function is to counteract material shrinkage forces that cause wrinkles during production. The carefully calculated arc determines material tightness, directly affecting anti-wrinkle performance.
