Frequently Asked Questions
Q1. What is a Friction Air Shaft?
A Friction Air Shaft is a pneumatic shaft that combines air-operated core gripping with friction control to provide secure core holding and controlled tension during winding.
Q2. How does a Friction Air Shaft work?
Compressed air activates the shaft's gripping mechanism to securely hold the cores. The friction system then provides controlled torque for consistent winding of individual rolls.
Q3. What are the advantages of a Friction Air Shaft?
It provides secure core holding, individual tension control, smooth winding, quick core changes, and improved roll quality.
Q4. Where are Friction Air Shafts used?
They are commonly used in slitting, rewinding, paper, film, foil, flexible packaging, label, printing, and other web-converting applications.
Q5. Can Fortune Roto Control manufacture customized Friction Air Shafts?
Yes. FORTUNE ROTO CONTROL PVT. LTD. can manufacture customized Friction Air Shafts according to core ID, shaft length, number of rolls, roll weight, operating speed, and machine requirements.
Q6. What is the difference between an Air Shaft and a Friction Air Shaft?
An Air Shaft primarily provides pneumatic core gripping, while a Friction Air Shaft also provides controlled friction or differential tension for individual rolls.
Q7. What information is required to select a Friction Air Shaft?
Core ID, shaft diameter, shaft length, material width, roll weight, number of rolls, machine speed, and required winding tension are important for selecting the correct shaft.
