Roll coverings and sleeves coatings for the plastic industry and flexible packaging

With the evolution that has taken place in the plastic sector, specifically flexible packaging, reaching speeds and manufacturing environments in very demanding plastic film machines, it is essential to have rollers, sleeves and sleeves laminators and elastomer presses with the right properties for this industry.

This is where Tecno-Caucho Rolls & Covers comes into play, thanks to our experience in the manufacture of cylinders, sleeves and sleeves for clichés and our constant innovation in the world of roller and sleeve coating formulations for the plastics sector and the flexible packaging industry, we have an extensive repertoire of exclusive formulas for sleeve and roller coatings. Undoubtedly one of the widest ranges of cylinder liners and all types of sleeves for your plastic film machinery.

Polyurethane, synthetic and natural rubber coatings for rollers, sleeves and press sleeves and laminators in their great variety, have been present in the elaboration and transformation of plastic films in their different aspects (formation, printing, stamping, lamination, etc.).

Nowadays, with the constant innovations of the plastic film industry and packaging in general, it is essential to have the sleeves and rollers covered with the most technologically advanced materials and the strictest quality controls in order to achieve the highest working speeds and maximise the final quality of the packaging product.

Closing and Pressure Rollers

In the process of forming plastic film sheet it is essential to have rollers, sleeves and sleeves with quality coatings, either for globe extruders or in-line or calender extrusion machines.
The sleeve or sleeve of the pressure roller is responsible for pressing the plastic sheet, and can control its stretching and thickness, thereby achieving the desired tension of the plastic film in our extruder.
