Pulp and Paper Solutions

 

Many materials age and wear quickly; bronze, brass, rubber and steel are not always the optimal material for a given application which affects efficiency and production. Using Redco™ Plastic products such as Redco™ Polyurethane and Redco™ UHMW will improve performance with little initial cost and long term benefits, as well as reduce wear and noise, and minimize product damage.

REDCO™ FEATURE APPLICATIONS:

Redco™ Synsteel Chip ScreensSynsteel sawmill chip screen

  • Faster flow over screen
  • Less problems with pitch build-up and freeze up
  • Longer wear – up to 100% longer wear
  • Fewer hang ups

TOP SCREENS

Usually done in 2 or 3 sections depending on the sizes: should be supported 18-24? to allow for sag – if possible, 16? centers would be ideal.

FINE SCREENSPulp and Paper Synsteel chip screen

Usually done in the same manner only with smaller holes – 3/8? dia. & bigger, some 5/16? done. The problem here is the thickness of 1/4? material causing a plug up  in the screen. This can be relieved by counter sinking the back of the holes.

Hold Down Rolls Cracking?

REDCO™ 750 & 70A DUAL HARDNESS HOLD DOWN ROLLS

A customer was having a big concern over the aluminum hubs cracking on their existing R & K hold down rolls. The hubs had a tendency to crack apart well before the urethane cover even had a chance to wear. As these rolls are solid and there are 5 rolls per line shaft, replacing each one was time consuming and expensive.

Getting away from the aluminum hub was the first step. Using a keyed Redco 750 hub and a Redco 70A cover was a simple yet very effective solution. On the last visit to the mill both the Maintenance Superintendant and the Maintenance Manager were ecstatic about the difference the newly designed rolls had made. No replacements were required and the rolls could now be used right up until the cover wears of the hub.

Redco™ Plastics can outlast traditional materials such as rubber, wood and some metals by up to 20 times. Call us today about your application, we can help save you part replacement costs and downtime expenses.
