Air Shaft

Air Shaft

Differential Shaft is a sophisticated winding shaft for slitter re-winder machine, used as duplex shaft winder (centre winding type).

  1.  It is capable of compensating speed variation due to gauge variation with multi cores.
  2.  Minimum 20 mm core width is possible.
  3.  Reel holding is possible at any position across the width.
  4.  No-time lost in re-positioning cores since no distance pieces are required.
  5.  Shaft can run at very high speed.

This shaft consists of slotted shaft, rubber bladders, hard and ground steel cage with ball type gripper.

MECHANICAL SHAFT

(BLADDER LESS SHAFT)

Air Expandable Shaft Manufacturer India, also, this is a lug type shaft but core holding is initiated mechanically and not pneumatically. This shaft mainly consists of slotted pipe, steel lugs, brass cam, ratchet etc. The shaft is capable of taking any challenge arising out of heavy load and speed. It is possible only because of positive gripping and core centering achieved without any extra efforts with the help of cam/lug design. It is very much advantageous with cores having uneven inside diameter. Key and alien-cap bolt prevent any shearing of journals – pipe assembly. we also manufacturer all type of Air Shafts like, mechanical shaft, quick look shaft, multi tube shaft, leaf type air shaft, lug shaft, ball shaft, mechanical expanding shaft, bottom knife holding shaft, multi bladder shaft, spare parts of air shaft, differential shaft, clutch shaft and many more. We are also manufacturer of all types of Bow Roll on desire size and machines

Sizes

  1.  Suitable for Core ID. 3″ and 6″
  2.  Length as per requirement

QUICK LOCK SHAFT

Economic model for Re-winder shaft having all the advantages like slippage, accommodating gauge variation, smaller core width etc. With only limitation of time needed for repositioning of the core. This shaft is suitable for Paper Cores.

Sizes

  1.  Suitable for core I.D. 3″, 4″ & 6″
  2.  Length as per requirement
  3.  Individual Quick Locks are also available having width of 50 mm, 75 mm, 100 mm and 300 mm. The bore of Quick Lock is tailor made.

MULTI-TUBE SHAFT

This is a very commonly used shaft. It mainly consists of slotted pipe, journals to suite users machine, lugs, rubber bladder and non-return valve. These types of shafts are suitable for both unwinding and winding stages. It can accommodate single core, multi cores of the width more than 150 mm. Type of pipe material, lug material are decided based on duty conditions like load, speed and core material. The limitations are, it cannot take care of gauge variation or individual core speed variation since slippage is not achieved and core width less than 1 50 mm.

Sizes

  1.  Suitable for Core ID. dia 3″, 4″, 6″, 8″ (metric size and special sizes also produced)
  2.  Lengths as per customers requirement

LEAF TYPE AIR EXPANDABLE SHAFT

This type of shaft mainly consists of slotted base pipe, metal leaves with knurling/serration, rubber bladder, non-return valve and suitable journals.

This type of shaft can be used at unwind station, but mainly used at rewind stage for advantages like:

  1.  Narrow width of core
  2.  To prevent damage to thin cores (100 % support available to the core ID.)
  3.  At times core-less winding is also possible

This also has a limitation to accommodate gauge and speed variation.

Sizes

  1.  Suitable for core ID. 3, 4 and 6 (metric size and special sizes also produced)
  2.  Lengths as required

Lug Shaft:

Grippers are slit through the metal pipe & the pneumatic bladder is used for inflating. The grippers give positive holding of the core.

> These shafts are strong & ridged

> Standardized design allows us to manufacture the shaft in any size diameter

> The same design can be offered for heavy duty to light capability shaft

> Simple design ensuring a long service

> Staggered lug design makes it best in winding application

> Each gripper offers a designed chamfer for easy core insertion

> Dimensional tolerance of journal is very tight for better fitting & rigidity during operation

Material:

> Pipe: Steel or aluminum

> Lug: Steel, Rubber or Plastic

Available Size:

> Core ID from 2″ to 12-

> Length up to 6000mm (“240”)

Option:

> Cantilever shaft

> Various size of lug (Gripper)

Ball Shaft:
A Shaft specially designed for slitters to handle constant tension on multiple slit. The base steel shaft has multiple bladders, mounted with Ball Locks for reel holding.
> Small width winging possible at very low web tension -A solution for Sensitive Material.
> Each slit material can slip at a different speed and same tension.
> Ball lock with spring design minimizing side movement while setting and running.
> Automatic tension controlling through rotary union in dynamic condition by signals from machine drive.

Available Size:
> 50mm, 70mm
> 3″, 4″, 5″, 6″ any size possible
> Minimum ball lock width 24 mm onwards

Mechanical Expanding Shaft:
Mechanical Expanding Shaft Externally Lug Type Expanding Shaft with Wedge type design makes it possible for concentric holding and allow high speed winding.

> Heavy spring is applied for ensuring sliding back of lugs.
> True mechanical advantage is used in achieving heavy clamping force.
