CX-Series Mill Roll

The ideal choice for most harsh chemistries.

NCCM™ Mill Rolls are today’s high-performance alternative to rolls made from non-wovens, rubber, felt, urethane and other conventional materials. Because of the unique 3M synthetic fiber construction, NCCM Mill Rolls last longer with less maintenance – while helping to improve process quality and consistency.

NCCM™ Mill Rolls CX and CX-Plus are specially engineered to perform in aggressive chemical environments, such as electrolytic lines for tinning, chroming or galvanizing; or on pickling, caustic cleaning or coil coating lines. They can make a significant contribution to increased productivity in the following ways:

More uptime
NCCM Mill Rolls can last significantly longer than rubber rolls, so they require changing less frequently, which can result in fewer unplanned stops.

Reduced maintenance cost
Because they are self-healing and resistant to cuts and gouges, NCCM Mill Rolls require fewer repairs than can rob you of productivity. When problems do occur, NCCM Mill Rolls are easily repaired, avoiding the cost of roll replacement.

Improved process quality and control
The uniform porosity of NCCM Mill Rolls, and their ability to maintain tight contact with the coil, makes thinner, more consistent coatings. And their high coefficient of friction reduces slippage and hydroplaning, for better material control.

Maintain integrity of process fluids
The compressibility and porosity of NCCM Mill Rolls allows them to conform to variations in gauge thickness and maintain consistently tight contact across the strip. This not only ensures uniform wringing, but has also demonstrated a significant reduction in carry-out of chemical from tank to tank.

Fewer defects on coil surface
Metal shards and debris can become trapped on the surface of rubber rolls, causing defects on the coil. The porous non-woven material of NCCM Mill Rolls tends to “pull” small particles into itself, where it is less likely to come into contact with the coil.

Lower energy costs
Because of their high coefficient of friction, the use of NCCM Mill Rolls can often eliminate the need for auxiliary motor -- while in most cases allowing faster line speeds and better tracking. And, because they provide through, uniform wringing, NCCM Mill Rolls can reduce or eliminate the need for mechanical drying in many applications.

Reduced chemical cost
By reducing carry-out and cross-contamination, NCCM Mill Rolls can help reduce your fluid consumption – and cut the cost of waste disposal.
