CHECK LIST OF BELOIT ADVANTAGES

  1. Rigid, fine hard iron frames and drums, cast and machined by expert craftsmen.
  2. Anti-friction bearing mountings for drums, winder shaft, rider roll, paper-carrying rolls, and slitters.
  3. Shear slitters, mounted so as to be open and easily accessible, giving clean, smooth edges. (Available with separate motor-driven bottom slitter bands or single motor-driven bottom shaft)
  4. Accurate balance of drums and rolls insuring smooth operation at high speeds.
  5. Adjustable unwind stands for positioning and aligning sheet going into winder. (Oscillation and constant tension available if desired.)
  6. Adjustable contour spreader bar which separates wound rolls.
  7. Patented adjustable shaft counterbalancing mechanism to equalize weight of windershaft slides and bearings, thus insuring even starting pressure from the drums across the winding-roll face.
  8. Adjustable paper roll for close control of tension distribution across the sheet.
  9. Patented variable rider roll counterbalancing, so arranged that the combined weight of the winding roll and pressure of the rider roll produces constant pressure on the drums.
  10. Variable-speed separate motor drum drive, or varipitch sheave drive between drums, to regulate relative drum speeds to control roll hardness.
  11. Driven rider roll, either by belt or by motors, either solid or equipped with intermediate bearing supports and sectional rolls, may be equipped with rider roll slitters.
  12. Power operated strap, disc or shoe type, water-cooled unwind stand brake to provide complete control of sheet tension from operator's panel.
  13. Patented counterbalance application mechanism applies counterbalance load at center of cross-shaft, equalizing torsional deflection effects in cross-shaft and insuring accurate alignment and pressure application by rider-roll.
