The right, modern roll cover solution brings more benefits
Valmet has an excellent selection of rubber covers providing reliable and cost efficient operation. For cases in which traditional approach no longer provides optimal wear resistance, there are more modern materials, such as composite or polyurethane covers available for the pulp drying process. Compared to customary rubber compounds, these modern roll cover materials bring clear, long-term benefits in longer running periods and improved dewatering.
Valmet’s roll covers such as rubber cover Press Roll Cover PT with improved wear resistance, Press Roll Cover VT, a tough composite cover that provides longer cover life, and hard coating Press Roll Cover TM are recommended for the most demanding conditions.
