Explanation:
CALENDERS AND ROLLS IN THE DRY AREA

S-Roll technology - the Swimming Roll (S-Roll) makes it possible to compensate for the deflection of the roll over a wide-line pressure area and to carry out edge corrections. They are an essential component when large material widths need to be run at high speeds.
