Roller Services

We differentiate ourselves by anticipating market needs and developing state-of-the-art engineered solutions that help our customers stay at the forefront of their industries. Our services are continuously expanding to provide a more comprehensive experience, personalized solutions, and superior services. While our services are always evolving, our “core” services include our on-site coatings, reverse engineering, various finishing options, and journal/shaft/core body repair.

Core Fabrication

Industrial cores and bases are manufactured in-house with the capability to apply all material types. Our experienced team of engineers is available for design and CAD Drawing assistance. Whether you need a new live/dead shaft, idler, bowed, heat transfer, and more, we can engineer a solution for your unique application. Thermalon, our patented electric heat transfer rolls are a cost-effective advantage over oil, water, or steam heat-generating systems found in many converting operations. 

Roller Coatings

Plasma Coatings was developed as a unique dual-coating system that offers the wear and abuse resistance of thermal spray materials such as Tungsten Carbide with high release polymers like Teflon. Our expertise with polymer materials is gained from decades of providing the highest quality and most extensive selection of polymers. Our field engineers will evaluate your application to provide a solution and conduct lab testing with your product or with you to field test coatings to determine the perfect coating for your specific application.

Roller Coverings

All surface enhancement coverings are manufactured in-house giving users the best solution by balancing the engineering trade-offs of each covering type. Arcomax is the name brand for our all-encompassing polymer family of roller coverings. We provide standard compounds as well as blended and specialty formulated versions of standard polymer families. In addition to providing standard and customized compounds, American Roller also provides a variety of specialty covering options; Arcostretcher and Pegasus to name a few. The American Roller Arcostretcher is an all-purpose elastomeric grooved roller designed to remove wrinkles from paper, film, and foil without web distortion. And our Pegasus line of rollers provides a dual-layer compression roll with an abrasion-resistant outer cover for converting, corrugated, and printing industries.
