For precautionary purposes, NanoPearl M was removed after 1000 hours and examined via ultrasound. The results revealed that the roll cover was completely fine; evidence of the great potential of NanoPearlM and the possibility of an even longer runtime.

The paper mill was totally impressed by the performance of NanoPearl M and ordered two other roll covers.

NanoPearl M is Voith Paper Rolls’ new calender roll cover for multinip calenders. It possesses real nanoparticles and was specifically designed to meet the highest demands of nip frequency, linear distributed load and temperature. NanoPearl M not only makes an impression with the achieved lifetime but also with its vibration resistance and wear resistance.
