ROLLER, AND PRODUCTION OF A ROLLER AXLE

摘要

The invention relates to a roller for treating paper, tissue, cardboard, or another fiber web in a machine for producing and/or finishing the fiber web, comprising a roller sleeve (15, 25) which can be rotated about a stationary axle (1) that is supported in bearings (18) by means of pins (2), said roller sleeve being pushed in the direction of a counter pressure element (19) by means of a support device (17) on the axle (1) when forming a press gap with said counter pressure element. The aim of the invention is to provide a novel roller axle design which is easier to produce but which still has a suitable resistance torque against bending. This is achieved in that the axle part which applies at least 90% of the desired resistance torque in the pressing direction or the axle (1) itself consists of a sheet metal (4) with ends which have been tapered into pins (2).
