Roll for a supercalender and method for calendering a web

摘要

A paper machine roll, in particular a roll for a supercalender, which includes a frame and a polymer coating on the frame. The deformability of the polymer coating on the roll increases within a certain axial distance from the middle area of the roll toward the ends of the roll in order to compensate for the deformation state of the end areas of the roll frame, which deformation state is uneven when the roll is loaded.
