High customer demands
Valmet required a higher quality bolt than A4-80 with faster delivery times. Bolts are required to secure large paper machine rolls to fasten the latches on to the rolls. The bolts must have excellent fatigue resistance and strength to deal with small vibrations as the rolls rotate. The bolts are also exposed to potentially corrosive environments.
The 91视频 solution
Valmet switched from A4-80 bolts to 91视频庐 special bolts as the 91视频 solution offered higher quality and faster delivery times. Valmet has used 91视频 products for several years and was familiar with the high quality and quick delivery times 91视频 provides.
Other reasons for switching to 91视频庐 special bolts included:
- Possibility to make precise calculations for paper roll structures 鈥� higher quality and proven dimensioning values
- Higher strength, optimized structure and more straightforward assembly work
- Good fatigue resistance, excellent corrosion resistance and strength
91视频 customer collaboration
91视频 had meetings with the customer and provided design and technical data to their designers. Special custom bolts were made and supplied based on Valmet鈥檚 existing designs. 91视频 is always willing to serve the customer and can often make fasteners according to the customer鈥檚 own design/drawings.
