An issue that many commercial roll users face is barring: peaks and valleys in the rolls that prevent you from providing the best possible manufacturing product. Barring is often hard to detect on a recently serviced roll – and even harder to eliminate – unless you’re working with a precision roll grinding expert.

Most roll maintenance providers make the mistake of grinding the roll while it’s still on the bearings, a technique that fails to eliminate barring issues. Instead, you should be working with a roll maintenance expert who removes the housings and bearings before each grind, as this enables them to achieve the tightest tolerances.

When roll grinding is approached this way, you get the most defect-free, roundest rolls – which affects your production quality, efficiency and profitability in a positive way.

Take a look at the following video to explore how precision roll grinding experts eliminate barring in your rolls and help you achieve maximum production efficiency.
