Component Specifications

Definition
A cylindrical steel component designed as part of a felt guide roller assembly in textile manufacturing machinery. It serves as the central rotating element that supports the roller, maintains precise alignment of the felt material during processing, and transmits torque while withstanding operational loads and environmental conditions typical in textile production.
Working Principle
The steel shaft rotates within bearings to support the felt guide roller, ensuring smooth material guidance and tension control. It converts rotational motion from the drive system into controlled linear movement of the felt, maintaining proper alignment and preventing material slippage or distortion during textile processing operations.
Materials
Medium carbon steel (e.g., AISI 1045 or equivalent), heat-treated to HRC 45-50 for surface hardness, with optional chrome plating or nitride coating for corrosion resistance in humid textile environments.
Technical Parameters
  • Length 500-3000 mm
  • Diameter 30-100 mm
  • Hardness HRC 45-50
  • Load Capacity Up to 5000 N
  • Surface Finish Ra 0.8 μm max
  • Straightness Tolerance 0.05 mm/m
Standards
ISO 286-2, DIN 748
