Dynamic Balancing - Run Smoother at Higher Speeds
When operating at higher speeds, unbalanced rollers perform poorly; they can induce slower linespeeds, damage to stock, and shortened equipment lifespans. To ensure smooth roller operation - even at high speeds - we offer a very effective two-plane dynamic and static balancing service. With specialized roll handling equipment and proprietary software, the Menges engineers can measure a roll’s performance at any speed. Small weight and balance modifications are then made to induce a smooth operation at any speed. We help customers run smoother and faster - it’s what we do every day. |

SuperSpanders - Handle Any Coil, Any I.D.
We manufacture custom rubber coil expander rings that allow coil processors to handle larger ID coils. They also buffer the harsh contact between the coil mandrel and the coiled steel ID.
Menges SuperSpanders virtually eliminate coil end scrap. The results are higher yields per coil, reduced waste and decreased operational costs.
Engineered for long life, our coil expanders are formed from a durable yet flexible elastomer. See your Menges Sales Engineer for more information.

Our coil expander rings are made in-house at Menges, manufactured to your specs. Choose 2 or 3 inch wide designs or wider 10 to
12
inch versions. Any ID is possible, up to 48 inches, and these handy devices can he made with or without expansion slits.
