Laminating & Fusion Rollers

Fife Engineering manufactures new and refurbishes existing laminating and fusion rollers to ISO 9001:2015 standards. Using customer drawings or sample rollers, we produce components in stainless steel, carbon steel and aluminium with specialist coverings such as:

  • Silicone
  • Hypalon
  • EPDM
  • Nitrile PVC

Hardness ranges from 25 to 97 Shore, with silicone compounds capable of operating at temperatures up to 260°C. All silicone processing is carried out in controlled environments to prevent contamination, ensuring defect-free surfaces and consistent performance.

Roller diameters and journal ends are precision ground to maintain concentricity, achieving:

  • 0.012 mm parallelism
  • ±0.012 mm T.I.R.

This level of accuracy ensures reliable lamination performance and long service life.
