Super Rolls
Automatic Feed Company’s SuperRolls™
start with domestically produced materials in various sizes
and in only the highest grades. All material is produced to
our exacting specifications.
Precision rough turning reduces stresses that
are usually corrected after heat-treating by straightening.
At Automatic Feed Company, we believe that is best to control
the machining process and reduce roll stress before heat-treating.
Our rolls are produced with the latest in
roll finishing technology, including infrared measurement of
surface temperatures to control maximum surface hardness and
case depth; cryogenic treatment of our rolls completed the hardening
transformation of retained austenite to martensite; and our
grinding and super-finishing to a minimum of 300 RMS.
And we keep solid records for you. Mill certifications
begin the tracking process that follows the roll through its
lifetime. At completion, each roll receives a serial number,
is measured and documented following turning. Each time a roll
is returned to Automatic Feed Company we update our records
to ensure that we have a complete and detailed record of each
roll.
SuperRolls™ can run
up to three times more steel than other rolls.
