Expanding shafts are mechanical components used to securely hold the cores of material rolls during winding and unwinding processes. They expand to grip the inside of the core, ensuring stable positioning and efficient transmission of torque during operation.

Available in aluminium, steel, and carbon fiber, expanding shafts can accommodate rolls of various materials, sizes, and weights. They are widely used in the paper, plastic, printing, converting, and packaging industries.

Carbon fiber expanding shafts offer the advantage of reduced weight, allowing faster acceleration, easier handling, and improved operational efficiency. Customized designs are also available to meet specific machine requirements and production needs.
