Pneumatic Expanding Shafts With Leaves

 Mod. 639 PS

The 639 PS Pneumatic Expanding Shaft with Leaves is designed for unwinding and rewinding rolls, with or without cores. It is also suitable for multi-slit applications, including the handling of very narrow web widths.

The shaft body is manufactured from steel, while the expanding leaves are available in steel or rubber-coated options, depending on the core material and required torque. The journal ends are custom-made from various steel grades to meet specific application requirements.

The expansion mechanism operates through a single inflatable tube that applies pressure to engage the expanding elements when compressed air is supplied. To improve durability, the shaft is equipped with a specially designed tube protector that significantly reduces wear and minimizes the risk of air leakage.

For models equipped with journals larger than 50 mm in diameter, the SVECOM quick-change air tube system is available. This feature allows the inflatable tube to be replaced without removing the shaft from the roll or machine, simplifying maintenance and reducing downtime.
