Air Shaft (Air Mandrel)
Categories: Air Shaft (Air Mandrel)
🚀Product Description
Niika air shaft (air mandrel, airshaft, expanding shaft) is an industrial device that uses compressed air to inflate an internal bladder, pushing lugs, leaves, or bladders on the shaft body to firmly grip the core for winding and unwinding materials. It is a critical component in roll-to-roll processes and can be used with tension controllers, brakes (air brakes), clutches, and edge position controllers. Niika air shafts are made of steel or aluminum, with internal bladders made of high-wear rubber. Through precise manufacturing and strict quality control standards, Niika air shafts provide long-term stable operation in industrial applications, reducing equipment maintenance costs and improving production efficiency. Niika air shafts come with a one-year quality guarantee, providing the highest quality assurance for your industrial production.
📌NIIKA Air Shafts (Air Mandrels) are available in three main types:
Lug Type
- Prevents core damage, effectively avoids material slippage, and reduces vibration issues at high speeds.
Leaf Type
- Features a full-length leaf design to protect delicate materials from pressure deformation.
- This type of shaft is not recommended for use as a differential shaft on slitting machines.
Multi Bladder Type
- Standard hard rubber material, aluminum bladders are also available for different needs, suitable for various industrial applications.
🚀Product Features
- Convenient and quick material changeover, reducing machine downtime for maintenance and improving production line efficiency.
- Stable and reliable pneumatic drive design, with heavy-duty reinforced type available upon request.
- Wide range of applications, such as: printing machinery, laminating and rewinding machinery, slitting machinery, coating and bag-making machinery, industrial automation equipment, etc.
