Voith Paper has introduced NanoGloss, a new calender roll cover offering a high level of mechanical stability and gloss on the paper.
According to Voith, “NanoGloss is a multilayer roll cover which can be used in all positions on super, soft and multi-nip calenders. The proven, innovative finer surface topography achieves a high level of gloss improvement. In contrast to conventional calender roll covers, NanoGloss retains its exceptional surface characteristics between each regrind. The matrix structure of NanoGloss also guarantees the highest levels of stability and resistance. Furthermore, NanoGloss can be repaired just as easily as any other Voith calender roll cover.”
With NanoGloss, it is possible to increase the level of calcium carbonate in the coating formula and still meet the gloss specifications. Hence, an increase in gloss can be translated into a potential annual cost reduction of EUR 1.3 million.
