Hiawatha Rubber adds a new Class 100,000 clean room facility for manufacturing cleaning rollers up to 16 in. long and up to 5 in. in diameter. Sticky or tacky surfaces are custom made to meet each particular application requirement.
These cleaning rollers are custom designed for medical imaging systems, packaging equipment and automated systems used in the manufacture of printed circuit boards, credit cards and photographic film. Helping to ensure production of a quality product, they remove dust and particulate at critical locations in automated systems. By preventing contaminant buildup, these cleaning rollers facilitate longer system operation.
OEM system designers will find that Hiawatha Rubber offers a wide range of cleaning roller options to meet their design needs. Various size roller hubs and materials including aluminum can be used, as well as specific outside hub diameters with defined run-out tolerances. Any length from 1 in. to 16 in. with diameters up to 5 in. can be specified.
To facilitate ordering and timely delivery, Hiawatha Rubber offers material formulation chemistry, CAD design tooling, injection transfer molding, CNC grinding, and CNC machining of these cleaning rollers in both small and large quantities.
