AI Description

Beta

Capabilities

This rolling plant processes thermosetting plastics by flattening and shaping material between heated rollers. The setup includes two identical 1200mm-wide Berstorff rolling mills (400mm roll diameter, last serviced in 2000), plus supporting equipment: an Engelsmann screening plant for material preparation, glass fiber dosing devices, a suction blower, conveying units, and a Krauss Maffei test laboratory roller for quality control. Together, these machines create a complete processing line for producing sheets, laminates, and molded plastic components.

Industries & Uses

Manufacturers of composite materials, fiberglass-reinforced plastics, and industrial laminates rely on rolling plants like this. They're used in automotive, aerospace, construction, and electrical industries to produce parts requiring consistent thickness and material properties. Smaller operations entering the composite manufacturing business benefit from this integrated system's ability to handle glass fiber reinforcement and quality testing in-house.

What to Check When Buying

When evaluating this 1960s equipment, prioritize inspecting the roller surfaces for wear, scoring, or uneven wear patterns—these directly affect output quality. Request complete maintenance records, especially for the 2000 drive wheel renewal. Check that heating systems function reliably and that all conveying and dosing components operate smoothly. Verify the screening plant and test roller are calibrated. Ask about production capacity under current conditions and whether spare parts remain available.
