What‘s air shaft meaning?
It is a device that generates rotational force through gas flow. In the printing industry, the air shaft is one of the commonly used equipment to control and support the web material (such as paper, film, etc.) on the printing press.
The following are common air shaft accessories in the printing industry.
Air Shaft Adapter(Air Cover) : It is a mount used to connect an air shaft to a roll of material. In the printing industry, different roll materials may have different inner diameter sizes, while the straight line of the atmosphere axis on the printing machine is fixed. In order to accommodate roll material of different sizes, an air shaft adapter is required. The adapter is usually installed on the axial tube of the air shaft, and the actual fixation and transmission of the coil can be achieved by changing the size of the adapter to match the inner diameter of the roll material.
Air Gun: It is a hand-held device used to provide airflow. In the use of air shafts, an air gun is typically used to inflate the air shaft's bladder to inflate it. Through the air gun, the inflation and exhaust of the air bag can be controlled to adjust the diameter of the air shaft and fix the roll material.
Air Valve: An air control valve is a device used to control gas flow and pressure. In air shafts, air control valves are often used to regulate the inflation and deflation speed of the air shaft's internal air cells. By adjusting the switch state and opening degree of the air control valve, the diameter control of the air expansion shaft and the fixation of the roll material can be realized.
Mechanical Expandable Shaft: It is a device used to fix and control roll material. It is commonly used in applications such as winding, printing, coating and rewinding in industrial production. The main function of the mechanical expansion sleeve is to provide reliable fixation and force transmission of the roll material.
Air Shaft Chuck: It is a device used to hold a roll of material. It usually consists of two adjustable jaws used to grip the ends of a roll of material. Through the adjustment of the clamp, the firm fixing of the roll material on the air shaft can be ensured to prevent loosening and sliding.
Air Shaft Bladder (air bag): It is a key component of the air shaft, usually located in the shaft tube of the air shaft. The airbag can be inflated and deflated to adjust the diameter of the inflatable shaft. When the bladder is inflated, it expands and contacts the web material, providing retention and force transfer. When the air bag is exhausted, the diameter of the air expansion shaft decreases, which facilitates the unloading of the coil.
