Improvement of surface on rubber roller
Improvement of surface on rubber roller
(OP)
Dears,
We are developing a soft rubber compound for covering rubber rollers used in printing industry.
The rubber compound we got is 25-30 shA hardness but we have some problem with the surface we got after grinding the roller-it is not smooth enough.
I will be grateful if someone has any proposal for improving the grinding surface.

Have you tried manually sandpaper the roll? Not with any machine, but human hands and a fine, water sandpaper, sheet? Sometimes the human hand can have that dampening effect on rough things, and can regulate the applied force. But depending on the rubber, you might really have to cool down to harden it, thus making it easier to finish.
The human usage has 2 problems: might not have an even surface with very fine accurancy, and it's more exausting for a worker than the machine.
Hope it helped.
