Doctor blades
Our doctor blades are sinter pressed over a long period to offer extreme protection. LERIPA doctor blades only require small loading forces with no oscillation.
- No oscillation
- Optimum roll cleaning
- Up to 50% lower coefficient of friction (compared with standard doctor blades)
- Optimum price-performance ratio
Application
- For use in the wire section (breast roll, wire suction roll, all wire guide rolls)
- Press section (all felt guide rolls up to 1,000 m/min)
Supply range
All current doctor blades
Available materials
- ROBALIT 61
- ROBADUR ⇒ classic
- ROBADUR-MUF
- ROBAGLAS
Manufacture
All materials are produced through lengthy sinter pressing processes with extremely long press cycles.
This enables us to produce covers up to 12 m long with no welding seams and also ensures a tension-free
internal structure compared with the typical standard sinter press process and extrusion.

Customer satisfaction – this is what truly counts
Our product managers receive numerous e-mails every day filled with positive feedback from happy
and satisfied customers. Here is just a small selection:
Sappi Fine Paper Europa
"…The fact that these doctor blades do not require oscillation has considerably reduced our maintenance costs (ongoing repairs and loss of oil through movement)…"
W. Hamburger GmbH
"…Your ROBADUR doctor blades have enabled us to cease oscillation in these positions…"
Hamburger Rieger GmbH & Co. KG
"…This change allowed us to dispense with 34 drives for doctor blade oscillations in our fourdrinier machine. This makes maintenance much easier and saves money too…"
