Chemical resistance

ROBAFLOW demonstrates good chemical resistance to all forms of aggressive media within the paper industry (hot
soda lyes, hydrochloric acids, formic acids, sulfuric acids, etc., primarily 5 – 15% acids).

Transportation, storage, & assembly

The vanes are transported in special cases in which the ROBAFLOW is vertically suspended and protected against impacts from the side / front. The case must be stored upright to provide optimum conditions for storing spare vanes over a long period. When assembling the ROBAFLOW, the transport case is turned over and used as a guide rail. The ROBAFLOW can be slid directly out of the support in the case and into place on the headbox.

The transport case serves as both a place for storage and an assembly aid
The transport case is designed to be refilled with spare parts
The transport case provides additional protection for the narrow tips of the vanes
