Brush Roll Applications
Almost 50 years ago, Osborn developed a revolutionary technology using brushes in the continuous rolling
process in order to optimally regulate the oxide film
on working and back-up rollers in hot rolling mills. As
a result hundreds of hot mills worldwide have been
equipped with Osborn technology.
To date, specially designed wire qualities, abrasive multifilaments, individually camber ground surfaces and
extensive experience in optimising the use of brushes in
numerous individual applications have secured a major
technological advantage for us in this field. The benefits
from this we can pass on to our customers worldwide.
In the meantime, with Lipprite® abrasive rollers, an
alternative technology, has also been developed and
manufactured in-house for skin-pass roller cleaning.
The brush roller itself is only part of the solution. This
technologically demanding application can only be
optimally implemented with a precise matching of
the brush tool to operational and process parameters.
The reproducibility of the specified corrosiveness and
brush effect as well as constant tool performance play
a crucial role from the first point of use to the exchanging of the roller.
Osborn’s Helimaster brush rolls are perfect for cleaning
work and back-up rolls in wet or dry operated rolling
and skin-pass mills. They have been fitted to technological developments worldwide for decades, both in
online lines integrated in strip lines as well as standalone off-line rolling stands.
The rollers can work sporadically or continuously when
designed as a wire or an abrasive brush. Each brush
is neutrally ground at the radius and gets axially. This
means that it gets either a cylindrical camber ground
or, for offsetting the computed roll deflection, a positive and/or negative camber ground.

Non-woven Roll Applications
For the cleaning of deflector, shape control or thickness
measurement rolls, special wear-resistant non-abrasive
plastic filaments are used. They ensure an equally
thorough removal of solids and liquid materials without
damaging the roll surface or altering the roughness.
At the same time, the filament type and bristle diameter are dependent on the surface hardness and the
degree of pollution of the roll that requires cleaning.
The individually adapted camber ground of the brush
roller body is one of the most important prerequisites
for guaranteeing uniform brushing across the entire
width of the roll. Depending on the construction of
the working or back-up rollers to be brushed and the
calculation of the optimum crown, convex or concave
contours are ground. Osborn, of course, also grinds
brush rollers with a CVC contour on CVC technology
mills for roller gap adjustment.
NCCM® Premier Yellow Neutral Mill Rolls are the
finest general-purpose, Non-woven roll covering
for primary metal and original equipment manufacturer
(OEM) stamping operations.
NCCM® Premier Yellow Neutral Mill Rolls are porous
to absorb debris that can mar the metal strip surface.
Once absorbed, the roll heals over so fewer repairs that
reduce productivity are required. If a problem does occur, the rolls can be quickly and easily repaired instead
of replaced.
Porosity also makes the NCCM roll compressible which
maintains consistently tight contact across the metal
strip to wring uniformly. Chemical tank to tank carry-out
and the need for auxiliary drying is reduced. The rolls
have up to 24 times greater coefficient of friction compared to rubber or urethane rolls to improve material
control by reducing metal coil slippage and hydroplaning. One NCCM® Premier Yellow Neutral Mill Roll
can last as long as up to 100 rubber rolls making it an
exceptional value for the money spent, especially when
costly line downtime is taken into account.
NCCM® Mill Roll premium roll covering products optimize countless metal sheet processing applications in
primary metals and AOEM (automotive original equipment manufacturer) stamping plants. They also show
exceptional value In other industries such as lithography.
Individually adapted camber ground
NCCM® Mill Roll technology is designed to replace traditional roll coverings such as rubber, urethane, Non-wovens
and various fabrics. NCCM® Mill Roll technology has features and properties that no other Non-woven rolls offer.

With brush furnace transportation rolls, Osborn customers can today place their trust in several decades
of experience and well known global references. In
the complex production of the rolls, some with a
total length of over 6000mm and 4000mm of brush
length, the highest level of precision and reliability are
required in all manufacturing processes.
After the rolls have been manufactured, the later course
of the sheet is accurately simulated in advance in our factory. For roll assemblies in new furnace lines, this allows
Osborn to guarantee an optimum course of the sheet
within tight tolerances even when starting up the run.
Benefits
• Optimum heat transfer between the transportation roll and the plate
• Longstanding lifetime without significant wear
of the brushes
• Complete avoidance of scale pick-up and spot
formation on the surface of the roller, just as it
is the case with self-contained roller coverings
• Total-care transportation of the plates during
the heat treatment without damaging the surfaces
of the plates

Applications
The tempering of hot mill plates made of precipitation hardening aluminum alloys through the process
of solution annealing, serves the purpose of attaining
higher strength and strain values along with a good
level of corrosion resistance. Today, this is required for
structural parts in aircraft in accordance with the strict
requirements of standards AMS 2750D, AMS 2750C
and AMS-H-6088.
The careful transportation of these aluminum plates in
‘hard metal and hard material technology’ roll hearth furnaces takes place as a batch or continuous process at tem-
16
peratures of up to 600°C on brush transportation rolls. In
close cooperation with leading equipment manufacturers,
numerous furnaces around the world have been equipped
in recent years with Osborn’s sophisticated technology.
In the process, plates with thicknesses of up to 400mm,
lengths of 20 metres and weights of over 10 tonnes do not
present a problem for us. Tolerances have been continually
reduced and product features optimised, so that now more
than ever, the brush roller is an integral and technologically
superior component in the overall design of the line.

In order to guarantee the lowest possible sheet tracking
with the ‘re-brushing’ of entire furnace zones the transportation of the sheets is simulated on an in-house test
rig just like new lines.
This advanced technology provides a convincing argument for why brushing with heat resistant wires is increasingly establishing itself as a roller cover for furnace
transportation rolls.
Aside from the production of new rolls, the recovering
and replacement of worn brushes in older lines is also
one of our core competences.
By precisely measuring the course of the plate as well
as the state of the individual rolls within the furnace by
means of self-developed test equipment, we are able to
optimise plate tracking if needed, which maximizes the
output of the entire system.
PICK-UP WILL NOT FORM ON THE BRUSH SURFACE
Roll coverings made from extremely dense stainless
steel wires in special alloys and resistant to high temperatures provide specific product features and strong
advantages compared to uncoated transportation
shafts or furnace rollers with ceramic coatings. These
can be used in different horizontal heat treatment lines
for strips of steel, stainless steel or non ferrous metals.
PROPERTIES AND ADVANTAGES
Scale / Iron particles
•Temperature resistance of up to approx. 1250°C
•Shaft construction with internal cooling
•Extremely dense and accurate neutrally ground

The demands relating to the quality and the technical
product characteristics of flat rolled steel in the form
of cold rolled steel, tin plated steel, electrical steel,
galvanized strips or other refined surface materials are
steadily rising. Along with increasing processing speeds,
optimising the tempering, refinement or coating process
of the upstream strip cleaning section also increases.
With the development and introduction of the HDL®
brush roller, Osborn has found an answer to these
demands, in comparison to conventional brush rollers.
HDL® sets new standards in the degreasing and cleaning of strip surfaces. Through the consistent development of quality, by looking at fill material, brush
construction and fill density, we achieve significant

LIPPRITE® – THE ABRASIVE COMPLETION FOR A PERFECT SURFACE
When it comes to the optical finishing of strip surfaces
in the form of polishing, satinising, finishing or decorative grinding and brushing, you’re in good hands with
Osborn. Decades of experience in the machining of steel,
stainless steel, aluminum and other ferrous or non-ferrous surfaces have given us a technological advantage,
from which our customers benefit worldwide today.
Our Lipprite® product series represents a completion
to brush rollers with wire or abrasive bristle coating.
Different combinations of adhesive and abrasive together with nylon web generate diverse products to meet
different demands. An absolutely uniform fine final grind
and a corresponding homogeneous surface finish can
be achieved with the special web construction. With the
correct contact pressure, the flexible roller web adapts
to the surface like a suspension and is in a position to
offset any slight unevenness of the strip (spring action,
see picture below).
Various grades of synthetic fibre and abrasive grit are
combined and bonded with special resin, firmly fixing
the grit particles to the non-woven fibres. The result is
an open, flexible structure. The material is self-dressing
and suitable for wet and dry processes. New abrasive

units
Non-woven and Brush Roll Applications
Blank washing units remove dirt and deposits from
the blanks and apply a protective film of oil. The Blank
washers are constructed with three to four pair of rolls
(6-8 total). The first pair of rolls are Non-woven Rolls
which are working as Feeder Rolls to control the blanks.
The center rolls are brush rolls and provide the cleaning
of the blanks. The exit rolls are Non-woven Rolls which
control the residual film thickness.
World-renowned quality and performance is what
makes our Neutral Mill Roll, made with NCCM Materials,
outperform all others.
Feeder Roll,
Brake roll,
Cycle Roll
The neutral roll is used in pH neutral environments and
oil applications. Our Rolls are made in variety of densities
and to your specification and roll processing need.
EXPECTED MAXIMUM RESIDUAL OIL
Osborn provides high performance Non-woven Wringer
Rolls for precise coating application of the lubrication
fluid and as Feeder Roll to pull in the blanks into the
machine as well as brush rolls for optimized cleaning of
blanks and sheets.
Our high-density Mill Roll material is considered the premium general-purpose roll covering for primary metal
and AOEM stamping operations.
