The Rollermax
is precisely
designed to do one thing:
Tension
& retension rollerframes as quickly
and easily as possible. With the Rollermax,
you can easily create and tension a rollerframe
screen in under six minutes, and retension a
frame in under a minute.
The Rollermax System:
- Is entirely human-powered
—no compressor needed
- can be used anywhere
in the shop, with no
hoses or cords
getting in the way
- Quickly adjusts to fit the
most
popular rollerframe formats,
with custom units available
for stretching frames larger
than 48 inches
- this saves a LOT of time
and headaches on
the big stuff
- Can be used to
stretch
mesh for static wood
and aluminum frames
- by using an oversized rollerframe
to stretch the mesh before gluing
- - a popular low-cost alternative to
pneumatic clamping systems -
and it won't draw electric power
away from the other machinery
- Consecutively reproduces
uniform screen tensions
- Completely eliminates frame
warp
by securely clamping down all
four corners of the frame at once,
while simultaneously applying
precisely even torque to
both ends of the roller
- an obvious design consideration...
the frame won't warp
if the forces acting on it
- are symmetrical and controlled
- Allows maximum
screen tensions
- tighter off-contact,
higher resolution,
better results,
maximum production
- Helps prevent mesh ripping
right at the source
- that's right, you can keep using
your mesh instead of having to
throw it away
- Won't fall apart
- the precision-designed,
- hand-welded steel superstructure
- is far stronger than the necessary
applied forces, guaranteed
-
- Pays for itself
- by saving time, materials,
- and aggravation

Dan
Lopez,
owner of KC
Screenprinting
in Albuquerque, New Mexico,
has this to say about his experience
with the Rollermax: |
- "We
have a print shop with an M&R 8-color Gauntlet,
a 12-color Challenger II and four 6-color manuals.
Last year we started printing large-volume orders on
high-tension mesh and began experiencing numerous
screen stretching problems. Our previously quiet and
serene screen department became a war zone with all
the employees blaming someone else for our screen stretching woes.
- In
1996 we gambled, purchasing a Rollermax machine at the
SGIA show in Dallas, and have been living happily ever after.
The machine saved us valuable employee time, greatly improved
tension consistency, reduced the incidents of "popping screens,"
and allowed, when needed, tensions measuring over 80 Newtons.
The savings in labor costs alone paid for the machine in no time at
all.
- Comet
Industries' personnel are accessible and responsive to any
technical assistance we need. I recommend owners of any sized
print shop to seriously consider Rollermax for your production
departments. My wallet and I are glad we did."

"We
LOVE our Rollermax unit and wouldn't be without it.
I truly think it is one of the best investments we have made
to date in terms of maximizing production." |
