What to check before ordering edgebander rollers

Identify the position before comparing dimensions

Different rollers on an edgebander can have similar names. Start by showing where the existing roller is installed and describing its function.

A close-up shows the component, while a wider view helps our sales team understand its position and surrounding parts. Include the machine brand, model and any visible markings if available. If that information is missing, send what you have and mark the rest as unknown.

• A view of the roller in its installed position.
• Front, rear and side views of the old part, where available.
• Machine identification and any complete markings on the part.
• A short description of the roller’s location or function.

Keep the key measurements separate

For a roller enquiry, record the outside diameter, mounting bore dimensions and roller width. Show where each measurement was taken and include the unit. Record the roller-body width separately from the overall width, which may include a hub, bearing or projecting section.

Photograph the bore shape as well as recording its size. A measurement without a clear reference point may describe a different feature from the one the supplier needs to check. If wear makes a measurement uncertain, say so rather than presenting it as the original nominal dimension.

• Outside diameter, with the measured surface identified.
• Mounting bore dimensions and a clear view of the hole shape.
• Roller-body width and any different overall width.
• Units and an indication of which measurements still need checking.

Show the mounting details and specify the parts you need

The roller body is only one part of the comparison. Show any hubs, bearings, shaft ends and fixing features visible on your existing assembly. These details help distinguish similar-looking options before a replacement part is confirmed.

State whether you need the roller alone or any related parts. Do not assume that a shaft, bearing, bracket or fixing shown in a photograph is included in the quotation. Ask our sales team to specify exactly which components are included.

List different versions as separate items

For wholesale replenishment, give each version its own reference, photographs, measurements and quantity. Two rollers with the same general name should remain separate if their dimensions or mounting details differ.

Send an enquiry even if some details are missing. Our sales team can review the information and follow up with you. Before ordering, confirm the selected item, included parts, quantity, price and dispatch arrangements for each line.
