Hold Down Roller Eliminator
The JKS Roller Eliminator system completely eliminates the rollers in the folding section of the machine, replacing them with heavy‐duty, ultradurable, spring‐loaded boxes, that provide a uniform and smooth surface for the belts to ride on. There is NO maintenance required to maintain the integrity of the system, and no possibility of uneven belt transfer.

JK Services Roller Eliminator
Langston Saturn flexo folder‐gluers come stock with a series of rollers for the folding section transfer belts. Over time, the rollers collect dust and wear out, requiring replacement, and causing uneven belt transfer in the interim.
