PAPER ROLL TONGS

In branches of industry such as printing, large and heavy paper rolls often need to be transported. Paper roll tongs, paper roll grippers or TambourSpreaders are used for this purpose. Paper roll tongs from WIMO® enable rapid and safe paper roll transportation and are designed for a very long service life.

Like all WIMO® products, all paper roll tongs that we produce are individually designed for the relevant application scenario. The circumstances on-site are taken into consideration and utilised to optimal effect. This results in innovative and high-performance special-purpose designs. Our solutions also enable, for example, paper rolls to be stored in particularly confined spaces to save on space and storage costs. Our specially developed slewing gear makes it easier to position the paper rolls when placing them into storage. If necessary, multiple rolls can also be stored on top of one another.
