Crease-Free Film Webs in Practice: Bogucki Folie Relies on Mink Web Spreader Rollers

Stable web guidance, crease-free material webs and consistent quality are key factors in modern film extrusion. This is why Polish film manufacturer Bogucki Folie relies on Mink web spreader rollers in its production lines.

Bogucki Folie sp. z o.o., based in Jatne near Warsaw, is one of Europe’s leading manufacturers of polyethylene films. What began as a family business in 1983 has developed into a modern film manufacturer producing for numerous customers and brands throughout Europe. Consistent film quality across the entire web width is an essential prerequisite for stable and reliable production processes.

Production takes place on modern blown film and extrusion lines from European machinery manufacturers. Especially at high production speeds, web tension, web tracking and film quality must work together perfectly. Creases, curling web edges or electrostatic charges can interfere with further processing and lead to quality problems.

This is exactly where the Mink web spreader roller plays a decisive role. Thanks to the defined alignment of the bristles, the material web is spread evenly from the centre towards the edges. This helps to smooth out creases and prevent web edges from curling. At the same time, the flexible bristle surface gently adapts to the material web and supports uniform and stable web guidance.

Another advantage is that the web spreader roll can optionally be equipped with electrically conductive bristles. This makes it possible to combine spreading and the dissipation of electrostatic charges in a single solution. This supports a smooth and reliable production process and, depending on the application, can reduce the need for additional measures to dissipate electrostatic charges.

The solution also offers advantages in terms of maintenance and flexibility. Thanks to its modular design, the brush covering can be replaced without having to replace the entire roller and thus reducing maintenance effort and costs. At the same time, the web spreader roller can be adapted to different material webs, web widths and installation situations.

Its range of applications extends far beyond polyethylene films. Mink web spreader rollers are suitable for a wide variety of material webs, including film, paper, nonwovens and textiles, and can be individually adapted to the respective application.

The use of Mink web spreader rollers at Bogucki Folie demonstrates how a specifically selected component can contribute to improving process reliability and product quality. For manufacturers dealing with creasing, unstable web guidance, curling web edges or electrostatic charges, the Mink web spreader roller offers an unbeatable solution – both for new production lines and for optimising existing production processes.
