Industry: BOPP Film Manufacturing
Region: South America
Production Line Width: 7.4 meters
Product: BOPP Packaging Film
A leading BOPP film manufacturer in South America was facing recurring challenges with the cooling section of its 7.4-meter production line. The existing chill rolls required frequent replacement due to surface wear, resulting in long procurement cycles, increased maintenance costs, and unplanned production interruptions.
The customer needed a reliable supplier capable of delivering high-quality chill rolls with shorter lead times while maintaining excellent cooling performance and long service life.
Our engineering team supplied a custom chrome-plated chill roll designed specifically for the customer’s BOPP production line.
Roll Type: Chrome-Plated Chill Roll
Roll Diameter: Ø450 mm
Application: High-speed BOPP Film Production
Surface Finish: Precision Mirror Chrome Plating
Features: Excellent wear resistance, superior corrosion protection, uniform cooling performance, and high dimensional accuracy.
In addition to premium manufacturing quality, our optimized production process enabled significantly shorter delivery times compared with the customer’s previous supplier, allowing the replacement roll to be installed quickly and minimizing production delays.
Following installation, the customer reported measurable improvements in both production efficiency and operating costs.
Over 60% Reduction in Roller Procurement Costs
The longer service life of our chrome-plated chill rolls significantly reduced replacement frequency, lowering total roller procurement costs by more than 60%.
Our shorter manufacturing lead time enabled the customer to receive replacement rolls much faster, reducing maintenance-related downtime and improving production planning.
The precision chrome-plated surface delivered excellent wear resistance and maintained stable cooling performance throughout extended production cycles, minimizing maintenance requirements.
With reliable cooling performance, fewer maintenance interruptions, and improved equipment availability, the customer achieved higher production efficiency and increased BOPP film output.
