The machines used today for the production of paper and cardboard webs are very large, reaching up to 200 m in length at times. The paper web runs over numerous rolls which are supported by rolling bearings.

In the initial phase of creating paper the rolling bearings in a paper machine must meet extreme requirements: Moisture, very high temperatures, shaft deflections, high speeds and long running times. The technologies used in paper converting and printing operations often rely on bearings to achieve precise, accurate, and smooth performance. DYZV has developed a range specially to cater to this special demand which is used in many sections of the paper-making machines.
