PREVENTING PRODUCT DAMAGE

You can move all the pulp and paper products you want, but if damage occurs during the process, it can prove to be very costly to handlers and their customers. Cascade attachments are engineered down to last detail to reduce the risk of product damage, and we offer a full suite of damage reduction accessories that can optimize your workflow and help transport product quickly and securely from point A to point B.

Hydraulic Force Control (HFC) and Adaptive Force Control (AFC) are two of Cascade's available optionsto ensure proper paper roll handling, reduce damage and increase productivity. HFC automatically controls clamp force in proportion to the weight of the load. AFC uses a preprogrammed ratio based on roll weight and paper type to set optimal clamp force each time a roll is grabbed, without demanding additional driver input. By removing the guesswork from driver operation, these powerful tools reduce the possibility of damaging a roll due to incorrect clamp force.

The innovative HFC+™, Cascade's latest innovative accessory for paper roll handling, combines the efficiency of HFC™ with a paper roll clamp dual cylinder system. This enables a single roll clamp to automatically apply the ideal clamp force for different size ranges of paper rolls. HFC+™ allows for incredible versatility in paper roll handling, as well as decreased equipment costs and downtime.

Paper rolls come in a wide variety of shapes, sizes, and types of material, and Cascade products offer you the versatility to easily adapt to each one. In addition to damage reduction accessories, we offer a variety of specialized paper roll clampsand a wide range of clamp padsfor handling all kinds of paper. No matter if you're working with newsprint, linerboard, tissue, fine paper or coated stock, we have options to help you customize the solution.
