Hello, I go to make roller for my works.
I have a old chinese laminator 160cm, I take roll from this.
I have 2 air cylinder 80-125 for move roll up-down.
I have solenoid for control air presure, Roll move up-down by electric.
Want to have a PNEUMATIC-DIAGRAMS for control (If have some one) please send to Me! thank you, If no I can to do it, but is more time for me.
a few images from materials, later I upload real image from project.
My calculation for costs.......cc 1000 eur (except my old laminator - that cost was 950 eur)
step by step I show exactly cost of differently material.
- 2 cylinders + solenoid + power source + valve........110 eur
- old compressor 8bar.................................................130 eur

MY IDOL FOR CONSTRUCTION................ROLLOVER.
My roll will DC-ROLL 1635........1600mm x 3500mm

Nice, I have a similar set up but the air would be nice. Be good to figure out how to drop the roller evenly and be able to measure the pressure.

Great idea. Unfortunately, I have no pneumatic diagrams. Only find this link:
selfmade-roller.com | Online Shop for signmaking people
But, probably too expensive.
Thank you, Pneumatic diagram was done, but I want to make very cheap cost roller, that I don't want to buy a construction from expensive seller.
No I made frame for this roller, is very importand linear rail way (and must to be very cheap), I think in 2 week I can show same pictures from project.
