Welcome to EXTREME Converting, LLC. The Extreme Way Of Converting Business.

​

With this part, you will find all the answers to your problems. With over 25 years of experience, we have gone beyond to apply sophisticated and innovative engineering to solve most of your friction ring problems.

​

• Problem: Friction rings cannot be used efficiently in cardboard core types, especially in used cardboard cores.

• Solution: In our standard 3" friction rings, 7 mm steel balls are used. When the friction rings are charged, the outer diameter is 80 mm. For this reason, it provides a much better grip on the inner diameter of the core and can easily be grasped even on worn cores.

​

• Problem: We can't get enough differential movement from the friction rings

• Solution: The inner diameter surfaces of our friction rings are Ra 0.4, therefore, when it starts to move on the shaft, optimum differential motion occurs between the inner surface of the friction rings and the outer surface of the shaft.

​

• Problem: Friction rings get very hot during operation

• Solution: Our friction rings provide optimum differential motion without overheating under the following operating conditions
  1- Pulling force: It should be 30-40 NM.
  2- The air pressure applied in the shaft should start with 3 bars and end with 6 bars.
  3- The felt strips on the shafts should be lubricated at certain intervals with the lubricating spray we recommend.
  4- The operator end of the shaft and the driving part must be in the same center, there should be no planarity problem in the shaft.
  5- The outer diameter of the shaft and the inner diameter of the ring, diameter tolerances must be appropriate.

​

• Problem: The slots of the balls in the friction rings distort over time and compress the balls.

• Solution: The operator should not put the core on the shaft or remove the core without bringing the friction rings to the fully unlocked position.

​

• Problem: Leaf springs in friction rings lose their properties over time.

• Solution: When the friction rings are subjected to excessive load beyond their capacity, the springs lose their properties over time, as the operating capacity of the springs is exceeded, so excessive load should not be wound out of the capacity.​

​

• Problem: We cannot supply friction rings in a very short time. We wait an average of 4-5 weeks for our orders to be produced.

• Solution: We stock standard widths of 3" and 6" Friction rings and when you place your order, will manage all the remaining processes and will deliver your products to you within 1-3 business days.

​

• Problem: I cannot find non-standard products in the market

• Solution: With our qualified and experienced engineering structure, we can make all kinds of friction rings for all our customers without the minimum order quantity.

​

• Problem: I can't find the shaft manufacturer for the friction rings

• Solution: With our team that has been serving the converting industry for more than 20 years, we can easily produce the friction shaft you want by applying sophisticated engineering, and we can also supply spare parts.

​

• Problem: I also pay the shipping cost for my orders.

• Solution: In your trade with us, your order is delivered to your door, and you do not pay shipping costs.

​

• Problem: Communication problems experienced in the services provided during the ordering process or after the purchase.

• Solution: The most important thing for us is that our products and along with our service quality are consistently satisfactory after establishing a high level of contact with our customers. For this reason, our company phones are organized as mobile phones so that you can contact us 24 Hours on weekdays and weekends, you can call us on our mobile phones 24 Hours for any subject you want, whenever you want us to assist you.

​

• Problem: The suppliers whose products we purchase do not negotiate with us about their products after the sale.

• Solution: To receive feedback from our customers about our products, to enable them to learn more about our products, to be informed about the terms of use and technically, we organize visits to our customers with whom we work at regular intervals and provide on-site training.

​

• Problem: The supplier we work with always sells at its own standards, so we cannot be competitive in some of our special offers from our own customers.

• Solution: At Extreme Converting, we work not only as a supplier to our customers, but also as a global solution partner, so we provide free R&D services to our customers and support them in all their projects, and we set the standards as a team together with our customers in special projects.

​

• Problem: The suppliers we are currently working with have not renewed themselves for a long time, they did not take corrective and preventive actions despite our feedback.

• Solution: At Extreme Converting, supplier management, customer management, product quality processes management, and global trade regulations management are applied continuously and regularly in our company. As a requirement of these quality management processes, our customers' feedback on our products is requested at certain periods.

​

• Problem: I would like to buy a big amount of friction rings with different types or sizes but I do not have any stock area and I do not want to make full payment for them.

• Solution: When you place an order with us, you can receive your entire order in a single shipment or you can receive it in the form of a partial shipment in the months you want, this service is completely free for you to support you in your work. To benefit from our service, it will be sufficient to open a bulk order and pay 50% of this order in advance. Or, if you give us a purchase-guaranteed forecast, you can also benefit from this service.

​

• Problem: In the friction ring market, I don't find a producer which can make any type of non-standard friction rings. 

• Solution: With our innovative and expert engineering knowledge, we can manufacture any type and any size of friction ring you need with high precision and stock your large orders for you, with no minimum order quantity.
  We can manufacture non-standard friction rings from steel, aluminum, PET, and Delrin raw materials and apply many coating methods in addition, if you share information about the application areas, we can recommend the most suitable friction ring types by doing R&D.
