Pulp <strong>and</strong> Paper Manufacturing Saw Mill<br />
Problem:<br />
Steel rolls used to convey lumber would become slippery when wet. The conveying of lumber <strong>and</strong><br />
overall manufacturing process would slow considerably in wet operating conditions.<br />
Solution:<br />
Steel rolls were roughened using a grinder <strong>and</strong> wire wheel attachment. Following roughening complete<br />
coating areas were chemically cleaned using Cleaner Blend 300. Floor Grip epoxy component was<br />
mixed <strong>and</strong> applied to a thickness of 16 mils, using a paint brush. Floor Grip silicon carbide granules<br />
were sprinkled using a spaghetti strainer/ seed sower. Floor Grip silicon carbide granule were pressed<br />
into the epoxy mixture by “back rolling” using a 1/8” nap paint roller. Floor Grip provided an slip<br />
resistant coating improving the process of conveying limber in wet operating conditions.
