21-2. Fusing Rollers and Web Roller
<Upper Fusing Roller>
•
A teflon-coated roller is used, which makes for improved fusing
performance and a reduced consumption of silicone oil. In addition, it
stands up well to high temperature and repels the adherence of melted
toner. It is so hard that it is resistant to wear and damage. This ensures
a longer life.
•
A conductive coating has been applied to the surface of the Upper
Fusing Roller, which neutralizes any charges and helps prevent the
production of offsets.
•
Further, silicone oil is supplied to the Upper Fusing Roller from the Web
Roller. This also prevents the production of offsets. The roller requires
only a minimum amount of silicone oil.
<Lower Fusing Roller>
•
An elastic silicone rubber is used for the Lower Fusing Roller, offering a
wider area of contact between the two rollers.
•
The silicone rubber is covered with a teflon tubing. This contributes to
preventing smear on the roller and, at the same time, reduces the
amount of silicone oil necessary for cleaning.
<Web Roller>
•
The Web Roller consists of a core pipe around which the Cleaning Web
impregnated with silicone oil is wound.
•
The Cleaning Web is fed off the Web Roller so that silicone oil is applied
to the surface of the Upper Fusing Roller. At the same time, this cleans
the surface of the Upper Fusing Roller.
