Heidelberg SM / CD 102 Alcolor Pan Roller (Exchange)

The Heidelberg SM / CD 102 Alcolor Pan Roller is a precision-recovered exchange roller designed for use in the Alcolor continuous dampening system on the Heidelberg SM 102 and CD 102 offset printing presses. Part number 71.030.201F/03, the Alcolor Pan Roller sits in the dampening solution pan and transfers a controlled film of fountain solution to the metering roller, forming the critical first link in the continuous dampening chain. Precise control at the pan roller is essential for maintaining the proper water-to-ink balance required for clean, consistent offset printing.

A worn or damaged Alcolor Pan Roller can compromise your SM 102 or CD 102 dampening performance by delivering an uneven or excessive film of fountain solution, leading to problems such as ink emulsification, scumming, dot gain, and inconsistent print density. Replacing a worn pan roller with a precision-recovered unit restores proper dampening control, reduces ink-water balance corrections during the run, and helps achieve stable, repeatable print quality from sheet to sheet.

This Heidelberg SM / CD 102 Alcolor Pan Roller is supplied as an exchange unit. Return your worn core within 20 days to avoid additional charges. All exchange rollers are precision-ground and recovered to OEM specifications, ensuring a direct drop-in replacement with no press modification required.
