Calendering covers two distinct types of processes: Film calendering, for the production of thick sheets (from 300 μm to a few millimeters), typically for PVC or elastomeric compounds. Most calendering machines contain more than two rolls (up to five in some cases) with a controlled temperature close to the temperature of the polymer.
