ISO 6177:1986 PDF

Overview

ISO 6177:1986 - Textile machinery - Cloth rollers - Terminology and main dimensions - defines basic terminology, main geometric dimensions and designation rules for cloth rollers used to wind fabrics and to feed downstream textile machines. This second edition updates clause 3.2 from the 1983 edition and provides standardized symbols, dimensional parameters and an example of how to designate rollers for procurement, design and documentation.

Key topics

• Terminology and symbols: standardizes names and symbols for key features (outside diameter, shaft/mandrel diameters, pitch circle diameter for driving holes, driving-hole diameter and depth, boss/collar width and lengths, collar-to-collar distance, shaft length).
• Main dimensions: gives preferred nominal outside diameters (examples shown include 100, 120, 150 mm) and rules for lengths and dimensional steps (length increments and provisions for larger diameters). For diameters above 150 mm the standard refers users to relevant barrel dimensions in other textile standards.
• Designation format: specifies the sequence of information required in a roller designation: name, ISO reference, roller type (e.g., Type A, Type B), outside diameter, roller length, and collar-to-collar distance (type A). Example: “Rouleau magasin ISO 6177 - A - 100 x 2 000 x 2 010”.
• Specification details to declare: construction and end-piece type (Type A or B), material to be wound, surface finish or covering (e.g., felt, rubber), groove type, and for Type B the square shaft section if other than the standard 50 × 50 mm.
• Multilingual terms: defines English, French and Russian official ISO terms and includes German equivalents for committee use (official ISO terms remain the three ISO languages).

Applications

ISO 6177 is directly useful for:

• Textile machinery manufacturers designing winding and feeding rollers
• Roller and shaft fabricators producing standard cloth rollers
• Machine designers and OEMs specifying component interfaces
• Procurement and QA teams ensuring interchangeability and correct ordering
• Maintenance engineers replacing rollers with correct dimensions and designations

Keywords: ISO 6177, cloth rollers, textile machinery, roller dimensions, roller designation, cloth roller terminology.

Related standards

The standard cross-references and complements other textile equipment standards such as:

• ISO 5241 (ensouples / winding packages)
• ISO 8116-2 (barrel dimensions for beams)
• Other ISO textile machinery standards referenced in the document for larger-diameter rollers and detailed barrel dimensions

For specific manufacturing tolerances or expanded dimensional tables consult the referenced ISO documents and the current editions.
