Mount Hope, a leading brand of Xerium Technologies, Inc., has been a leader in bowed roll technologies since 1941. We use advanced technology to create a low-torque, high-performance bowed roll, automatic lubrication, and lower energy consumption. Mount Hope bowed rolls use the Guardian continuous monitoring system to ensure its web or sheet consistently remains under proper tension.
Mount Hope bowed rolls provide the smoothness, sheet control and fabric longevity that allows papermakers to continue their record-breaking increases in productivity. A complete line of Mount Hope bowed rolls help manufacturers of film, foil, textiles and non-woven products, as well as printers and converters reduce rejects and improve efficiency through a reduction in wrinkles, calender cuts, and uneven winding.
As the most respected name in bowed roll solutions, Mount Hope offers the most complete product line: the Fixed Bow, the operator-controlled VARI-BOW, and the MULTI-BOW automatic on-the-fly adjustment system. Mount Hope even has solutions for extreme applications, such as the steel surfaced METROL, the HTA liquid cooled roll, and custom sleeves for the most demanding applications. 
On modern high-speed machine applications, the bowed roll sleeve is a critical performance item. Stowe Woodward, the world leader in roll covering technology and a sister company of Mount Hope, provides the latest in sleeve compounds such as the XL-2000 sleeve with the high durability of composite material technology.
Mount Hope and Stowe Woodward manufacture in the United States, Europe and South America with other operations worldwide.
