  • Magnetic roll
    Patent number: 9120301
    Abstract: A roll for supporting at least a first flexible printing, embossing, or sheet cutting die plate, the roll including a cylindrical body having a rotational axis and an outer circumferential surface, the cylindrical body being divided into segments; a first magnet receiving concavity and magnet combination emitting plate attaching magnetic flux at a first circumferential surface segment overlying a first cylindrical body segment; a second magnet receiving concavity and magnet combination, further emitting plate attaching magnetic flux at a second circumferential surface overlying a second cylindrical body segment; plate edge aligning pins connected operatively to the first cylindrical body segment; and segment positioning cam and socket combinations adapted for selectively positioning and repositioning both the first cylindrical body segment and the plate edge aligning pins with respect to the second cylindrical body segment.
