A method and apparatus for a calendering system is provided to allow for
fine gauge adjustment of the product. The calender system has a first and
second roller each having a first and second end mounted in opposed end
supports. The end supports each have an inlet and an outlet in fluid
communication with one or more internal passages, wherein a heat transfer
medium may be circulated through the one or more internal passages. The
heat transfer medium may either heat or cool the internal passages of the
end supports, resulting in the respective increase or decrease in the
gauge of the product.
