What Is a Paper Towel Dispenser?
A paper towel dispenser is a device designed to automatically dispense paper towels. It typically consists of a roll axis, usually made of plastic, and a metal cutter that cuts the paper towel to a consistent length. As the axis rotates, the paper towel is pulled out and then automatically cut by the cutter to a predetermined length.
These dispensers are commonly used in various settings like bathrooms, kitchens, factories, and offices. There are two main types: manual and automatic. Manual dispensers require users to manually pull and cut the paper towel, whereas automatic dispensers use sensors to detect hand motion and cut the paper towel automatically.
Key benefits of using paper towel dispensers include hygienic dispensing and the conservation of paper towel usage. It’s important to use paper towels of appropriate size and thickness and to regularly clean the cutting area to ensure smooth operation and hygiene.
