ABSTRACT:
A compact roller system including a housing for a plurality of disks, each independently supported within a support member having sides which partially envelop the external peripheries of the disk. The disks do not separate or dislodge from their corresponding support members, yet the disks are capable of rotating within their corresponding support members. Each disk/support member shifts radially within the housing to accommodate the varying contours of a workpiece surface. The disks, in combination with their corresponding support members, apply an adjustable, evenly distributed compaction force to the workpiece surface through internal pressurization of the housing with a compressed gas.
