Applications

Where our products are used on packaging, printing, paper, plastics and winding lines, and what to consider when choosing them.

On every roll-fed machine, material is unwound, processed and rewound. As the industry changes, so do the material, roll weight, line speed and tension requirements, which is why a different version of the same product group comes to the fore on each line.

In this section we outline roll handling on packaging, printing, paper and board, plastic film, and general winding and slitting lines. Each page explains where the air shaft, safety chuck, brake, tension control and web guiding come into play, and what to look for when making a selection. For an assessment specific to your line, get in touch through our contact page.

Packaging

Equipment that carries the roll safely from unwind to rewind on flexible packaging lines, unwinds it at the right tension and rewinds it cleanly.

Printing

In flexo and gravure printing, steady tension and a straight web path are preconditions for print quality, and unwind and rewind equipment shapes both.

Paper and Board

Equipment for carrying heavy, wide paper and board rolls safely, unwinding them under control and adapting one shaft to different core diameters.

Plastic Film and Extrusion

Equipment for low, stable tension on thin, stretchable plastic films, for clean winding and for reliable edge detection on transparent material.

Winding and Slitting Lines

Shafts, chucks, brakes and control equipment needed at the unwind and rewind of roll-fed lines such as slitting, laminating, profile wrapping and textile machines.
