Demanding tasks and applications require carefully-considered solutions. It is accepted that every machine is equipped with unwinding and winding stations suitable for the required performance. However, specialized winders are necessary for production using materials which are difficult to process, slow machines and low web tensions. These special designs include specialized cutting systems as well as individual adaptations for optimized winding.
In 2007 a new winder was commissioned. This equipment permits a minimal tension of 10 N (absolute) during the entire winding and change cycle.
Specialized cutting systems using an optimized cutting knife or cross cutters allow production with a wide variety of material strengths without conversion. . In this way we can continuously wind and reliably splice, for example, aluminum of 6 to 800 µ, composites of up to 2mm, plastic films and metal foils as well as paper and cardboard.
At present a turret winder for the PAK 600 which will allow flying splices at production speeds. We expect to deliver the first machines with the new turret winder by the end of 2010.
