Unwind Machines

During slitting, having control of the unwinding process can be just as important as having control of your rewinding process. The unwind modules shown here were built for a customer who was looking to upgrade and improve the unwinding segment of their current slitting process. These modules were built and integrated into current slitting lines and added the capability to increase roll width, diameter, and roll weight. With a +/- 5.0″ edge guiding system, these modules have improved safety, minimized waste, and increased manufacturing capacity on several currently operating slitting lines.
