GOEBEL, IMs and Rotomac introduces Slitting Rewinding Solutions at ICE Europe
31 January 2015
GOEBEL – Top Technology "Made in Germany"
At ICE Europe 2015, GOEBEL will be presenting its innovative, high-end slitter rewinder XTRASLIT 2. This machine has been setting new benchmarks in the highly-productive processing of metallised films, cigarette films, flexible packaging materials and sensitive papers with working widths of up to 3600 mm and material thicknesses of between 2 and 400 µm. Depending on the material, the system permits speeds of up to 1200 m/min.
Thanks to the modular machine concept, many different equipment variants can be configured according to customer requirements – from the economical basic model to specific custom designs. The machine's slitting variants are just as flexible, varying according to the material, such as thin or thick film, paper or laminated or compound materials. Thanks to its compact, integrated construction in the latest design, the XTRASLIT 2 provides maximum efficiency, perfect winding quality and a high level of occupational safety.
GOEBEL will also be showcasing its established rewinding technology for narrow slits, the RAPID D1. This GOEBEL model has its roots in the 1930s and has enjoyed great success and popularity ever since. Today, more than ever, the RAPID D1 model qualifies through its special narrow slit application. This unique GOEBEL slitting system, comprising of the arrangement of top and bottom cutter, spreader roller, and an extremely short web path from the unwind to the rewind section is integral to the RAPID D1’s long-term success. In combination with a printing line guide, this machine is able to slit special papers with a precision of down to +/-0,1mm along a printed line up to speeds of 800m/min. The rewind system of the RAPID D1 works with a single shaft, allowing for very simple loading and unloading.
IMS: Optimum Productivity for the Converting of Paper and Foil
Italy-based IMS will be showcasing two machines at ICE Europe. The IMS T2 is a very popular and traditional high level slitter model for the paper industry. This family of slitting machines with a single-shaft center-driven winding concept is equipped with an idle, lay-on roller. The T2 models may adapted to specific requirements with a large choice of upgrades for customers who need to reduce the involvement of labor and need to optimize productivity. The increased working speed of up to 1200 m/min and the maximum web width of up to 2m allows for outstanding levels of performance and productivity.
For the converting of aluminium foil, the K100 is the IMS converter of choice. The K100 allows the embossing of patterns on aluminum foil through a motorized steel grooved roller. The machine’s built eliminates any possibility for mechanical backlash. The maximum web width is 1300mm, with a maximum mechanical speed of up to 300m/min.
All IMS machines can be customized, providing high quality solutions for every customer’s needs, making IMS the international reference point for converting. Our sales representatives at ICE Europe will be happy to help with customization requests and provide detailed information.
Premium Embossing for Aluminium Foil by Rotomac
Rotomac’s versatile 145sG model converts aluminium foil from plain mother roll to embossed finished product in one continuous operation. This automatic rewinding machine produces rolls of micro-embossed aluminium foil, but also standard aluminium foil, plastic film, and baking paper rolls for household uses. In a single process, the 145sG transforms conventional smooth aluminium mother rolls into rolls of embossed foil. The micro-embossing unit is an integral part of the rewinding machine, being installed within the frame of the machine itself. The individual embossing rollers are pre-assembled into a modular unit that can easily and quickly be removed and replaced with one of a
different design, allowing a wide range of different patterns.
“We are greatly looking forward to this year’s ICE Europe. As it is the world’s leading exhibition for paper, film & foil converting, it’s the perfect chance for us and our colleagues at IMS and Rotomac to meet our customers and partners and present the latest product and company developments,” says Andreas Hollmann, CEO of GOEBEL Schneid- und Wickelsysteme.
GOEBEL, IMS, and Rotomac look forward to welcoming you at ICE Europe, hall A6, booth 266.
