mother rolls that go into the slitter rewinder, eliminat- ing the need to stop the slitter – and increasing the slitting efficiency and quality. Identifying defects in the web can be done either by a


fully automatic 100% inspection system, manually (using stroboscopic systems) or by entering multiple stop signals based upon the flag location. The machines are high speed, fully reversible and with the inclusion of splice table the operator can remove all defects greatly reducing waste and time. “These inspection machines complement our range


Bandera trialled a complete winding station before shipping it to a customer in Northern Europe


for barrier and CPP films; and, special winders for ETFE films, which demand a perfect, right-angled cut edge with no fold-back – and so are cut with a flying knife during a web standstill.


Inspection stations Atlas Converting Equipment of the UK launched a range of inspection rewinder machines to complement its Titan range of slitter rewinders at the recent ICE Europe exhibition in Germany.


The IR60, IR135, IR165 and RR165 inspection machines are designed to meet the market require- ments for different web widths and complement the range of Titan slitter rewinder machines to offer superior reliability, quality and productivity, says Atlas. The Titan series of inspection machines will unwind, inspect and rewind material from 60cm (24in) to 165cm (65in) width material to improve the quality of the


of Titan Slitter Rewinders and deliver enhanced slitter productivity and quality for our customers,” said Barrie Homewood, sales director for Titan products. “Real productivity improvements are seen when large diameter ‘clean rolls’ are supplied to the slitter rewinder.”


The IR135 & IR165 compact inspection machines can also be used to splice together smaller mother roll diameters and deliver a larger mother roll – which again increases slitting efficiency. In addition to these features, the RR165 with its over-


head web path can incorporate additional ‘valued added’ processes such as web laser perforation and scoring, and other web treatments. The range of Titan inspection machines can process laminates, film and metallised film.
