Film Materials We Can Process

 

 

BOPP and PET Films

BOPP and PET films are commonly converted into narrower rolls for packaging, printing, coating and laminating processes. Slitting and winding conditions are selected according to film thickness, web width and finished-roll requirements.

 

CPP, PE and PVC Films

These materials can differ in flexibility, thickness and winding behavior. Controlled web tension and suitable knife settings help maintain stable web movement and consistent finished-roll dimensions during continuous production.

 

Metallized and Laminated Films

Multi-layer and coated films require careful handling through the slitting and rewinding sections. The machine configuration can be reviewed according to material construction, surface characteristics and required finished-roll condition.

 

 

Film Slitting & Rewinding Process

Unwinding

The parent roll is loaded into the unwind section and fed into the machine under controlled tension. Roll diameter, core size and material characteristics determine the suitable unwind arrangement.

Web Guiding

The web guiding system maintains film alignment during machine operation. Stable web positioning helps keep slit widths and finished-roll edges within the required production range.

Slitting

The continuous web is divided into specified widths using a suitable slitting arrangement. Knife selection is based on film type, thickness, finished width and required edge condition.

Rewinding

Individual slit webs are wound into finished rolls with controlled winding conditions. Rewind diameter, core size and winding tension are set according to the final roll specification.

Key Features for Film Slitting

Controlled Web Tension
Film can stretch or deform when tension is not matched to its material properties. Controlled unwind and rewind tension helps maintain stable web movement as the roll diameter changes.


Consistent Slit Width
The slitting section is configured around the required finished widths. Accurate knife positioning supports repeatable dimensions across the production run and reduces variation between finished rolls.


Stable Roll Formation
Winding conditions affect roll hardness, edge alignment and finished-roll handling. The rewind arrangement is selected according to film properties, roll diameter and downstream processing requirements.


Suitable Slitting Methods
Razor, score and shear methods can be selected for different film structures and thickness ranges. The suitable method depends on the required edge condition and production process.

Film Slitting Applications

 

Flexible Packaging

Wide film rolls can be converted into specified widths for downstream packaging processes. Consistent slit dimensions and roll formation help prepare material for subsequent converting operations.

01

Printing & Lamination

Slit rolls can be prepared for printing, coating and laminating processes where finished width, edge condition and roll alignment must match the next production stage.

02

Label Materials

Narrow-width film rolls require controlled web tracking and accurate slit positioning. The slitting arrangement can be selected according to the required finished widths and roll dimensions.

03

Industrial Films

Protective, insulation and other industrial films can require different tension and winding conditions from packaging films. Machine configuration is reviewed according to the material and final roll specification.

04

Specialty Film Processing

Metallized and laminated films can be processed after reviewing their thickness, construction, surface characteristics and winding requirements.

How to Select a Film Slitting Machine

Film Material
Start with the exact material and film construction. These properties affect cutting behavior, web tension, winding conditions and the suitable slitting method.


Film Thickness
Film thickness influences web stability and cutting conditions. The required tension range and operating speed should be considered together with thickness.


Parent Roll Size
Provide maximum web width, roll diameter, roll weight and core size. These values determine the required unwind capacity and loading arrangement.


Finished Roll Requirements
Finished width, roll diameter, core size and the number of rolls required from each parent roll determine the slitting and rewinding configuration.


Production Speed
Target speed should be evaluated together with material thickness, web width and finished-roll requirements. The practical operating speed is based on stable processing of the specified material rather than speed alone.
