A.Celli Nonwovens’ latest rewinding technology Tandem is an additional rewinder, external to the line, which allows operators to manage particular needs as far as volume, diameter and cutting formats while at the same time guaranteeing extra capacity during peaks in production. The machine's customizable, plug-and-play design is perfectly adaptable and compatible with any standard rewinding system or complete line for both tissue and nonwovens, according to the company.
Optima’s new Optima LS Stacker processes up to 1600 units per minute and forwards them in stacks of up to 100 units/min to the downstream packaging machines. The company is touting this technology, considering the weight of the bundled bed liners, incontinence products or other nonwoven stacks to be transported through the machine – a maximum of 5kg per bundled stack. Increased flexibility is a further advantage of the new system.
Aurizon Ultrasonics has introduced its patented process of attaching elastic strands to nonwovens, eliminating the costs and issues associated with adhesives.
