Between October 19 – 26, plastics and rubber professionals as well as businesses are gathering at K in Düsseldorf, Germany, to discover the industry’s newest solutions and state-of-the-art technologies. At the world’s number one trade fair for plastics and rubber, GOEBEL IMS will be presenting its newest high performing slitter rewinders: “We are very proud to introduce our latest innovation for film producing and converting businesses. Our engineers have developed another state-of-the-art slitter rewinder that fulfills the industry’s latest demands for power and precision.”, says Harald Knechtel, Managing Director. The new primary slitter series is suitable for converting special industrial applications such as capacitor films, battery separator films or thick films for industrial or optical applications. Available either as a basic machine or with advanced technical functions and automation technology, the new primary slitter processes widths between 4,000 mm and 7,500 mm and, thus, offers maximum flexibility while guaranteeing highest quality.
GOEBEL IMS’ decades of experience in mechanical engineering will be impressively displayed at booth 3B73. A vintage slitter rewinder that was sold in 1939 and was used to produce films until 2016, will be shown to the public. True to the motto “The House of Slitting and Winding”, GOEBEL IMS showcases their long-standing expertise in film industry and special applications and creates a bridge between past and future, where smart production lines help to increase efficiency. With its MONOSLIT series and the XTRASLIT 2, GOEBEL IMS sets standards in film converting. All slitter rewinders combine high performance and top quality with cutting-edge technology. At K show, GOEBEL IMS presents the newly designed MONOSLIT series, comprising the MONOSLIT with a working width of up to 9,000 mm and the MONOSLIT GIANT with a 12,000 mm working width. Both slitter rewinders are designed for converting a broad spectrum of films, ranging from BOPP materials for the MONOSLIT GIANT to BOPP, BOPET, OPP, CPP, BOPA, BOPS and other special films. Packaging, capacitor, battery separator and optical films with film thicknesses between 0.5 and 500 μm can be converted with the MONOSLIT series at a speed of up to 1,500 m/min, featuring an extremely smooth run at maximum speed while guaranteeing outstanding quality of the end product. The new design allows for an unwinding diameter of up to 1,800 mm and a rewinding diameter of up to 1,550 mm, with winding stations allowing for a maximum finished roll weight of up to 5,000 kg.
Since 2014, GOEBEL IMS’ high-end slitter rewinder XTRASLIT 2 sets new benchmarks in the highly productive processing of films and flexible packaging materials. It is designed for a working width of up to 3,600 mm and can convert material thicknesses between 2 and 400 μm. Throughout the process, the system permits speeds of up to 1,200 m/min, depending on the material. The newly developed XTRASLIT 2 is a universal machine and, thanks to its design concept, allows for comprehensive adjustments and extensions for special applications, e.g. polyester films for optical fields. The adaption of technical features – for example the slitting and winding systems – ensure a scratch-free surface to fulfill customer-specific requirements and provide maximum performance and sustainable value.
As one of the preferred suppliers of innovative slitting and winding solutions for manufacturers and converters of film industry, GOEBEL IMS continuously strives to offer maximum efficiency, high production speeds and superior slitting and winding quality to its customers.
