GOEBEL KPW 3 – a fully automatic slitter rewinder

At the world's leading trade fair for the industry, drupa 2012, GOEBEL Schneid- und Wickelsysteme GmbH presents the fully automatic slitter rewinder GOEBEL KPW3. Due to the high level of automation, this two-drum winder is ideally suitable for the economic production of cash register, ATM and other small rolls.

The machine processes coated, uncoated and thermal papers up to a working width of 1600 mm and at a speed of up to 600 m/min. The minimum slitting width, depending on the equipment version, is 37 mm. The complete production process – from unwinding of the material to the packaging of the finished rolls – runs fully automatically.

The KPW3 has a very fast responsive web tension control; it ensures optimal tension of the paper throughout the entire winding process. The spreader roller before the slitting unit ensures wrinkle-free feeding of the paper web and perfect finished roll separation. After reaching the pre-set paper length, the paper is automatically cut by a cross-cutter, before an automatic gluing system seals the tails of the rolls. The rolls are then transported into the packaging unit. A core loader simultaneously charges the rewind shaft with new cores before the next winding cycle starts.

After the separating and stamping station, the finished rolls are fed onto a packaging line. This consists of a film wrapping machine, shrink tunnel and a packaging table. The automatic winder can produce 20,000 finished rolls (80 x 80 mm) during an 8-hour shift.

The GOEBEL KPW3 two-drum winder offers an intelligent complete solution which guarantees efficiency and economy in the production of small rolls.
