Overview of Fabric Slitting Machine

Constructed for use in the textile and fabric converting field, the fabric slitting machine produces accurate, consistent strips from large to smaller widths automatically so that you can make programmable adjustments to the cut widths by making automatic adjustments of the knife and maintaining proper tension to create an efficient, high-quality product in a safe manner with minimal waste or down time. The slitting machine has a durable design and an easy to use HMI and has built in safety features and can accurately cut all types of materials, including knit, woven and non-woven fabrics, continuously at high speeds.

Advantages of Fabric Slitting Machine

Precise Cutting Accuracy

Advanced servo rewinds and knife assemblies provide the basis for achieving repeatable slit widths within tight tolerance ranges. In addition, tension control features of belt and fabric tensioner produce a consistent and even tension throughout the entire length of fabric to reduce any possibility of edge fraying and/or skew. Fabric thickness and speed are continuously monitored by a series of sensors that help maintain consistent operational stability at high output levels.

Efficient Changeovers

Quick changes in stand-up operations allow for material changes without extensive downtime. The system has programmed slitting widths and automatic knife adjustment to minimise time spent in setting up equipment, and centralised control allows for the coordination of the equipment throughout unwind, web feed and rewind operations. The ease of changing jobs for operators within minutes enables them to remain productive, while also increasing the overall productivity of the line.

Versatile Material Compatibility

Designed to manage knit, woven, and non-woven fabric; laminated & coated. Adjustable blade assemblies and tension profiles allow flexibility for a variety of fabric thicknesses and curl characteristics without loss of precision. Different roll diameters and widths can be used on the machine to address the needs of a wide range of production requirements.

Enhanced Automation and Safety

The PLC controller with a touchscreen interface makes operating the machine and troubleshooting simple. Automated edge alignment, trimming of waste, and alarm notifications reduce the amount of waste and downtime. The safety systems, guards, emergency stops, and safe-speed fault handling ensure the safety of operators while enabling the machine to run continuously.

Surgical Towel Folding Machine

Designed for high-volume fabric slitting, this apparatus provides an efficient, reliable approach for producing the desired slit widths from blue-tube to maximum width rolls. This machine has an unwinder and a rewinder that ensures a smooth tension with a combination of servo driving dancer (tensioning) units and dynamic braking systems. As a result, the machine prevents wrinkles from occurring or fabric from rolling up on the edges of the rolls, thus giving you an exceptional piece of machinery. The knife assemblies of this machine feature either reversible or fixed blade knife assembly configurations that are supported by auto-adjusting knife gap (knives to material) and blade wear compensating (knives throughout life of the blades) to provide for consistent accuracy over a long production run. To aid in the slitting of challenging, and often, distorted fabric types, this machine's multi-zone temperature and humidity tolerance rating drives the project with minimal distortion. This fabric slitting machine can handle many different types of textiles, including knit, woven, laminated, and coated types. Additionally, this machine has adjustable nip pressure and edge guide sensors so that the end result is a clean-cut piece of fabric. In order to allow for rapid set-up and recipe storage (to produce specific fabric types) and fault tracing (to isolate problems/repairs), this machine comes equipped with an integrated PLC (programmable logic controller) and touch screen based HMI (human-machine interface) that allow for remote diagnostics. Included with this machine is a series of safety interlocks, guards, and emergency stops that protect operators using the machine. Due to the ease of maintenance, modular construction, and their scalability features, the fabric slitting machine will be flexible enough to accommodate the trends in width and speeds of fabrics, as they both continue to evolve.The fabric slitting machine is designed for busy factories that need to create narrow to wide rolls of fabric (from ribbons to master rolls) to meet the demands of today’s fast-paced textile industry. The machine includes an unwinder and rewinder with servo-driven dancers and dynamic braking systems to control tension and help prevent the fabric from moving around, wrinkling, and rolling up at the edges. The machine's knife assemblies allow you to use either a reversible or a fixed blade for each knife assembly. The machine automatically adjusts the blade gap depending on how much wear occurs to the blades so that the blades stay aligned properly through long production runs. The multi-sensor temperature and humidity tolerant drives will help eliminate distortion in your fabrics when they are being processed through the machine. The machine will handle all types of fabric from knit to woven to laminated or coated and will provide for clean cut edges using the adjustable nip pressure and edge-guide sensor systems. The machine has an integrated PLC and touch-screen HMI for easy set-up and recipe storage along with remote diagnostic capability for fault tracing. The machine's safety interlocks, guards, and emergency stop features provide protection for the operator. It also provides ease of maintenance with plenty of access, modular components, and scalability for future growth of your business.

F&Q About Fabric Slitting Machine

What fabrics can this machine slit?

The system supports handling wovens, knits, and coated fabrics as well as laminates. The adjustable knife and tension settings allow for various thicknesses and grammages of materials to be consumed without losing accuracy from production to production.
The system does a variety of slit widths from narrow strips up to full-width master rolls. It can adjust based on a recipe so any precise mid-run adjustments have no effect on tension or edges. It's a high-volume operation that maintains the same high level of quality.
A properly configured slit line has an adjustable speed (based on the characteristics of the material) and an adjustable length that allows for modification of speeds for both the length and the width of the input material. Productivity of slitting line configurations generally ranges from medium to high depending on automatic tension control, which ensures consistent output during setup/reel change operations.
Guards, emergency stops, interlocks and safe speed fault protection will be included in the machine. The HMI will display faults and reminders to the operator. Automatic shutoff’s on overload will protect the operator from injury and also help to prevent accidents while performing routine maintenance or servicing the equipment.
