The Napkin Production Line is a flexible and scalable manufacturing system that is capable of converting rolls of raw paper into high-quality folded napkins consistently in terms of softness and strength, as well as appearance. The Napkin Production Line combines the processes of unwinding, filling, printing (optional), embossing, accurately folding, cutting, stacking, and packaging automatically into one synchronized line. A centralized control system coordinates the speed, tension, moisture content, and finishing settings for all processes, while numerous advanced sensors at each process monitor performance to reduce web breaks and mis-creases throughout the line.
The operator's panels provide clear indication of alarms, trends, and production goals, allowing for proactive maintenance and faster troubleshooting of problems. In addition to core packaging, the line can integrate downstream automation, such as tray stacking, wrapping, and palletizing, to extend automation to the line's full potential. Energy efficiency is also maximized with regenerative drives and closed-loop moisture control systems. The result is a reliable, low waste production environment capable of addressing variable demand and reducing lead times; providing custom product options for brand owners in a way compliant with the highest levels of hygiene and safety standards.
