The Converter Guide 4 Digital Web Guider is an edge, line and broken line guider designed specifically for the converting industry. It is ideal for installing on new equipment or replacing old or obsolete guiders on existing equipment. The system can be easily and quickly installed by most engineers and fitters. Many web guiding systems …
The automatic knife positioning module fits into converting equipment requiring the addition of an automatic slitting section. Knife setup can represent a significant proportion of slitting machine downtime, therefore the addition of this module can have a major affect on productivity, especially on machines doing frequent setups or large quantity of slits. We offer automatic …
COMPUTACORE is designed to fit onto a range of slitting and winding equipment. The slit widths are entered into the touch screen interface and the system computes the required core positions, projecting a laser line around the shaft to indicate the required position of the edge of the core on the slitter / winder. Either …
COMPUTACUT VTX is a new generation of back gauge controllers designed to suit all sizes and makes of paper cutters and guillotines. The units quickly and easily replace existing manual or old automatic systems on existing equipment. The programmable units combine ease of use, reliability and a range of advanced features to simplify the process …
Universal Converting Equipment is able to offer a range of systems to remove waste edge trim from slitting machine and other machines. Efficient removal of edge and centre trims is vital to the good operation of slitting and winding machines. Accurate tension control is required to prevent snapping of the narrow waste trims as they …
We have developed a full differential shaft system to overcome the problems on slitting machines associated with gauge variation across a web. The slitter rewind shaft is filled with a complete set of differential chucks so there is no need to position individual chucks each time the slit pattern changes. The Universal chucks grip the …
Most types of differential shaft systems rely on friction transferring a controlled torque from the rewind shaft to the core chucks holding the rolls of material. Older systems use oiled felt washers which need frequent replacement and re-oiling. These can now be replaced with longer lasting plastic washers with known friction characteristics. The higher the …
Universal Converting Equipment a range of systems to automate the operation of slitting and winding equipment. They have all been designed to remove set up time, increase the productivity of the machine and ensure quality product is produced consistently. Although the systems can be used independently, they can also be integrated together to fully automate …
Many older machines can be refurbished to return them to their original condition raising product quality and production efficiency. New technology can also been introduced such as AC vector drives and closed loop tension control. The cost of refurbishment can be significantly less than the cost of a new machine. Universal can offer a complete …
Precise tension control is vital to ensure the quality of wound rolls of material. Slitting, winding, coating, laminating and embossing all require accurate tension control systems. Universal Converting Equipment developed closed loop tension control systems to incorporate into their machines. These systems are now available to upgrade other machine types. All our systems rely on …
We manufacture a range of unwinds and rewinds of various widths and diameters. Information is available on request.
Examples of the type of upgrade available are given below: Cameron Two Drum Winder – Machine completely stripped and repainted. All bearings changed. Motors refurbished New digital drive and control system installed New slitting section installed Digital rider roll control system added Major pneumatic and hydraulic components replaced New safety system added to conform to …
