Typical applications for these machines are slitting and rewinding BOPP (orientated polypropylene), PET (polyester), LDPE, HDPE, Nylon, polyurethane, paper, aluminium foil, EVOH and laminates of these materials. These are predominantly used as flexible packaging materials but can also be used for medical and pharmaceutical products, label stock, self adhesive tapes, paper products and a wide range of other applications. We use our wide experience to optimise the machines for slitting non-woven materials, rubber, aluminium and nickel foil and other specialised materials.
