Spanish label converter Sinel Systems has ordered an MBS automatic butt splicer and STR automatic turret rewind from Martin Automatic.
Designed to run pressure sensitive labelstock and transparent non extensible BOPP and PE filmic substrates, the Martin equipment will be installed in June 2007. It will be used to improve productivity and profitability on one of Sinel’s Gallus EM 340 flexo label lines. The MBS unit includes an inertia compensated festoon, a patented splice to make non overlapping butt splices, and two cantilevered unwind positions with a lift and load roll loading system. All the controls are mounted within the equipment, allowing automatic unwinding, splicing, and tension control.
At the delivery, the STR turret rewind is specified to operate at speeds up to 100 m/min. The system consists of an inertia compensated festoon, a web guide and a two-position cantilevered rewind in a space saving turret design.
