Precision, Repeatability Offered with New Slitter from Universal Converting Equipment

September 1, 2015

The Universal X6 slitting machine is a high-performance slitter designed for processing flexible materials. The X6 has a footprint considerably smaller than competing  machines, the company says. A typical specification includes digital web guiding, automatic knife setting (ComputaSlit), an additional tension zone through slitting, closed-loop rewind tension control, constant geometry contact rollers, automatic core alignment (ComputaCore), and a running speed of 600 meters per minute. The machine is designed to be simple to operate with a 22-inch touchscreen interface. A typical changeover – including setting 20-shear knives – can take less than two minutes, making the machine ideal for short-run work. The integrated drive and control system offers precision and repeatability with extensive diagnostics including dynamic circuit diagrams.
