The alliance
between Wipak and Comexi dates back to 2005 when the global group purchased its
first Comexi slitter. Nowadays, with these new acquisitions, the firm doubled
its confidence in Comexi. Three of the new S1 DT will be integrated with the
other Comexi’s slitters that the group has already working in its Walsrode
plant, in Germany, in order to complete the automation project in its slitting
section. The fourth slitter Comexi S1 DT will be installed in the Wipak Group
plant in Poland.
“They are
slitters completely automatic, with high added value, dedicated to the
conversion of flexible laminates and semi rigid materials such as the ones used
for the food packaging. Materials that only innovative enterprises like Wipak
develops”, explains Comexi’s Key Account Manager, Agustí Combis. In this sense,
Combis ensures that with this new agreement, Wipak puts in value Comexi’s
capacity to offer innovative solutions and its flexibility to adapt to any
requirement and improve clients’ competitiveness. Besides, Combis also
highlights that another Comexi’s slitter and rewinder, purchased earlier by the
group, has been recently delivered to Wipak Nastola.
The Comexi S1 DT slitter ensures excellent
results, both in quality and productivity, even in the most challenging jobs.
Is a top-of-the-range double turret slitting machine with regulating and
control elements that allows high production rates in the most demanding jobs
or jobs that have many output reels, such as those intended for the labels
market. It also handles easily thicker structures, aluminums, or non-woven
materials.
This slitter also
provides a real reading of the tension since it has independent motors for each
turret. Searching for quality does not mean compromising productivity, and that
is why this slitter provides high production rate thanks to the spectacular
acceleration ramps, which enable working with higher average speed and reduce downtimes.
In this sense, it is ergonomic
and easily operated thanks to its PC Touch-Panels that set the machine’s pace
and store production data. This slitter can be adapted to each client’s need
with several automation options such as automated reel unloading, splicing
tables, print mark counters and the Comexi Laser system that mark the
difference and multiplies the range of possibilities and applications.
