Universal X9 Update

The technology used in the Universal X9 slitter rewinder has been developed over many years. The closed loop tension control system ensures that the rewind tension control is precise as it can be. Data logging records set tensions and actual tensions so you have proof that your most valuable product - the finished rolls you send to your customer - have been wound to the correct tensions.

The X9 integrates a range of technologies to automate the following functions:

• Unwind tension control
• Guider eye positioning
• Shear knife positioning
• Rewind tension control
• Core positioning
  

Set up time is minimised and control over the quality of the finished product is maximised.

Universal have used this technology to develop its hot melt coaters and hot melt laminators. Precise control of tension and other machine conditions is vital when hot melt coating or hot melt laminating. All the technologies required to build a class leading slitting machine are incorporated into the hot melt adhesive coating systems.

Many of the technologies are also available as upgrades for existing machines. These include:

1. Computacore laser core alignment
2. ConverterGuide Digital 4 Web Guiding
3. Computaslit automatic knife positioning
4. Closed Loop Tension Control
5. Shaftless Unwind
6. Differential Rewind

Universal are moving the technology forward at a pace for those who have products that require the best.
