Martin Automatic refreshes LRD rewinder series

- LRD rewinders designed for sectors that need automatic transfer rewinders for continuous production, such as the label, flexible packaging and folding carton markets

 

- Various features upgraded to provide converters with ‘greatest versatility and value’ when handling paper, film, label stock, light paperboard and tube laminates

 

Martin Automatic has refreshed its offering to the label, flexible packaging and folding carton markets, with an LRD rewiner that can accommodate roll diameters up to 800mm as standard, with larger diameter models available on request.

 

As well as the capacity to handle wider roll diameters, the LRD series has been upgraded with operator controls via a touchscreen display that, in addition to high visibility and expanded diagnostics, includes recipe functions that allow operators to store and recall the winding parameters of repeat jobs.

 

The optional in-line slitter package has also been enhanced to offer lateral adjustment of the slitter and anvil roller assembly for quicker set-up, fine-tuning and changeover between

jobs, and the latest LRD offloads finished rolls automatically via one of several standard doffing ramp designs for full width, multiple ribbon or loosely-wound rolls. 

 

If the product rolls are small, or require special handling, an optional articulating arm (pictured on an LRD, top) automatically delivers finished rolls through the front of the unit for easy removal.

 

Martin Automatic said the enhanced LRD rewinders are designed for markets that need automatic transfer rewinders for continuous production. 

 

LRD rewinders are used in a variety of applications including paper, film, label stock, light paperboard and tube laminates.

 

Gavin Rittmeyer, Martin Automatic’s vice president of sales and marketing, said: ‘We’re known for designing simplicity, reliability and the most appropriate advanced technology into our equipment. 

 

‘The latest LRD model highlights how Martin Automatic continues to develop and enhance products that give converters and printers the greatest versatility and value for their investment.’
