Atlas launches CW technology platform

Atlas Converting Equipment will launch its new CW technology platform for primary and secondary slitter rewinders for film and flexible materials at Chinaplas 2012 in Shanghai, China from April 18-21.

The new CW technology platform introduces the next generation of more compact film slitting equipment from Atlas in web widths from 2.5 to 10.4 meters (98-410 in) and is claimed to deliver higher efficiency, increased productivity and reliability, higher quality rewind reels, reduced noise levels and more effective, operator-friendly control systems.

This latest Atlas technology also features wireless rewind arm positioning, automatic knife positioning direct drive web path rollers and running speeds of up to 1,500 m/min (4,920 ft/min) with more precise web tension control. Electrical cabinets are now fully integrated in to the machine to reduce the space required for installation with ‘under floor’ service trenches also no longer required.
