Rayven, a provider of laminating, coating and converting services, has installed a new Deacro Model C800A slitter in the company's manufacturing facility. The new slitter is a customized version of the model C800A specially outfitted to handle narrow slit widths ( 0.75" to 1.25") of silicon coated film release liners. The 63" wide Deacro brings Rayven's slitter count up to seven machines and adds to the company's converting capabilities.


In addition to increasing slitting capacity, the new C800A can produce much larger diameter rolls. The larger rolls have considerably more linear feet per roll. The longer rolls equate to less roll changes, which will increase Rayven's efficiencies and reduce overall costs.  


‘The sales growth of our “Any-Pak” release liners created extended lead times for narrow width products,’ commented Rick Mercado, director of sales and marketing at Rayven. ‘A third slitter was needed due to the near full capacity levels reached with our two current slitters. The addition of the Deacro machine with its superior speed and tension control will allow us to more than double our “Any-Pak” release liner capacity.’
