Since the 1970s, CAMPEN Machinery A/S has supplied reliable and robust automatic roll slitting equipment to the nonwovens and technical textiles industry. With over 40 years of experience in slitting and winding, we help manufacturers achieve consistent roll quality, stable production, and optimised workflow. Our engineers understand the technical requirements of each application and adapt solutions to fit your production line, improving efficiency across a wide range of slitter/rewinder and converting needs. Trusted by leading producers, we are committed to maximising uptime, yield, and output consistency – whether your focus is on short runs or high-capacity batch processing.
Our automatic roll slitting equipment is engineered for high repeatability, neat edges, and minimal waste generation. Tight speed and tension control deliver optimal roll build-up, from the core to the outer diameter, protecting web integrity. Key features like centre-driven slitters and twin roll slitters help reduce downtime and maintain steady quality, even at high speeds. Typical slit widths of 40–100 mm are maintained with high precision, while flexible edge trim (30–50 mm) and cross cutting allow you to meet demanding packing standards.
Our Siemens S7 PLC with intuitive HMI enables recipe management, real-time web tension monitoring, and parameter lockout for secure operation. The three-knife slitting system ensures stable, low-dust cuts for nonwovens, films, and composite webs. Designed for wide format processing up to 5.1 m and heavy rolls up to 2,000 kg, our systems provide flexibility across diverse materials such as spunlace, airlaid, felts, geotextiles, geosynthetics, artificial leather, plastic films, polyethylene, and fibreglass.
Our automatic roll slitting equipment is available for both in-line slitting and off-line converting. We integrate shaftless unwinders, accumulators, and slitter/rewinder units to form a continuous solution matched to your plant layout and material flow. High-capacity slitting and winding allow for efficient heavy-roll handling and less manual intervention, which helps increase shift productivity and supports continuous operation.
In-line configurations synchronise slitting with upstream web forming and finishing, reducing unnecessary rewinds or storage steps. Off-line systems provide job change flexibility and ergonomic operator access, which are essential for cost-efficient SKU consolidation and optimal line balancing. CAMPEN’s Siemens S7 PLC-based automation links seamlessly to plant-level networks and MES, enabling reliable process control.
Each installation is customised to your process. We optimise web path design, drive specification, and automation according to your material – whether it is geosynthetics, felts, artificial leather, technical films, or construction textiles. Our equipment is designed to be easy to operate, supporting the needs of owner-managed companies and large manufacturing groups alike.
Every CAMPEN automatic roll slitting equipment line is engineered for operational safety, reliability, and ease of use. We implement comprehensive guarding, interlock systems, and clear access points to keep operators safe. The user-friendly HMI provides immediate system feedback, alarm alerts, and guided adjustments. Core replacement, knife changes, and finished roll handling are streamlined to shorten restarts and reduce the chance of operator error.
CAMPEN machinery is deployed globally by nonwoven and technical textile manufacturers. Our experienced team provides expert advice on web handling, knife systems, and tension settings. Where possible, we run tests with your materials and deliver step-by-step documented machine configurations. We support your operations throughout commissioning and training, while our service team provides fast spare part delivery and remote diagnostics.
Share your web materials, line specifications, and production targets.
