    Advanced roll slitting and winding technology for high-quality production

    automatic short roll winder for technical industries

    For over four decades, CAMPEN Machinery A/S has delivered reliable winding technology to technical industries across Europe and worldwide. Our automatic short roll winder is robust, precise, and engineered to keep your production efficient and safe. Every system is designed and built in Denmark, tailored to your application, process, and production objectives. With a focus on reducing material waste and simplifying operator tasks, our solutions guarantee consistent roll quality for various advanced materials. Whether your operation requires in-line winding or off-line rewinding, our automatic short roll winder adapts to your facility layout and future growth.

    How automatic short roll winders optimise your production

    CAMPEN’s automatic short roll winders are developed for demanding lines processing nonwoven, technical textiles, and geotextiles. Every machine features servo-controlled tension management, safeguarding your material throughout acceleration, winding, and roll separation. This ensures stable web tension, uniform roll build, and accurate roll diameters, especially when working with thin or sensitive webs. Our designs provide the flexibility to run as centre-driven, surface, or combination winders. Automatic roll change functionality is included as standard, reducing operator intervention and downtime while improving overall line safety. The resultant rolls are tightly wound and ready for downstream handling and automated packaging.

    Production advantages with advanced winding solutions

    • Automatic roll change minimises production interruptions and optimises workforce efficiency.
    • Servo-driven tension control supports high-quality output and dependable web management during lane changes and high-speed conversion.
    • Accurate roll diameter monitoring helps achieve tight, repeatable rolls, critical for nonwoven and geotextile processing.
    • Integrated packaging and conveying systems streamline logistics and enhance operator ergonomics.
    • High-speed winding boosts throughput, increasing overall equipment effectiveness (OEE).
    • Safe roll change sequences and web accumulators support quick, injury-free changeovers.

    Every automatic short roll winder is configured for your exact roll width and application—handling everything from spunlace fabric to tough geosynthetics or specialised film. Operator interfaces are designed for ease of use: recipes can be set and run with confidence, while the PLC-driven system selects the best winding program for each product specification.

    Automation and flexibility for diverse winding lines

    Production facilities differ in workflow and technical requirements. CAMPEN provides automatic short roll winders suitable for integration just after web forming, bonding, or finishing lines as well as off-line solutions for slitting, rewinding, and batch consolidation. Automation features can include fully automatic tube insertion, hot-melt tail fixation, printed labelling for traceability, and seamless partnership with factory packaging and accumulator systems. This integration delivers an efficient, consolidated end-of-line process for busy technical textile and nonwoven plants.

    Winder customisation and project options

    • Selectable centre-driven or surface winding for optimal roll build and edge profile, matching web properties and application needs.
    • In-line systems reduce manual handling and contamination risk for sensitive materials.
    • Off-line rewinding with slitting enables order and batch management with minimal waste.
    • Automated roll handling reduces physical tasks and prevents common damage during logistics.
    • Integrated, automated packaging keeps your supply chain efficient and throughput high.
    • Recipe management speeds up format changes and supports repeatable, high-quality production.

    Our winders are built for a large range of roll widths and diameters encountered on nonwoven and technical textile lines. Sturdy steel frames and advanced, energy-efficient drives deliver long service life and consistent output. The open architecture of controls ensures easy service and future upgrades. Remote diagnostics and straightforward troubleshooting support enable your maintenance and production teams to resolve issues quickly, protecting your productivity.
