Automatic winding solutions for nonwovens and technical textiles

For over 40 years, we have delivered reliable and robust automatic winding technology to producers of nonwovens and technical textiles. Our equipment is designed for stable production, reduced waste, and easy operation. Automatic winding from CAMPEN gives you precise roll change, servo-controlled winding, and consistent tension control through your entire process. You benefit from high-speed automatic winding—whether you need in-line winding after web forming or off-line rewinding for quality control. We help technical managers and plant engineers achieve secure roll handling and automatic packaging. Explore our proven automatic winding solutions at www.artandthemachine.com/nonwoven.

Automatic winding solutions for continuous production

Our automatic winding portfolio includes centre-driven and surface-driven winders for a wide variety of web materials. These systems ensure continuous production, reliable splicing, and optimised roll builds. Servo drives and integrated tension control maintain web quality at all speeds, diameters, and weights.

We support both in-line automatic winding and off-line rewinding to match your production flow. You can select features such as automatic tube feeding, hot-melt start and tail fixing, and accumulator integration for uninterrupted operation. For converting, we offer slitting and rewinding options to deliver multiple clean, accurately cut rolls.

Key benefits of automatic winding

Fully automatic roll change helps you avoid stoppages and increase line efficiency.
Servo-controlled automatic winding ensures steady tension, improving product quality and cutting waste.
Option of centre-driven or surface-driven winders lets you suit your material type and roll geometry.
High-speed roll conversion reduces manual work and shortens changeover time.
Integrated packaging with automatic winding improves operator safety and increases throughput.
Automated roll handling helps prevent product damage and simplifies logistics.

Typical materials for our automatic winding systems include geotextiles, technical nonwovens, felts, spunlace, airlaid, fibreglass, artificial leather, and plastic films like polyethylene. For larger jobs, such as geotextile winding, we configure wider machines and reinforced mechanics to handle big diameters and roll weights.

Engineering expertise, machine quality, and production uptime

We build our automatic winding machines for reliability and long service life. Heavy-duty frames, precision drives, and straightforward controls make maintenance simple. Our tension control algorithms help you maintain stable production across all speed changes and roll sizes. Operators work with clear HMI panels and benefit from recipe management, alarms, and full production data for traceability.

Every feature on our automatic winding equipment supports better production. Web guiding systems keep edges straight, reducing trim waste. Automatic splice units deliver safe, repeatable joins between rolls. Fast-change chucks and shaft handling help you change quickly and lower risk of core damage. All guarding and safety systems comply with EU safety regulations.

What automatic winding means for your operation

Dependable performance reduces unplanned stops and scrap.
Accurate web tension helps reach thickness and weight goals.
Large-format automatic winding solutions support higher plant output and fewer roll changes.
Automatic packaging integration moves rolls seamlessly from winder to storage.
Energy-efficient servo drives cut power use per produced metre.

Off-line rewinding helps you inspect, slit, and repair rolls as needed. Our rewinders are designed for delicate nonwovens and tough, abrasive webs alike. We adapt nip settings and winding geometry to ensure tight rolls, precise edges, and solid cores.

Customer focus and industry knowledge

With decades of automatic winding experience in nonwovens and technical textiles, we guide each project from concept to commissioning. We begin with your requirements for speed, width, roll diameter, core size, and safety. Then, we define the solution—automatic winding and rewinding with servo-driven centre or surface control to ensure constant tension. Setups can be in-line or off-line and include automatic core feed, hot-melt fixation, and accumulator or packaging integration.

Every automatic winder is tailored to your process and layout. Modular machine options add functions such as slitting, edge trim removal, and dust control. Our control software streamlines recipe changeover and enables remote troubleshooting.

How CAMPEN works with you

Application studies and trials help confirm material behaviour before final design.
Mechanical and controls engineering focuses on robust, reliable operation.
Extensive factory acceptance testing ensures roll quality, splice performance, and fast changeovers.
Onsite installation, operator training, and ramp-up support get your team running quickly.
Comprehensive lifecycle services, spares, and upgrades keep your automatic winding equipment productive.

We support technical managers and plant owners seeking reliable output and efficient roll handling. Whether you process nonwovens, geosynthetics, or films, our automatic winding solutions focus on consistent rolls, quick changeovers, and smooth handling to storage.
