    Advanced roll slitting and winding technology for high-quality production

    Custom roll slitting and rewinding for geotextiles and technical fabrics

    For over 40 years, we have delivered custom roll slitting and rewinding for geotextiles and technical fabrics to European and international producers. Our robust solutions equip production teams with reliable uptime, straightforward operation, and steadily high roll quality. Whether for new lines or upgrades, our experience covers both in-line and off-line integration. We focus on custom roll slitting and rewinding for geotextiles and technical fabrics, supporting every stage from fibre formation to finished rolls.

    Efficient solutions for technical textile roll conversion

    Technical fabrics and geotextiles require robust, high-capacity slitting and rewinding systems. CAMPEN’s equipment manages wide webs, heavy rolls, and strong fibres typical in the production of technical nonwovens, felts, spunlace, and geosynthetics. Our slitter rewinders are engineered for efficient handling of roll widths up to 5.1 metres and weights up to 2,000 kilograms, meeting industrial requirements for throughput and reliability.

    Production lines can integrate our equipment directly for in-line slitting, or use off-line converting for greater flexibility. Every system is built around your floor space, safety parameters, and output needs, so you get a configuration that matches your operation.

    • Select between twin roll or centre-driven slitters to match your web and core types.
    • Modular knife systems allow for typical slit widths of 40–100 mm, supporting edge trim management and dust reduction.
    • Tension-controlled winding provides consistent roll build-up and precise layer quality—even for thick or delicate technical fabrics.

    Main modules and unique technical features

    • Shaftless unwinders improve operator safety and speed up roll loading.
    • Accumulator units maintain continuous line speed during roll changes, reducing unplanned stops.
    • Modern PLC-controls (such as Siemens S7) with intuitive HMI interfaces make process management easy and reduce the risk of operator error.
    • Tension and speed controls are finely tuned to support stable material movement and protect the textile structure.
    • Automated roll handling reduces manual labour and increases repeatability.
    • Solutions are designed for demanding environments, able to handle wide and heavy technical rolls across a variety of applications.

    Automation and process control that protect roll quality

    Precise process control is critical when slitting and rewinding geotextiles and technical fabrics. Our automated systems maintain exact tension and speed, protecting fibres from stretching and helping you achieve correct roll profile and density every time.

    Features like edge trim, cross cutting, and recipe-based process setups simplify changeovers and help maintain consistent output, supporting stringent customer specifications and efficient downstream packaging.

    • Automated knife setting modules support accurate slit widths for specialised needs, such as filtration media and technical membranes.
    • Centre-wind systems safeguard core structure and control tension during the entire winding process.
    • Web threading solutions minimise downtime after breaks and let new rolls start up quickly.
    • Onboard diagnostics via the HMI help your operators solve issues fast, promoting high equipment availability.

    Safety is integrated from the design stage, with options for safe core handling, guarded machine zones, and space-efficient layouts for compact installations. Operators benefit from clear access, while maintenance time is kept to a minimum.

    Expert support for technical fabric production lines

    CAMPEN serves technical fabric and nonwoven manufacturers with reliable roll slitting and rewinding systems for geotextiles, felts, spunlace, technical films, and a wide range of engineered materials. We design for new lines or existing plant upgrades and support full plant integration with standard PLC systems and modular layouts.

    Installations are available for in-line use with upstream processes—such as carding, needlepunching, or laminating—or in stand-alone off-line configurations for batch conversion and packaging. Our team provides start-up support and practical training so your staff can maintain the highest operational standards.

    • Process more materials on fewer lines with wide-web and heavy-roll capability.
    • Robust controls and automation ensure easy operation and stable output.
    • Spare parts, technical assistance, and remote support keep your system running reliably.

    Material types and applications covered

    Our custom roll slitting and rewinding for geotextiles and technical fabrics supports a broad spectrum: geosynthetics, technical nonwovens, felts, fiberglass, airlaid, spunlace, faux leather, polyethylene and polymer films, filtration media, and construction rolls. Whether your focus is dust-free filtration rolls or large-scale civil engineering fabrics, we can help you achieve your production targets.
