Robust solutions for precision slitting of fiberglass and geosynthetics

For over 40 years, CAMPEN Machinery A/S has delivered robust systems for precision slitting of fiberglass and geosynthetics. Our reliable slitting and winding equipment is engineered for stable production, consistent roll quality, and safe operation in challenging industrial applications. The precision slitting of fiberglass and geosynthetics demands control over abrasive fibres, varying grammages, and wide webs. We help you reduce downtime, control waste, and achieve quality targets every shift with our solution-driven approach.

Industrial impacts of accurate slitting of fiberglass and geosynthetics

Fiberglass and geosynthetics need careful handling during slitting operations. Inadequate slitting can cause frayed edges, loose particles, and deformities in rolls, leading to scrap and production stops. CAMPEN’s systems address these challenges by maintaining straight edges and uniform rolls. We achieve this through exact web tension and speed control, whether you process spunbond nonwovens, glass fibre mats, technical textiles, or composite fabrics. This directly supports clean lamination, efficient packaging, and easier installation.

• Advanced tension and speed control systems prevent fibre breakage and dust generation.
• Consistent slit edges optimise laminating, coating, and construction site installation.
• Tension-controlled winding assures uniform roll build-up, improving safety during handling.
• High-throughput slitting and rewinding lowers unit cost and boosts production output.

Our line solutions for the precision slitting of fiberglass and geosynthetics offer quick setups and straightforward maintenance. You benefit from reduced waste and higher uptime. Precise slitting and winding provide confidence both for line operators and plant managers.

Tailored technology platforms and process control

Every production line has unique requirements. That is why we customise the slitting method, web transport, and drive technology for each application. For precision slitting of fiberglass and geosynthetics, we provide twin roll and centre-drive slitters that ensure consistent operation on thick, stiff, or delicate substrates. Our three-knife slitting units deliver repeatable slit widths (usually 40–100 mm) for a range of technical textiles and composites.

Efficient unwinding systems are critical for heavy and large-diameter rolls. CAMPEN’s shaftless unwinder with integrated accumulator keeps web tension stable during splices and roll changes. Operators use Siemens S7 PLCs and an intuitive HMI for recipe management, data logging, and alarm monitoring, enabling easy operation and rapid troubleshooting. Where needed, slitting and winding can be fully automated to further improve operator safety and reduce manual intervention.

• Twin roll and centre-driven designs keep webs aligned and minimise lateral movement.
• Three-knife slitting provides clean edges and lowers fibre dust for fibrous materials.
• Closed-loop feedback systems protect binders and coated surfaces during production.
• Accumulators enable non-stop running and high productivity with reduced bottlenecks.
• Cross-cutting options simplify downstream packaging and palletising.

Operator safety and system reliability are built into every machine. CAMPEN uses sturdy, industry-standard components. Protective guards, interlock switches, and service-friendly layouts help ensure short downtimes and simplifiy spare part management. This translates into lower maintenance costs and predictable long-term performance for your facility.

Comprehensive solutions for advanced production environments

CAMPEN delivers both stand-alone slitting modules and fully integrated production lines for precision slitting of fiberglass and geosynthetics. Systems are configurable for in-line or off-line installation, including options for downstream packaging and finished roll handling. Standard configurations cover wide webs (up to 5.1 metres) and heavy rolls (up to 2,000 kg), making them suitable for geosynthetics, roofing felts, filtration media, and technical films. Our experience with process integration allows you to respond flexibly to new product specifications and changing customer needs.

• Over four decades of technical expertise with nonwovens, glass fibres, composites, and speciality films.
• Custom integration across unwinding, slitting, winding, and packing sections to suit your facility layout.
• Versatile in-line or off-line solutions to minimise production stoppages and improve workflow.
• Focus on visible roll consistency and stable downstream processing for laminators and end-users.
• Reliable systems proven in harsh plant environments—supporting continuous manufacturing for demanding sectors.

Wide application support, durable components, and operator-friendly controls help simplify day-to-day production and long-term investment planning. Whether you need a retrofit, a new slitting module, or complete plant integration, CAMPEN Machinery delivers dependable solutions for the precision slitting of fiberglass and geosynthetics.
