Roll slitting artificial leather systems for technical textiles

Since the 1970s, CAMPEN Machinery A/S has delivered robust roll slitting artificial leather systems to the nonwovens and technical textile sector. Our equipment is reliable, straightforward to operate, and engineered for consistent roll quality and minimal downtime. With deep technical know-how, we provide roll slitting artificial leather solutions tailored for demanding production lines. We support both stand-alone slitter/rewinder installations and complete in-line or off-line systems, including material handling and packaging solutions. Wide-web and heavy-roll capabilities, precise machine control, and strong after-sales service make us a trusted partner for roll slitting artificial leather and similar applications.

Meeting critical demands in artificial leather and coated textile processing

Modern artificial leather and technical textiles demand accurate web guidance, reliable tension management, and precision slitting. Our roll slitting artificial leather technology is purpose-built to meet these challenges, whether you are running slitting in-line with coating or laminating, or converting off-line from warehouse rolls. For high-volume needs, twin roll slitters help maximise output without sacrificing quality. For delicate surfaced materials, our centre-driven slitters enable secure, tension-controlled rewinding, reducing the risk of damage.

Technical features designed for roll quality and flexibility

Three-knife slitting systems provide precise slit widths from 40–100 mm, resulting in clean, straight cuts and quality edges.
Waste minimisation via precise edge trim management (typically 30–50 mm) supports efficient downstream processing.
Cross cutting options ensure clean roll ends and improved changeover, reducing defects such as web marks.
A shaftless unwinder equipped with roll lift simplifies handling of heavy rolls and accelerates roll changes.
An integrated accumulator enables continuous production, supporting high overall equipment effectiveness during web splicing and transitions.

Our roll slitting artificial leather solutions accommodate wide webs—up to 5.1 m—and roll weights up to approximately 2000 kg. Advanced speed and tension controls ensure precise handling for artificial leather, faux leather, nonwoven, and film substrates. Automation modules for slitting and winding reduce labour demands and improve operator safety. The full system delivers repeatable, high-quality rolls, helping your production lines achieve efficiency, stable output, and fewer stoppages.

Ensuring process reliability and stable roll consistency

Consistent quality in roll slitting artificial leather processes depends on reliable process control and robust mechanics. Closed-loop tension regulation and speed synchronisation are standard, enabling stable handling of sensitive or stretch-prone materials. Tension-controlled winding prevents problems such as telescoping, baggy edges, or core slips, resulting in uniform, high-quality rolls.

Simplified operation with advanced machine controls

Siemens S7 PLC and HMI interface for clear, recipe-driven setups, convenient operator guidance, and easy troubleshooting.
Load-cell and torque feedback ensure tension remains stable during all speed phases—especially during starts and stops.
High-performance modules support industrial-scale continuous operation and rapid product changeovers.
Operator protection features: full guarding, safety interlocks, and clear access points during set-up and service.
Compact layouts allow for integration into existing production spaces and support easy cleaning and reduced maintenance time.

Our focus is on optimising uptime and output. Centre-driven winders protect surface-sensitive artificial leather and film. Twin roll slitters handle robust products like geotextiles and technical felts at high speeds. These features keep your downstream processes—laminating, multilayer coating, or automatic roll packaging—running smoothly, with minimal scrap or rework.

Industry experience supporting artificial leather manufacturers

With decades of project experience across artificial leather, faux leather, geosynthetics, spunlace, airlaid, felts, technical nonwovens, and film products, CAMPEN Machinery A/S delivers roll slitting artificial leather systems trusted by leading global producers. We implement both new lines and modernisation upgrades, ensuring equipment meets changing material requirements and market demands.
