Since the 1970s, CAMPEN Machinery A/S has delivered robust slitting and winding solutions to leading manufacturers worldwide. Our equipment helps increase output and improve roll quality through practical, proven engineering. We design, build, and service complete production lines for roll slitting polyethylene film and other technically demanding materials. Our focus is on uptime, safety, and consistent roll build-up, even during long shifts and with wide web widths. You can choose in-line or off-line slitting setups that are easy to operate and offer precise control. We provide straightforward answers and strong support from design through to production ramp-up.
Our machinery is purpose-built for roll slitting polyethylene film, nonwovens, and technical textiles. Each solution delivers repeatable, high-quality results in every batch, whether you run in-line after extrusion or coating, or choose off-line converting for maximum process flexibility. You can select from twin roll or centre-driven slitters with three-knife systems, ensuring clean edges and reliable, consistent slit widths for a broad range of web materials.
Optional cross cutting and fully integrated edge trim handling further optimise your process for polyethylene film and other substrates. Each slitting system is sized to your web width, production speed, and roll weight targets for maximum compatibility with your operation.
Every roll slitting polyethylene film line we supply includes shaftless unwinders, accumulators, and closed-loop speed and tension control. A Siemens S7 PLC with HMI enables simple operation, swift recipe changes, and clear diagnostics. Heavy-roll handling is standard, suitable for geosynthetics, nonwovens, and wide polyethylene film formats. Automatic roll slitting and winding reduce manual steps, supporting steady output even through extended shifts.
We deliver stand-alone slitters or complete production lines, including packaging and rewinding equipment. This scalability allows you to grow from pilot projects to high-volume output without major platform or control system changes.
Quality managers trust our equipment to provide uniform density and precise edge quality during roll slitting polyethylene film. Our winding units use accurate nip and torque control, enabling you to manage film stretch and thickness changes while maintaining layer-to-layer consistency. This ensures clean roll geometry and smoother downstream processing. We adapt drive systems and web paths to reduce drag, wrinkles, and telescoping for sensitive or specialty films.
The Siemens S7 PLC integrates all drives, load cells, and sensors to maintain even web tension throughout production. Operators can save recipes by product type, speeding up changeovers and supporting predictable outcomes every shift. Real-time alarms and fault logs minimise downtime, while data logging supports quality documentation and compliance needs.
CAMPEN machines are designed for easy access, safe web threading, and quick knife replacement. These features reduce maintenance time and ensure predictable uptime, supporting consistent production across every shift.
For over 40 years, CAMPEN has provided roll slitting polyethylene film and winding equipment to nonwoven and technical textile industries around the world. Many high-capacity plants choose our machinery as their preferred slitter/rewinder for geotextiles, spunlace, airlaid, and plastic film. We integrate with upstream extrusion, coating, or laminating lines, and link seamlessly to packaging or automated logistics downstream. This approach reduces interfaces and provides a single reliable partner from engineering to line operation.
We work with production technicians, service teams, and plant managers to make operations straightforward and safe. Training services cover setup, operation, and maintenance, while our remote support and spare parts programme help you keep line uptime high.
