turret rewinder solutions for efficient nonwoven processing

Since the 1970s, CAMPEN has helped nonwoven manufacturers increase output, improve operational quality, and secure higher uptime with advanced turret rewinder solutions. Our approach combines process insight with reliable engineering and a commitment to your needs. Every turret rewinder is robust, easy to operate, and designed for continuous, safe production. With features like automatic roll change and accurate tension control, you can expect stable roll build-up at all speeds. Whether producing roof underlay, geotextiles, or spunlace nonwovens, our equipment delivers low cost per roll, fewer stops, and fast changeovers.

Engineered solutions for continuous nonwoven and technical textile winding

Our turret rewinder platform enables uninterrupted production even in demanding environments. With automatic flying splice, roll changes happen on the fly, minimising downtime and increasing productivity. Cantilevered turret shafts simplify core loading and finished roll removal, reducing manual handling efforts and speeding up changeovers.

Advanced servo drives and precise tension control maintain web stability while accelerating, decelerating, or splicing. This is crucial for processing delicate nonwovens and technical textiles prone to telescoping or deformation. Whether your application demands gentle handling for lightweight spunlace or higher tensions for geotextiles and roof underlays, the system adapts seamlessly.

• High-speed rewinding up to 350 m/min boosts daily output while upholding excellent roll quality.
• Handles roll diameters up to ø1500 mm and up to 500 kg, ensuring fewer roll changes and better logistics per tonne processed.
• Supports in-line slitting for multiple finished widths per production run, saving on post-processing steps and costs.
• Cross cutting options for thick or dense nonwovens without fibre damage improve versatility for special web constructions.
• Compact, space-saving design with complete CE approval streamlines installation and workplace compliance.

We configure each nonwoven turret rewinder for your material and production needs – whether spunlace, airlaid, fibreglass, or technical felt. Machines can be installed in-line or off-line, and linked with upstream turret unwinder systems to further enhance line productivity and efficiency.

Reliable winding control, operator safety, and streamlined operation

Combining robust machine design with smart control, our servo-driven turret winding machines deliver uniform web tension, clean roll edges, and precise lay-on. This ensures optimal roll density and avoids winding defects at every speed and diameter. The system works equally well for sensitive low-density webs as for strong technical textiles.

Operators benefit from an intuitive HMI and straightforward recipe management, reducing training time and supporting process consistency. The cantilevered design gives open shaft access, enabling rapid core changes and easy roll unloading. Built-in safety guarding and CE-certified interlocks protect both the operator and facility.

• Automatic flying splice reduces roll change downtime and helps stabilise production, even at high speeds.
• In-line slitting and edge trimming cut waste and deliver finished product directly off the line.
• Optional dust extraction preserves product cleanliness and supports VOC/safety compliance.
• Taper tension and gap settings protect delicate webs and prevent faults such as stars or telescoping.
• Data logging ensures traceability and aids process optimization for quality assurance teams.

Our turret rewinder can be used as a stand-alone unit or integrated directly in your nonwoven production line. CAMPEN’s engineering team supports optimal mechanical and control interfaces with upstream forming, bonding, or coating units, ensuring reliable web handling from start to finished roll.

Proven expertise and ongoing customer support in winding technology

For over five decades, CAMPEN has delivered turret rewinders and winding equipment to nonwoven and technical textile manufacturers around the world. Every machine is CE-certified and built to perform reliably shift after shift. We understand the requirements of plant operators, production engineers, and maintenance managers: robust equipment with predictable maintenance and an attractive quality-to-price ratio.

Our turret rewinder supports a wide range of applications including geotextiles, roof underlay, spunlace, airlaid, fibreglass mats, and industrial felt. Machines can be supplied for narrow or wide working widths and are configured for different line speeds, roll sizes, and available floor space. Tension control, slitting, and safety features are adjusted to your material and productivity targets.

• Continuous production and automatic roll change increase equipment uptime and keep output high.
• Cantilever shaft design reduces manual lifting, improving ergonomics and operator safety.
• Stable, precise tension control at any speed protects product quality and minimises waste.
• In-line slitting and trimming capabilities lower the need for additional downstream processes.
• Global technical service, spares, and remote support available to maintain reliable operation worldwide.

You can rely on CAMPEN turret rewinders for long-term, stable operation and easy integration in nonwoven processes. Our experts consider your working width, web structure, roll requirements, and process layout, ensuring you receive a reliable and efficient solution.
