TORRESLITE
A new automatic high speed Cantilever splicer for narrow web reels
MTORRES has designed the TORRESLITE, a new automatic high speed Cantilever splicer for narrow web reels (up to 900 mm), with constant tension control and a capability of splicing at speeds of up to 1.480 fpm. TORRESLITE allows for both overlap splicing without a tail and perfect butt splicing. Automatic splicing in register is also available as an option.
DATA: The installation at final destination is easily made thanks to the different modules that are assembled without difficulty.
TORRESLITE will handle materials ranging from films and nonwovens to paper products, and is a per-fect fit for all solution coaters, extrusion-coaters, laminators and printers.
Advantages/Benefits:
'TORRESLITE zero-speed’ splicer means higher reliability: less missed splicers, less production stops, more productivity.
In the TORRESLITE splicer, the tail is eliminated so that the film curtain in the laminator or the print rollers on the press are not disturbed when the splice passes through the line. The result: no material is thrown away and valuable material gets on the reel as finished product.
