The SOMATEC high speed turret winder HAW is a non-stop winder for highest demands at the in-line reel change. So perfect winding of sensitive materials as damageable plastic films, decor papers or nonwovens is possible up to a speed of 1500 m/min (4900 ft/min). Reel change is done at full web speed. In contrast to the standard turret winder principle the winding geometry is kept constant in optimum condition and the turret movement has no negative influence to the winding result.   more

Quality means also to start-up a machine quickly and without trouble for the operators. Beside an operator training by our service personnel also a comprehensive and easy to understand operating manual is important for this. Each operating manual describes the machine functions in detail with many graphics and photos originally taken from the corresponding machine.

Will you have reels wound with a larger diameter at the ends than in the center when winding edge trimmed film? The oscillation of the winding station can be a remedy to get a cylindrical wound reel. SOMATEC has realized this function now within the Turret Winder ATW, so that edge trimmed webs can be always wound non-stop and in-line with perfect quality.
