CTP flexibles (South Africa) adds 3 more Titan ER610 compact slitter rewinders
In recent years, CTP flexibles, the Cape Town based and leading South African converter of flexible packaging materials has achieved dramatic expansion of its business.
“We are enjoying record sales and now operating 24/7,’ explained Gary Seale, Managing Director of the company. “With the five new Titan ER610 slitters we now have ample capacity to cope with both current demand and also future expansion of our business. Having installed the two Titan slitters during 2010, we had every confidence to invest again with Titan,” he confirmed. “For our production requirements, these slitters really are the perfect solution.”
The Titan ER610 compact slitter rewinder has been a great success with sales of more than 100 machines worldwide. It has a maximum rewind diameter of 610 mm (24”), a 10” touch screen control system and an integral edge-trim extraction system. The pneumatically controlled braking system provides accurate web tension control and a digital edge-guide system controls lateral movement of the unwind reel to +/- 50 mm (2”). The minimum slit width can be as narrow as 25mm (approx. 1 inch) at speeds up to 450 m/min (1,500 ft/min).
Slitting systems available include shear knives, rotary razor (burst) or razor slitting in air or groove. Optional features include an anti-static control system, laser (line) core positioning and an option for shaftless unwind roll pick-up from the floor, which is included on all five Titan ER610 slitters commissioned at CTP flexibles.
