How it works

Sapphire S2Wide-Web Duplex Slitter Rewinder

Our leading duplex slitter rewinder has been engineered to handle all flexible material substrates at high speeds with exceptional accuracy. The design offers everything from a straightforward manual setup to a fully automated slitter rewinder, minimizing operator involvement while maximizing efficiency.

Equipped with advanced control technology, the Sapphire S2 is extremely easy to operate and provides the flexibility converters need in today’s market. Multiple unwind configurations are available, ensuring compatibility with a broad range of applications and products.

Every slitting method can be supported by the Sapphire S2, with a variety of automation options at the slitting station to simplify and accelerate knife setup. Automation extends into the rewind stage as well, with features such as automatic core indication and automatic core positioning.

This slitting machine is the best choice for flexible packaging and medical products, as it uses no hydraulics; all unwind operations are electrically powered. Integrated vacuum roller technology ensures flawless tension isolation between unwind and rewind, requiring no operator input or maintenance.

The machine package can also include tailored roll handling solutions, ranging from fixed pedestals to advanced robotic systems with integrated wrapping and labeling.
