Automatic Thermal Transfer Ribbon Slitter Rewinder

Features

• High-Precision Slitting – Uses magnetic blade holders or razor blades to achieve clean edges on thin films (typically 4–20 microns). Minimum slit widths can go down to 20–25 mm .
• Automatic Tension Control – Servo motors (often 4 independent units) and PLC control (e.g., Siemens) maintain consistent web tension from unwind to rewind, preventing stretching or wrinkling .
• Leader/Trailer Handling – Semi-automatic or fully automatic stations apply leader and trailer tape/film, reducing manual labor and material waste (ribbon-saving function) .
• Turret Rewinding (High-End) – Fully automatic models feature a turret system that switches finished rolls without stopping the machine, boosting throughput for large-volume production .
• Core Compatibility – Handles both 1-inch and 1/2-inch cores interchangeably, which is essential for serving different printer requirements .
• Speed Range – Varies by model: entry-level/compact units run at 30–80 m/min; mid-range at 250–300 m/min; fully automatic high-speed lines reach 400–450 m/min .
