Slitting & Computerized Smartwinder Winding Systems for spooling exceptionally long lengths of PTFE.

The spooling system features, separate unwind, heat seal/splice interchangeable slitter and Computerized Smartwinder modules. The heat/seal splice with pneumatic actuated heated platen has programmable temperature control to 750° F with adjustable cycle time. Each spooling position operates completely independent of all other positions and has a computerized, fully adjustable, servo driven traverse that will vary pitch, stroke length and end dwell through Smartwinders software. Precise adjustable rewind tension accurate to within 7 grams is controlled by an independent closed loop follower assembly.

Extremely High temperature sintering rolls for the stretch process of PTFE

Extremely High temperature sintering rolls for the stretch process of PTFE

The stainless steel electrically heated rolls to 750° have a 500mm diameter x 380mm face. A series of electrically controlled cartridge heaters inside the roll circumference provide the desired heating profile. Each roll is divided into 3 heating zones for accurate heat distribution within 1% of setpoint.

24" wide inline or offline PTFE MDO (4) roll stretch Unit with Annealing, Sintering and Chill Roll sections and separate unwind and rewind modules

24" wide inline or offline PTFE MDO (4) roll stretch Unit with Annealing, Sintering and Chill Roll sections and separate unwind and rewind modules for maximum 18" wide low density, 001" - .020" thick PTFE film.

All four heated rolls are 24" face x 18" diameter steel alloy with a 6 RMS finish. The entry MDO section has two heated rolls to 550º F and the sintering section has a sintering roll to 760ºF and an annealing roll to 550ºF. The MDO machine has a 5 drive AC flux vector drive system with a speed range to 100 FPM with a 10:1 stretch and .1% speed match accuracy. The 18" diameter aluminum chill roll is driven from the annealing roll.
