Semi Automatic Rewinding and Slitting Machine

Semi-Automatic Stretch Film Rewinding and Slitting Machine – HTS-A500

The HTS-A500 semi-automatic rewinding and slitting machine is a high-performance industrial solution designed for efficient conversion of large master rolls into smaller, customized rolls of stretch film. This versatile equipment ensures precise width adjustment, improved coil flatness, and enhanced product quality by correcting layer misalignment and removing surface defects such as printing inconsistencies or material imperfections. Ideal for packaging, logistics, and manufacturing industries, this system delivers reliable operation with minimal manual intervention while maintaining superior consistency across production runs.

Key Features:

• Dual-shaft winding system for two independent stations—boosts productivity and reduces downtime between roll changes.
• Digital counter and inverter-driven speed control for accurate length measurement and consistent output.
• Robust steel frame construction ensures long-term stability during continuous operation.
• Customizable cutting widths from 50mm up to full 500mm, allowing flexible production setups based on client needs.
• Supports various core sizes including 3", 2", and 1.5" (with paper thickness ≥4mm), accommodating different end-use requirements.

Detailed Description:

Engineered for both efficiency and precision, the HTS-A500 operates at speeds ranging from 0 to 600 meters per minute, making it suitable for medium to high-volume operations. The machine handles mother rolls up to 400mm in diameter and produces finished rolls with a maximum diameter of 150mm, ensuring compatibility with standard winding equipment. Its modular design allows seamless integration into existing production lines, particularly where reprocessing of raw materials is required to reduce waste and optimize cost-effectiveness. With features like automatic tension control and error correction during rewinding, this system significantly improves the final roll’s uniformity, reducing curling, edge damage, and uneven layers—a common issue in manual or low-grade automated systems.

Applications & Use Cases:

This rewind and slit unit finds extensive use in food packaging, pharmaceuticals, consumer goods, and industrial wrapping sectors. It is especially valuable for businesses that require custom-sized shrink wrap films, pallet wrap, or Cling Film for retail and distribution purposes. Whether converting oversized reels into manageable rolls for small-scale packaging lines or repurposing defective master rolls into usable stock, the HTS-A500 offers operational flexibility and economic advantages. Additionally, its ability to handle multi-layered films without compromising integrity makes it an ideal choice for producers seeking to enhance product aesthetics and performance.

User Feedback Highlights:

Operators across Europe and North America have praised the machine for its ease of setup, consistent output quality, and durability under heavy-duty conditions. Users often note how the digital feedback system simplifies workflow planning and minimizes material loss due to misalignment. Many appreciate the ability to adjust roll widths quickly without requiring specialized tools—a feature that increases throughput and supports just-in-time manufacturing strategies.

Frequently Asked Questions:

What is the maximum speed of the HTS-A500? It can reach up to 600 meters per minute, depending on the material type and desired roll quality.

Can I change the roll width easily? Yes, the machine supports variable slitting widths from 50mm to 500mm, enabling quick adjustments for different product specifications.

Is maintenance required regularly? Routine checks are recommended every 500 hours of operation to ensure optimal performance, including belt tension, roller alignment, and electrical components.

How does it improve coil flatness? Through intelligent tension management and dual-loop winding, the system prevents overlapping layers and maintains even pressure throughout the roll formation process.

Is it suitable for thin films? Absolutely—it performs exceptionally well with polyethylene, PVC, and other plastic films commonly used in stretch wrapping applications.

What distinguishes this model from fully automatic units? While not fully automated, the HTS-A500 provides semi-autonomous functionality with advanced controls, offering an excellent balance between cost-efficiency and performance for mid-sized enterprises.
