    Industrial winder and slitter machinery for nonwovens and technical textiles

    Plan your airlaid production investment with expert support

    Since the 1970s, CAMPEN Machinery A/S has supported the nonwovens industry. We supply reliable, robust and easy-to-operate airlaid machinery. If you are planning an airlaid production investment, we help you make decisions based on data. We combine machinery expertise with practical airlaid process know-how.

    We work with your engineers to align product, process and plant. This helps you build a clear business case and a stable production concept. You get a right-sized airlaid production line for your targets on quality, cost and capacity.

    Plan your airlaid production investment with measured data

    A sound airlaid production investment starts with verified product and process data. We help you assess raw materials, recipes, capacity needs and operating costs. This reduces investment risk before you commit to the final line specification.

    Pilot validation for your airlaid production investment

    In our airlaid test centre, we run structured trials on your fibres, binders and additives. We define stable recipes and process windows before final engineering starts. Your airlaid production investment becomes more predictable because assumptions are tested early.

    • Material screening helps you assess fibre and binder availability, pricing and supply risk.
    • Recipe trials can confirm basis weight, absorbency, thickness and tensile strength.
    • Web formation tests help improve uniformity and reduce scrap during production.
    • Process setting maps help operators reach on-spec quality faster during start-up.
    • Scaled run data supports total cost of ownership, energy use and yield calculations.

    You receive practical reports, sample rolls and clear technical recommendations. We also advise on line layout, automation level and future capacity steps. This supports a stronger airlaid line investment and a more realistic payback plan.

    When in-house airlaid production makes sense

    Moving from external sourcing to your own airlaid line can reduce logistics costs. It can also secure supply, improve quality control and protect product know-how. We help you compare these gains with capital, utilities and staffing needs.

    This gives you a fact-based view of timing, scope and expected payback. It also helps you decide whether your airlaid manufacturing investment should start at pilot, compact or full-scale level.

    Engineer an efficient, safe and scalable airlaid production line

    Our airlaid production line integrates fibre opening, forming, bonding, winding and automation. Each module is designed to support uptime, safety and consistent product quality. The line can be configured for different products, basis weights and formats.

    Robust airlaid equipment for uptime and quality

    • Accurate web forming helps reduce waste and stabilise quality across the width.
    • Energy-efficient ovens and air systems can reduce operating costs and emissions.
    • Smart dosing and blending help maintain recipe accuracy and reduce rework.
    • Inline measurement improves quality assurance, traceability and product release speed.
    • Accessible service areas help reduce downtime during cleaning and maintenance.

    We design each airlaid plant investment with production stability in mind. Wear parts, filtration and access points are specified for efficient service. This helps protect overall equipment effectiveness and lowers the risk of unplanned stops.

    Automation that supports operators

    Our controls and HMI are designed for straightforward operation. Clear setpoints, recipe management and alarms help your team control the process. Remote support tools give fast assistance and shorten troubleshooting time.

    Training and safety planning form part of the project scope. This helps your operators start production with confidence. It also supports a safer workplace and a smoother ramp-up curve.

    Clarify scope before your airlaid production investment

    Every airlaid production investment must cover more than the machine list. We help you review the full scope from product requirements to site readiness. This supports a reliable budget, schedule and start-up plan.

    Key investment areas to review

    • Product requirements: define basis weight, thickness, absorbency, tensile strength and formats.
    • Raw material strategy: assess fibre, binder and additive sourcing, cost and supply risk.
    • Pilot testing: confirm recipes, performance limits and stable process settings.
    • Total cost of ownership: calculate throughput, scrap, labour, energy use and maintenance costs.
    • Capacity utilisation: match line output with demand, shifts and growth plans.
    • Layout: plan footprint, material flow, logistics, access and future expansion.
    • Utilities: confirm electrical load, compressed air, chilled water and gas availability.
    • Quality assurance: define test methods, traceability, sampling routines and release criteria.
    • Safety: address ATEX, explosion protection, guarding, dust handling and fire detection.
    • Training: prepare operator skills, maintenance routines and HSE procedures.
    • FAT and SAT: set acceptance criteria, ramp-up targets and KPI tracking.
    • Service: define spare parts, response times and preventive maintenance plans.

    We structure these points into a clear project plan. This helps you control investment risk and secure internal stakeholder support. It also prepares your organisation for stable airlaid production from day one.

    Support for the full airlaid line lifecycle

    A long-term airlaid production investment needs support after commissioning. We assist your team with start-up, optimisation and periodic audits. We also supply spare parts packages and service agreements to keep the line productive.

    • Application support helps you introduce new recipes and products faster.
    • Process tuning can increase yield and reduce energy use per tonne.
    • On-site and remote service helps shorten downtime and protect overall equipment effectiveness.
    • Upgrades and retrofits can extend capability as your product range grows.

    You get a partner focused on stable output, predictable costs and continuous improvement. This helps your airlaid equipment remain a dependable production asset.
