automatic winder for felt – robust, reliable and efficient solutions

For over 40 years, CAMPEN Machinery A/S has delivered reliable automatic winders for felt and other demanding materials. Our automatic winder for felt is engineered for continuous production, precise web control, and safe performance. We develop robust, easy-to-operate systems that ensure consistent roll quality at high speeds. With a CAMPEN solution, you experience reduced downtime, fewer rejects, and clean roll edges on every roll.

Each automatic winder for felt is tailored to your layout, specific material properties, and production objectives. Integration with accumulators, advanced tension control, and packaging modules is standard. Our solution-oriented approach provides you with a stable, efficient, and safe winding process in your production environment.

Delivering reliability and efficiency for continuous felt winding

An automatic winder for felt from CAMPEN supports manufacturers of nonwovens, geotextiles, and technical textiles who depend on long operating times and consistent results. Servo-controlled winding delivers precise tension management, even when your basis weight or material width changes. Automatic roll changes are supported by integrated accumulators to enable safe splicing at line speed, reducing manual interventions and potential stoppages.

Enhance your workflow with integrated options such as automatic tube feeding, hot-melt roll start and end fixation, and fully compatible packaging solutions. These features protect your roll geometry, streamline logistics, and maintain product integrity through storage and transport. Our winders are suitable for both in-line winding after web forming and off-line rewinding for value-adding operations, accommodating heavy and wide felt rolls with strong, vibration-resistant mechanics.

• Automatic roll changing reduces downtime while maximising line efficiency.
• Servo-based tension control minimises defects like wrinkles and telescoping.
• Flexible configurations enable centre-driven or surface-driven winding, matching material and product requirements.
• Integrated packaging options safeguard roll appearance and free operator resources.
• Adaptable setups allow either in-line or off-line winding to optimise your process flow.

Precise tension and edge control for technical nonwovens

Many nonwoven felts and technical textiles are challenging to process due to variable thickness and compressibility. Our automatic winder for felt uses advanced tension control, managed lay-on pressure, and accurate edge guiding to achieve uniform, tight rolls. This minimises waste, supports consistent roll formation and improves later processing.

The system includes recipe management, ensuring repeatable results for each production run—regardless of shift or product type. Combine slitting and rewinding for controlled product width and seamless roll conversion. Our winders support numerous material types, including felts for construction, spunlace, airlaid nonwovens, fibreglass mats, artificial leather, and technical films. Campen’s roll handling options, such as core loading, automatic doffing and labelling, help you implement dependable, safe workflows across your operation.

• High-speed roll change and conversion keep you on target for throughput.
• Edge guiding plus real-time tension feedback assures flat rolls with fewer defects.
• Integrated data logging and alarms assist with process control and compliance requirements.
• Optional slitting technology enables efficient in-line or off-line roll conversion with less waste.
• Hot-melt fixation prevents unwanted roll unwinding during storage or transport.

Adaptable solutions matched to your facility and application

Since the 1970s, CAMPEN has engineered automatic winders for felt—to the exact needs of nonwoven and geosynthetic industries. We examine your product profiles, roll widths, and available floor space to deliver a custom automatic winder for felt that aligns with your production demands. Choose from centre-driven, surface-driven, or combined drive concepts for the best performance with your specific materials.

These systems are designed for seamless automation, with interfaces to upstream web forming and downstream packaging, palletising, and labelling solutions. All winders come CE-compliant, prioritising safe operation and easy maintenance. Robust engineering, intuitive controls, and lifetime-focused service characterise our approach to long-term productivity. Remote diagnostics, responsive spare parts delivery, and operator training help you maintain optimum performance year after year, with a reliably low total cost of ownership.

Configuration options and operational outcomes

• Custom setups for extra-wide felt materials streamline your production and reduce manual processing steps.
• Space-saving integrated packaging modules lower manual roll handling needs.
• Off-line rewinding with integrated inspection enhances product quality and minimises returns or rework.
• Automated tube loading and roll removal cut down on lifting and improve workplace safety.
• Modular designs make upgrading or scaling simple as your requirements grow.
