Since the 1970s, CAMPEN Machinery A/S has helped manufacturers enhance web handling with robust, reliable, and easy-to-operate machinery. We specialise in the conversion of jumbo rolls, offering complete solutions that maximise uptime and ensure stable, high-quality results. Our approach is solution-oriented: we adapt every system to your production requirements, web type, and target roll specifications. From mother roll handling to high-speed slitting and rewinding, we support efficient conversions with minimal waste, quick changeovers, and reliable machine operation. With thorough documentation, operator training, and ongoing technical support, your teams work confidently and your production delivers consistent output batch after batch.
Our systems for the conversion of jumbo rolls cover every process stage, from roll loading to precise rewinding. Shaftless unwinding with hydraulic lift ensures safe, smooth handling of heavy mother rolls. Web guides with advanced sensors keep even flexible or variable webs on track as speeds shift. Closed-loop tension control protects web integrity and reduces the risk of breaks, regardless of material thickness or line speed. Choose razor, shear, or crush slitting—optimized for your web—to support accurate and repeatable size reduction. Integrated automatic knife positioning and edge trimming further reduce downtime while containing dust for clean, continuous operation.
All system modules align with your upstream and downstream lines, simplifying integration and automation. Programmable logic controls with recipe management standardise operation and reduce operator workload. Safety is ensured with CE-compliant guarding and emergency stops—keeping uptime high while maintaining compliance with EU/UK safety regulations.
For reliable downstream processing, edge quality is critical. Our slitter rewinders maintain tight tolerances across the conversion of jumbo rolls—reducing dust, edge fray, and inconsistent winding. Shear slitting suits films and foils for clean, precise cuts, while razor units are tailored for nonwovens and soft tissue webs. Features like automatic overlap setting and integrated edge trimming boost production speed while keeping cut quality high and waste low.
Stable web management is essential in reducing defects during jumbo roll conversion. Our dynamic tension control avoids issues such as telescoping, web breakage, and wrinkling, even with fluctuating speeds or sensitive materials. Choose between centre or surface winding for tailored roll hardness and format. We offer turret winding for continuous operation and minimal stop times. Roll discharge automation and inline conveying reduce manual handling and promote safer production environments.
Our equipment handles the conversion of jumbo rolls in a range of demanding industries. We consistently convert nonwovens, hygiene substrates, technical textiles, films, foils, laminates, and composites. Custom system designs cater to thick, elastic, or low-tension webs—ensuring softness and structure for hygiene grades, and stability for technical applications. Airflow-guided paths, low inertia drives, and sealed dust zones improve processing for delicate and sensitive materials. With decades of field experience, we recommend the ideal slitting and winding configuration to match your product, whether you produce narrow rolls for medical use or wide webs for industrial converting.
Each system delivers reliable automation, format flexibility, and digital traceability. This means you can optimise throughput, maintain quality, and respond quickly to changing market demands.
We manage all aspects of jumbo roll conversion projects—from plant layout and risk evaluation, to FAT, SAT, and on-site commissioning. Mechanical and electrical integration with coaters, laminators, embossers, or packing lines is fully documented and tested before delivery. Customers benefit from thorough operator training, clear manuals, and responsive aftersales service, ensuring your investment is protected over the long term with dependable, easy-to-operate machinery.
