Reliable converting machinery for industrial slitting and rewinding

Since the 1970s, CAMPEN Machinery A/S has delivered reliable converting machinery to producers worldwide. We design and build robust lines that keep your production running around the clock. Our solutions focus on stable handling, precise slitting, and safe, easy operation. We listen to your needs and engineer converting machinery that fits your process. From mother roll handling to final packing, we cover the full workflow. Our converting machinery integrates with both new lines and existing plant setups. This gives you proven technology, strong technical support, and a partner committed to solving your production challenges with a practical, results-oriented approach.

Engineered equipment for processing heavy rolls with precision

Our converting machinery is built to handle heavy mother rolls with confidence. Shaftless unwinding and hydraulic roll loading ensure safe handling and quicker changeovers. Closed-loop web tension control reduces errors at high speeds, while automatic web guiding technology keeps edges straight before slitting. These features deliver consistent quality and reduce material waste.

Every slitter rewinder is tailored for your material type and production format. Our equipment supports both razor and shear slitting methods, achieving accurate widths and smooth edges. Automatic knife positioning shortens set-up time and reduces operator risk. Integrated edge trimming and trim extraction keep lines clean and maintain efficiency. Choose between centre or surface rewinding, including turret options, for tightly wound, uniform rolls ready for further processing.

• Robust handling of large-diameter rolls reduces damage and lowers downtime costs.
• High-precision slitting keeps edge waste low and controls overall material spend.
• Accurate width reduction allows high-speed production while maintaining quality standards.
• Advanced closed-loop tension systems promote better roll build and less waste.
• Full system integration, upstream and downstream, supports a shorter cycle time.

Whether you need width or length reduction, complete roll-to-roll conversion, or individual slitting and rewinding modules, our converting machinery is configured to match your formats and speeds. Operators benefit from intuitive controls for simple, safe use, while maintenance teams appreciate the easy access and robust design that extend machine life.

Automation, safety systems, and operator-focused design

We equip our machinery with PLC-based automation for rapid, recipe-driven changes. Operators adjust web width, roll length, and slitting arrays directly through the HMI. The system manages knife positioning, tension, web guiding, and line speed within safety parameters. This method shortens downtime and improves output consistency. Optional inline inspection can quickly detect defects, helping you improve quality and reduce scrap.

Safety is a core component of every project. CE-compliant guarding, interlocks, and emergency stops protect operators during loading, threading, and roll discharge. Dust extraction and filter systems enhance cleanliness and extend blade performance. Automated roll discharge and robust transport systems decrease manual handling and reduce workplace risk.

• Recipe-driven automation reduces changeover times, boosting output per shift.
• Automatic knife adjustment cuts set-up time and increases process reliability.
• Turret rewinders maintain production speed and minimise stops for roll changes.
• Integrated trim and dust management supports longer runs and cleaner plant floors.
• Remote diagnostics and service support speed up troubleshooting and reduce downtime.

From jumbo roll intake through to final palletising, our converting machinery is designed for continuous production. Equipment is straightforward to operate, maintain, and clean, ready for the demands of 24/7 industrial use.

Specialised converting solutions for nonwovens, film, and technical textiles

CAMPEN supplies converting machinery to nonwoven producers, tissue and hygiene plants, film converters, and packaging and technical textile industries. In nonwovens, our lines help make filters, automotive fabrics, medical disposables, and other specialty products. We understand how web structure, fibre blends, and downstream processes such as laminating or coating affect converting. Our engineers apply this technical insight to help you optimise yield and quality.

Common applications include slitting wide mother rolls into smaller widths, reducing roll length for secondary operations, and trimming for custom widths. Our solutions cover batch and inline converting, edge trimming, roll length reduction, and industrial width adaptation. Machines are specified according to your materials, formats, production speeds, and safety demands.

• Heavy-duty construction ensures round-the-clock reliability and fewer breakdowns.
• Flexible line layouts accommodate limited space or existing process lines.
• Built-in data collection helps track production and support quality checks.
• Full lifecycle service, from installation and training to maintenance, protects your investment.
• Retrofit kits and upgrades for knives, drives, or control systems extend uptime and value.

CAMPEN delivers both full-system solutions and standalone modules, including unwinding stations, web guides, tension control, slitter rewinders, dust extraction, and rewinding units. Every machine is built for reliability, higher throughput, and safer operation, with a focus on reducing operating costs per metre produced.
