Since the 1970s, CAMPEN Machinery A/S has provided reliable, robust machinery to leading web processors for converting rolls into shorter lengths with precision and high uptime. Our equipment is designed for efficient converting to custom widths and formats, ensuring stable performance for nonwovens, films, and technical textiles. Experienced technical teams understand diverse processes, materials, and demands for modern roll-to-roll converting and downstream integration. We always focus on your goals for quality, process efficiency, cost control, and operator safety. Every line is tailored to fit your requirements and to integrate smoothly into your production to support a seamless workflow and predictable production output.
CAMPEN offers complete converting lines engineered for safe and accurate reduction of roll length and width. Shaftless unwinding with hydraulic systems simplifies mother roll and jumbo roll handling, improving ergonomics and reducing setup times. Our automatic web guiding system and closed-loop tension control ensure accurate web alignment, protect the material, and reduce edge waste when converting rolls to new formats.
Each slitter rewinder is configured for your production needs and material characteristics. Advanced knife slitting systems allow flexibility between razor, shear, or crush slitting for clean, consistent edges on a variety of substrates such as nonwovens, tissue, films, or laminates. Automatic knife positioning decreases changeover times and increases repeatability. Efficient edge trimming combined with integrated trim extraction systems help maintain a clean production environment and protect against contaminating dust or fibre.
Our product range includes centre and surface rewinding options to provide the right roll hardness for your process. For operations with high throughput, turret rewinders reduce downtime and maximise efficiency when converting rolls into shorter lengths. PLC automation and recipe-based controls enable fast, safe changes between length and width settings. Integrated inline inspection and dust extraction support high quality targets and compliance requirements, all while maintaining fast production rates.
Accurate roll width reduction and efficient roll length reduction are at the core of our solutions. CAMPEN slitter rewinders are engineered for high-speed precision with minimal edge waste and reliable roll build. The automatic knife positioning system saves time by locking settings for every format, while safeguarding delicate fibres, coatings, or multi-layered webs.
Typical operations include converting jumbo rolls into smaller ones, slitting large mother rolls into narrow widths, or rewinding material for downstream processes. We serve converters of nonwovens, tissue, film, foil, and packaging materials, with solutions adapted for every web width, roll weight, and core diameter for stable operation even with heavy or large-diameter rolls.
From trimming for industrial conversion to handling specialty grades, every line is fully configured for your material and throughput requirements. User-friendly operation and robust build quality make every conversion step consistent, letting your team deliver high-quality results, every time.
Safe and stable handling of mother rolls is crucial, particularly as web widths and roll sizes grow. CAMPEN’s systems provide robust frames and precise roll transport systems, helping operators load and unload heavy rolls with ease. Hydraulic shaftless unwinding and intuitive safety features reduce manual handling risks. Automated web guiding, interlocked safety guards, and real-time sensors help operators work efficiently and reduce the risk of process errors when converting rolls into shorter lengths.
Automation technology provides centralised recipe controls, setting parameters like web tension, path, and cutting positions for each batch. Automatic roll discharge and seamless transport integration help avoid bottlenecks and keep lines running at high throughput. These features support reliable, continuous converting and high-volume rewinding.
Whether converting to small formats or managing large-scale production, we match solutions to your plant’s needs for reliable, trouble-free operation. You benefit from high output, cost control, and the ability to deliver finished rolls to your customers’ exact specifications, every time.
If you seek to improve output or quality when converting rolls into shorter lengths, share your materials, formats, and goals with us. Our specialists can evaluate your set-up, explain upgrade options, and help you achieve better efficiency, safety, and cost savings. We offer solutions for every stage, from initial assessment to post-installation support, ensuring your investment delivers reliable results and long-term production value.
