Since the 1970s, we have delivered reliable equipment for the nonwovens industry. We design robust lines for in-line vs off-line nonwoven converting, focusing on maximum uptime, product quality, and safe operation. Our engineers combine technical expertise with a solution-oriented mindset. Each system is adapted to your fabric type and production setup, so you achieve stable output and easy handling. Whether you operate a new plant or plan retrofits, we offer full support – from trial runs to large-scale production. You gain clear guidance, proven technology, and long-term service.
In-line nonwoven converting is integrated directly after web formation or bonding. This approach can remove extra material handling and reduce work-in-progress. It is well suited to standardised products and large order sizes, where equipment uptime and quality stability are essential.
Our in-line converting solutions – including winding, slitting and rewinding – connect directly to your line control. Features such as closed-loop tension control, precise web guiding, and automated roll change ensure stable performance and operator safety.
Off-line nonwoven converting takes place in a separate cell, away from the main production line. This setup is ideal for small batches, frequent format changes, or special requirements. Off-line converting lets you handle sensitive fabrics at reduced line speed, without interrupting main production. It supports processing of technical textiles that require custom slitting, advanced inspection, or detailed testing.
We provide off-line slitting and rewinding machines designed for quick setup and safe operation. Independent drives and tension zones help protect delicate materials. The control system gives operators straightforward recipe management and roll handling tools.
We supply converting systems for a wide range of nonwovens and technical textiles – including hygiene, filtration, automotive, wipes, and insulation. Each system is configured to your fabric type, tension window, and target roll size. Our robust hardware and intuitive control systems are designed for easy daily operation and fast maintenance.

We have delivered converting equipment to the nonwovens industry for over five decades. This experience is reflected in every detail, from safety guards to control logic. All machines comply with EU safety standards and include risk assessments and CE documentation. Operators receive user-friendly HMIs with clear guidance and alarm support.
Mechanical frames are robust and easy to service. Bearings, cutting tools, and guides are selected for long operational life and high accuracy. Drives and tension control are simulated and factory-tested to match your specific line speed and web properties. We pre-assemble and run acceptance tests to reduce site installation and ramp-up time.
Whether you need in-line converting for streamlined production, or off-line converting for maximum flexibility, we align solutions with your business goals. You receive honest advice, transparent timelines, and reliable equipment that works day after day.
Each factory has unique targets for flexibility, cost, and product quality. We help you choose between in-line vs off-line nonwoven converting by providing clear insight into ROI, risk, and practical considerations. Share your product mix, roll dimensions, and line speed expectations. Our team will recommend layouts, modules, and upgrades that fit your floor space, process requirements, and workforce.
