    Advanced roll slitting and winding technology for high-quality production

    Web handling and accumulation for the meltblown nonwoven process

    Since the 1970s, CAMPEN Machinery A/S has supported the meltblown nonwoven process with robust, high-quality equipment. We provide solutions that protect sensitive webs and stabilise production. Our approach is practical and grounded in measurable results. We listen to your needs, define requirements, and deliver machinery that fits your production line. From initial studies through commissioning, our team targets high uptime, operator safety, and cost control. We have deep experience in low tension web handling before winding—where defects or web breaks most often occur. Our systems buffer process variations, maintain steady web tension, and support winder synchronisation for consistent roll quality.

    stabilising web handling for meltblown, wetlaid and spunbond lines

    The meltblown nonwoven process demands gentle, stable web transport before the winder. Even small increases in tension can damage or tear lightweight nonwoven materials. Our web accumulator and belt accumulator solutions offer a controlled buffer between upstream processes and the winder, keeping web tension low. This helps reduce breaks, maintain cleaner edges, and ensure repeatable roll construction across wetlaid, spunbond, and meltblown lines.

    benefits of campen web accumulation in nonwoven production

    • Low tension web transport protects fibre structure and material loft for sensitive nonwovens.
    • Tension-free accumulation absorbs upstream fluctuations safely and effectively.
    • Accurate loop control minimises wrinkles, telescoping, and production scrap.
    • Reliable synchronisation with the winder ensures consistent lay-on and roll density.
    • Clean threading and easy operation simplify changeovers and operator training.

    We adapt belt geometry, surface properties, and contact pressure for each meltblown nonwoven process. Options like edge guiding, nip control, or anti-static units support material stability and operator safety. The frames and moving parts are robust yet easy to access for cleaning and maintenance.

    building reliability with proven engineering

    We deliver machine designs and control systems for the meltblown nonwoven process and other nonwoven lines based on decades of experience. Our equipment operates in plants across Europe and the world. Our focus is on stable production, simple operation, and easy maintenance. That means robust mechanics, high-quality parts, and clear user interfaces for your staff’s confidence and safety.

    upgradable, production-focused features for nonwoven lines

    • Servo-driven machine sections maintain constant web tension at every speed
    • Closed-loop feedback prevents over-pull, reducing web breaks on lightweight webs
    • Dynamic buffering absorbs process upsets without introducing new errors
    • Safety guards and systems help ensure CE compliance and safe operator access
    • Modular designs reduce downtime and support simple upgrades or maintenance

    Our engineers select motors, belts, and rollers according to your process window and validate choices through calculation and on-site test runs. For very light webs, we customise wrap angles and contact forces to prevent marking or fibre damage. We align all controls—infeed to winder—for steady, even tension.

    You receive clear documentation, proactive maintenance plans and spare parts. We supply training so your team can operate and maintain the equipment confidently.

    integrated control and winder coordination for superior roll output

    Stable infeed is key for top roll quality. Our control system links each web accumulator with the winder, ensuring they move together. Recipe management sets target tension and buffer length. PLCs monitor loops and keep outputs steady even during splices and speed changes, buffering the web without tension spikes that can cause breaks.

    advanced control tools for the meltblown nonwoven process

    • Recipe systems speed up product changeovers and standardise results
    • Adaptive loop control lowers waste during transitions
    • Visual alarms allow quick operator response to deviations
    • Energy-efficient motors reduce power demand at part-load operation
    • Data logging enables detailed analysis for continuous improvement

    We connect with your DCS or MES, transferring key data such as tension, web speed, and roll diameter. Our engineers provide on-site commissioning and parameter setup. The focus remains steady: fewer breaks, smooth transitions, and reliable roll construction that minimises rework or scrap.

    If your operation runs wetlaid or spunbond alongside meltblown, we set up profiles and limits for each grade. Operators choose the grade, and the system applies the correct controls, supporting a steady, flexible product mix.
