    Industrial winder and slitter machinery for nonwovens and technical textiles

    Meltblown web handling systems for sensitive nonwoven production

    Since the 1970s, CAMPEN Machinery A/S has enabled nonwoven producers to achieve stable, high-quality production. Our expertise in meltblown web handling helps manufacturers protect lightweight webs, reduce downtime and meet demanding specifications. The core of our approach is simple: robust, easy-to-operate systems that maintain low web tension, deliver precise accumulation and ensure reliable winder synchronisation. We design solutions for sensitive, lightweight meltblown and other nonwoven webs, supporting consistent, safe and productive operation. Whether your line produces meltblown, spunbond or wetlaid webs, we adapt each system to meet your process needs and quality targets.

    How low-tension handling keeps meltblown webs safe and production running

    Meltblown web handling requires stable, gentle movement from forming to winding. Sensitive nonwovens, such as pure meltblown or lightweight spunbond, can easily stretch, wrinkle or break when exposed to sudden tension. Our belt accumulator and web accumulator systems allow for tension-free accumulation, which is essential for protecting these fine structures. By using closed-loop sensors and advanced control systems, our solutions buffer the web and keep handling stress at a minimum. This helps reduce web breaks, prevents defects and delivers uniform rolls, ready for further processing or direct sale.

    Stable roll-to-roll handling is vital throughout nonwoven production, particularly during winder changeovers, splicing or planned stops. Accumulator systems manage web flow so the production line keeps running, cut waste and maintain consistent web quality. Integrating low tension web handling and winder synchronisation safeguards the structure and properties of meltblown, spunbond and wetlaid products. Our systems fit existing lines or new installations, making it easier to achieve safe, efficient and reliable outcomes.

    Key performance benefits of modern meltblown web handling

    • Reduces web breaks: Tension-free accumulation and gentle paths avoid costly production interruptions.
    • Enhances roll quality: Uniform web tension gives tight, clean rolls for efficient downstream processes.
    • Supports higher uptime: Buffering and accumulation cut downtime during operator or machine interventions.
    • Protects material properties: Stable, low-tension travel preserves structure, loft and appearance.
    • Simplifies operation: Intuitive interface and auto-recipes standardise handling and reduce training needs.

    Our solutions support the entire nonwoven process, enabling smooth integration with other equipment and providing the foundation for efficient, problem-free production runs.

    Web accumulators built for sensitive nonwovens and demanding processes

    CAMPEN’s belt accumulators and web accumulators are designed for sensitive, lightweight nonwovens. We select every component for reliability, low maintenance and optimal performance. Key design features include wrap angle adjustment, drive synchronisation, and soft belt materials that do not mark or compress the web. Our systems include sensors for accurate web loop control, and all accumulated webs are handled gently, keeping production safe during core changes or splicing. Closed guarding and easy service access support plant safety and fast routine checks. Customers benefit from precise low tension handling, reliable web break prevention and consistent quality, regardless of web composition or basis weight.

    How advanced handling improves meltblown and lightweight web outcomes

    • Gentle, stable transport: Soft belts and fine-tuned guides prevent edge cracks and surface scratches.
    • Dynamic tension management: Real-time feedback keeps web tension steady, reducing rejects.
    • Seamless buffer control: Web accumulators absorb process fluctuations and delays, supporting continuous operation.
    • Fast, accurate synchronisation: Control systems match accumulator and winder speed for clean roll starts and stops.
    • Flexible, modular design: Solutions fit diverse line layouts and changes in production demand.
    • Complete traceability: Data logging supports process validation and troubleshooting.

    Every meltblown web handling system is delivered with CE compliance, full documentation and clear instructions for maintenance. Reliability is at the core of every project, so you receive a robust, easy-to-use solution with minimal running costs and maximum production assurance. Meltblown webs, wetlaid or spunbond lines all benefit from careful, controlled accumulation and web handling tailored to their process.

    Experience, technical support and solutions for every project

    CAMPEN Machinery A/S provides more than equipment. Our technical team works with you to define specifications according to line speed, width, web characteristics and cleanliness targets. Each meltblown web handling unit is tested and verified before delivery to your plant. On-site support ensures quick start-up and reliable integration. Our experts partner with you from first contact to final handover, making sure your needs are met at all stages.
