Reliable nonwoven belt accumulator for efficient web handling

For over five decades, CAMPEN Machinery A/S has supported nonwoven producers with reliable, easy-to-operate lines designed for efficiency and consistent product quality. Sensitive webs and strict uptime requirements demand robust solutions. Our nonwoven belt accumulator is developed for low-tension web handling, enhancing your process stability and ensuring predictable, safe changeovers. Drawing on extensive experience, we combine engineering quality with straightforward operation, helping you eliminate web breaks, maintain high product standards and optimise line efficiency.

Optimising your process with advanced belt accumulation

Handling lightweight or delicate nonwovens—such as spunbond, meltblown, and wetlaid materials—requires precision. Our nonwoven belt accumulator serves as an effective buffer ahead of the winder, letting you complete core changes or splicing without tension peaks or production stops. This robust solution reduces stress on the web, minimises defects, and decreases waste, creating a smoother, more efficient production flow.

Our belt accumulator technology uses synchronised drives, guided belts, and modern loop control systems to support consistent, low-tension accumulation. Synchronisation with your winder further reduces downtime and helps maintain product quality. Operators benefit from intuitive controls, secure guarded access, and clear, recipe-driven settings—ensuring reliable results shift after shift, regardless of operator experience.

Main advantages you gain from a nonwoven belt accumulator

Stable, low web tension protects against breaks, tears and fibre displacement.
Gentle belt interaction preserves surface integrity and supports optimal filtration.
Accurate loop and tension control maintains coating weights and reduces speed deviations.
Precise winder coordination decreases waste during roll changes and startups.
Reliable buffering increases uptime and helps avoid unplanned halts.
Adaptable, modular format fits seamlessly into most roll-to-roll handling systems.

Building reliability and user-friendliness into every accumulator

All components in a CAMPEN nonwoven belt accumulator are selected for high reliability and easy maintenance. Sturdy frames, long-life belts, and precision motion controls create a safe and stable environment for your line. Rollers, belt materials and guiding solutions are customised to your product specification and line speed. The focus is always on maximising availability, low ownership cost and smooth, continuous web handling.

Each feature translates directly into operational value. The control system ensures steady speed and optimal web tension. Integrated edge guiding minimises wrinkles for consistent roll quality. Anti-static options are available for sensitive materials to prevent dust buildup and reduce spark risk. Flexible safety guarding and CE-compliant design provide secure machine access and operator protection.

Application-specific configuration for nonwoven production

Variable widths and accumulation volumes tailored to your web size and speed.
State-of-the-art loop and web tension management assures process stability, even during unplanned stops.
Edge control and web spreading help reduce trim waste and improve final roll appearance.
Optional electrostatic discharge features improve operator safety and product cleanliness.
User-friendly recipe management makes changeovers faster and more accurate.
Remote diagnostics and support options lower service costs and reduce downtime.

End-to-end service from design through lifetime support

Our expertise starts with understanding your web path, production targets, and overall line design. Each nonwoven belt accumulator is engineered for your web dimensions and production speed, integrating seamlessly with your upstream and downstream equipment. We develop reliable control sequences to match your line’s choreography—managing tension and accumulation smoothly during product changes, splicing or emergency stops.

CAMPEN manages every stage, from project design and in-house testing to installation and operator training. Thorough safety and performance validation is standard. After commissioning, we support you with rapid-response service, spare parts and technology upgrades to preserve your investment. Our long-standing presence in the nonwoven sector means you benefit from solutions that prioritise uptime and operational efficiency from the outset.
