Since the 1970s, CAMPEN Machinery A/S has delivered robust off-line winding for flexible production to nonwoven and technical textile manufacturers. These winding systems allow for format changes, protect sensitive materials, and maximise line uptime by separating slitting and rewinding from the main process. Our engineering team combines practical industry knowledge with advanced automation to deliver equipment that is reliable, easy to operate, and focused on consistent output quality. Every system is backed by strong aftersales service and technical support.
Our winding solutions are developed for both in-line and off-line use. If your production requires frequent roll changes, tailored roll dimensions, or product inspection, off-line winding for flexible production optimises output without interrupting the main line. This ensures steady slitting, rewinding, and careful tension control for precise edge quality and dependable operation—vital for nonwoven processing and technical textiles.
Modern nonwoven lines often need to handle various product formats, changeovers, and demanding schedules. Off-line winding for flexible production brings clear process advantages by enabling independent roll finishing. Operators can schedule slitting and rewinding based on customer orders, not only on the pace of web formation. This shortens main-line downtime, simplifies planning, and supports rapid format change.
Our off-line winding solutions can be equipped with shear, razor, or crush slitting technology. In-line inspection modules provide traceability and support documentation. If capacity needs grow, extra shifts on the off-line cell can increase finished roll output without any main-line stoppage. This approach often leads to lower costs per finished roll and ensures on-time deliveries in dynamic market conditions.
Every nonwoven, hygiene, or technical textile application requires careful equipment design. CAMPEN develops each off-line winding installation for your specific materials, process speed, and roll specifications. Tension control systems—using load cells or dancer arms—keep delicate webs stable, minimising risk to lightweight or sensitive fabrics. Precise web guidance ensures straight cuts and consistent roll build-up for every batch.
Operator interfaces are easy to use, allowing quick recipe changes, slitting setup, and tension zone adjustment. Remote access functions make fast service and troubleshooting possible. All machines meet EU safety standards and use protective guarding and interlocks as needed. Existing winders can also be upgraded for better energy efficiency and improved tension or web guidance.
CAMPEN has decades of experience serving wipes, hygiene, filtration, and industrial textile manufacturers worldwide. We manage every step, from design and manufacturing to testing, installation, and training. This integrated approach ensures reliable project delivery and a direct point of contact for your team.
From fast in-line conversion to advanced off-line winding for flexible production, we help manufacturers improve roll reliability, product quality, and operational safety. Our systems can also include unwinding, accumulators, guiding, and inspection according to your process flow. Our aim is always clear: robust, stable roll-to-roll converting with minimal waste and maximum efficiency.
