Since the 1970s, CAMPEN Machinery A/S has delivered reliable, robust, and easy-to-operate equipment for nonwoven production. Our web accumulator design leverages decades of process experience and engineering expertise. Each solution is adapted to protect delicate nonwoven webs, stabilise operation, and improve roll-to-roll handling. With our focus on practical engineering and close customer collaboration, we help you achieve higher process safety, consistent product quality, and fewer stops ahead of the winder. We combine direct dialogue, practical design, and hands-on commissioning to deliver dependable results for your production needs.
Sensitive nonwoven materials—such as meltblown, wetlaid, and lightweight spunbond—demand precise web handling to prevent product damage. Even minor tension fluctuations may result in web breaks, process interruptions, or reduced efficiency. A CAMPEN web accumulator design based on belt accumulator principles introduces low-tension, buffered accumulation with smooth, controlled synchronisation to the winder. This design effectively isolates process variations, minimises fibre stress, and maintains stable web conditions through roll changes and splicing operations.
The result is maximised yield, reliable productivity, and a more stable operation for your team. Operators experience a repeatable process, easy machine control, and fewer unplanned interventions. Whether running short batches or continuous long runs, utilising a sophisticated web accumulator design helps balance production flow and downstream demands—protecting both material and output targets.
We engineer belt accumulator and web accumulator systems tailored specifically for sensitive and lightweight nonwovens. Wide belt support provides even web tension while minimising pressure points. Our loop control and automation maintain precise web tension, allowing seamless buffer accumulation or release. Each design is synchronised to coordinate with upstream machinery and the winder for a controlled process from start to roll changeover.
Every project begins with a technical assessment: we evaluate web width, basis weight, speeds, and available space. The system layout, belt properties, roller selection, sensor configuration, and automation are then specified for your production goals. Designs are always robust and simple to operate—supporting the daily performance demands of modern nonwoven lines.
Our experienced engineering team understands the production requirements and challenges faced in meltblown, wetlaid, spunbond, and related nonwoven processes. Implementing a robust web accumulator design involves not only hardware—it requires planning for control stability, operator safety, and long-term maintainability from project kick-off.
We deliver comprehensive support throughout the lifecycle: from machine layout and safety assessment to FAT, SAT, and operator training. Our aftersales services—spare parts, remote support, upgrades—keep your investment safe and efficient over many years. With proven references worldwide since 1970, CAMPEN delivers reliable equipment, expert project management, and focused service to every customer regardless of project size or complexity.
If you handle delicate or light nonwovens prior to winding, CAMPEN’s web accumulator design is engineered to maintain low tension, stable buffering, and reduced web break risk. Share your material data, speed requirements, and available floor space with our technical team. We will propose a robust, user-friendly solution that fits your manufacturing objectives.
