    Advanced roll slitting and winding technology for high-quality production

    web accumulator solutions for nonwoven production

    For over 50 years, CAMPEN Machinery A/S has supported nonwoven producers in achieving safer, faster, and higher-quality production. Our web accumulator solutions are based on decades of experience and in-depth engineering knowledge. Each web accumulator is designed to deliver reliable buffering and stable, low-tension web handling tailored to your production line, winder, and specific process needs. We focus on robust mechanics, precise automation, and technical partnership from initial discussion through commissioning.

    Enhancing production stability and quality with advanced web buffer solutions

    Our belt-driven web accumulator is engineered for delicate and lightweight nonwoven materials. It acts as a controlled buffer before your winder, minimising tension peaks during roll changes and reducing web breaks. This system promotes low tension web handling, resulting in consistent quality and less waste.

    • Gentle accumulation prevents fibre deformation and web surface imperfections.
    • Reduces micro-tears and tension surges, especially during roll changeovers.
    • Maintains synchronisation between the running web and downstream winding system.
    • Belt-based support accommodates meltblown, wetlaid, spunbond, and filtration media.
    • Enables reliable high-speed transfers and roll-to-roll management.
    • Intuitive operation ensured via a clear HMI and programmable recipes.

    We customise every web accumulator to match your line requirements, including speed, web width, and storage capacity. Additional features such as anti-static systems, automated edge guiding, easy cleaning, and advanced data connections can be specified. Compliance with EU machinery safety standards is guaranteed, protecting operators throughout use. Discover more about our web buffer technologies at CAMPEN web accumulator.

    Optimising nonwoven line continuity and tension management

    During production, the web travels onto the web accumulator’s moving belt, offering continuous, full-length support. Feedback mechanisms—using dancers or load cells—monitor and adjust belt speed and web tension with high precision. The controller links directly with both upstream and downstream equipment to keep web movement stable during stops, starts, and roll indexing.

    Designed for fragile nonwovens, laminates, and filtration products

    Our web accumulator is purpose-built for meltblown webs, low basis weight spunbond, composite layers, medical media, and filtration nonwovens.

    • Extra-wide belt minimises point loads, preventing edge damage and creasing.
    • Accurate loop control technology keeps tension within the process window.
    • Smooth, open-frame design helps control dust accumulation and ensures easy maintenance.
    • Efficient, frequency-controlled drives reduce power usage while maintaining operational stability.
    • Fast fill/empty cycles enable seamless roll changes even at high web speeds.

    Suitable for continuous, semi-continuous, and batch processes, our web accumulator ensures safe and smooth transitions—particularly for sensitive, lightweight materials.

    Decades of expertise in web handling and process integration

    CAMPEN has delivered high-precision nonwoven machinery—including advanced web accumulator systems—since the 1970s. Our projects reflect deep process understanding and rigorous engineering standards. Each web accumulator system is thoroughly tested for mechanical durability and uninterrupted line operation. Our team collaborates closely with your engineers from concept through final acceptance.

    • Process simulation and trials define the best tension parameters and belt configurations.
    • 3D system layouts ensure easy access for cleaning and safety compliance.
    • Open, modular PLC-based controls enable fast line integration and remote troubleshooting.
    • Comprehensive remote support and efficient spare parts logistics reduce production downtime.
    • Structured operator training improves handling safety and minimises mistakes.

    We specialise in serving the filtration, hygiene, medical, and industrial nonwoven sectors, providing reliable throughput, repeatable performance, and strong cost control. Every web accumulator is engineered for high uptime and low-maintenance, clean operation—optimised for your materials and production targets.

    Custom configuration for your specific nonwoven production needs

    Each production line requires its own web accumulator solution. We adapt our design to your speed, space, product characteristics, and quality requirements. Available options include special belts, roller coatings, and hygiene-friendly finishes. The system links seamlessly to edge guidance, inspection, and integrated tension management for reliable, consistent output.

    • Correctly sized buffer capacity balances your line without excessive footprint.
    • Protection logic reduces web breaks and raw material waste at every transition.
    • Advanced controls help maintain basis weight stability and excellent roll profiles.
    • Industry-standard connectivity for real-time OEE monitoring and full process traceability.

    Project success is built on shared targets: we define parameters and acceptance criteria before manufacturing. Factory and onsite testing ensures compliance and full functionality. The result is a web accumulator system that improves your uptime, reduces operator intervention, and supports your production goals.
