Machine Description
High-precision Converting Machine for Paper, Board and Cigarette Paper.
The slitter rewinder RAPID is based on the center driven rewinding and features a unique slitting concept with perfect roll separation that makes it really exceptional for narrow slits. It represents a long-lasting success story: more than 2,500 machines have already been built for applications all over the world, processing a wide variety of materials such as standard, cigarette and special papers, cardboard and packaging materials.
The right solution for any requirement: RAPID D1 is the most common version, while RAPID A is partially automated for higher productivity and is ideal for short runs by drastically reducing slitter down time. This high-precision slitter rewinder enables modular configuration.
- Narrow cuts from 5 mm
- Winding diameter up to 1,000 mm
- Optimum separation of finished rolls
- Extremely high print-to-cut accuracy
- Efficient drive system
- Ergonomic machine concept and easy maintenance
Unique Machine Design – Versatile, Flexible Applications for Converters
Converters of paper, cardboard and composite materials face the daily challenge of being able to flexibly and quickly meet the individual requirements of their customers, processing a wide variety of materials and at the same time meeting the high quality expectations even for small batch sizes. Standardized cutting and winding solutions are not enough. For this purpose, machines are needed that meet almost every wish in terms of flexibility and operation. Accordingly, the converter needs a supplier who has both the technical solution and implementation as well as know-how.
Therefore, we at GOEBEL IMS have launched the multi-channel campaign ‘Tailor-made Converting’. As a specialist for machines for the processing of web-shaped materials, we would like to draw attention to our many years of expertise in the production of special machines for the converting industry.
At the heart of the campaign is a video production that creatively translates GOEBEL IMS’ commitment to developing, designing and producing customized machines for slitting and winding technology. The movie is as unique as the slitter rewinder RAPID D1, the main character of the campaign. Discover the campaign Tailor-made Converting yourself.
