Web Handling Systems
Custom Web Handling Systems
EPIC Line Integration designs, assembles and automates web handling systems for the efficient processing of flexible materials along the production line. EPIC's web handling systems have the capability to control sheets of film, paper rolls and any woven or non-woven custom material. Systems can be tailored to transform raw supplies into finished sheets and incorporate coating, laminating, drying or any other process requirement for streamlined web production from pulling, processing to re-winding.
Using forward-thinking technology, EPIC's web handling systems bring an advanced level of speed and resourcefulness for any part of web manufacuturing systems and tension zones including unwind, intermediate, and rewind zones.
EPIC's Web Handling Systems Use Various Technologies Including:
- AC vector drive systems
- Automated motor speed control for dancer mechanism equilibrium
- Closed-loop tension control
- DC drive systems
- Electronic line shaft
- Multi-axis coordinated control
- Narrow web offset printing
- Post-extrusion tread draw
- Proportional automatic torque reduction based on decreasing roll diameter as measured by a mechanical rider arm or diameter sensor
- Safety film lamination
- Servo control
- Torque or speed control via load cell (tension transducer) and closed loop controller
- Wide web packaging film printing
EPIC's team of engineers will work with you to develop an original web handling system that will fit flawlessly on an existing production line. From experience working inside manufacturing facilities, our engineers know that web handling systems must work together with other machinery involved in the production process. To keep efficiency integrated throughout, we design web handling systems that meet your plant requirements to ensure sustained success.
