Cantilevered Slitter Technology

Cantilevered slitters by definition are machines with rewind shafts that are supported on one end of the slitter rewinder. The rewind shafts on Deacro’s cantilevered slitter rewinder machines are literally supported during the run-time for optimum performance.

When the rewind set is finished, the shaft supports lower out of the way. This allows the finished rolls to be easily removed and gives the operator easy access to place new cores on the rewind shaft. Because the rewind shafts lower automatically, operators never need to handle heavy shafts or tooling. This automated procedure results in improved ergonomics. Cantilevered slitter rewinders tend to be the most popular in the converting industry due to the reduced down-time between sets.
