ROTOCONTROL Enhances Operator Efficiency With Vacuum Splice Table

Online, May 26, 2011 (Newswire.com) - Marco Aengenvoort, ROTOCONTROL Managing Director, today announced the availability of the WC70 Vacuum Splice Table option on all ROTOCONTROL RSC and RSP slitting, rewinding and inspection machines taking Operator efficiency to a whole new level.

By automatically placing mill-splice/flags, matrix/missing labels and vision detected defects right on the vertical inspection plate for reworking, the Operator is only required to leave the rewind zone to change the master roll. The vacuum and mechanical clamping system holds the material in a vertical position at eye level directly in front of the Operator, assuring perfect splices for finished rolls every time.

Manohar Dhugga, ROTOCONTROL Field Applications Engineering Manager commented: "With over 15 years of engineering and field service experience, I can attest to the value of the Vacuum Splice Table option, specifically the ergonomic benefit it provides the Operator of the finishing machine. The waste rewind retracts after use to allow full access to the slitting system, enhancing Operator efficiency.
