W&H Corporation announces new
FILMATIC TX Winder
The FILMATIC TX dual turret winder is capable of a roll
diameter measuring up to 47”
LINCOLN, RI, March 2006 – Windmoeller & Hoelscher
Corporation announces its latest in winder technology: the FILMATIC
TX. The TX dual turret winder is an evolution of the FILMATIC
T turret
winder. Like the FILMATIC T,
the TX winder also features center, gap and reverse winding capabilities,
as well as adhesive-free web transfer. However, it is the FILMATIC TX’s “X”-tra
large roll diameter that sets it apart from its predecessor: the
TX winder features a roll diameter of either 40” or 47” (whereas
the T winder is capable of 31.5”).
One further distinction in the FILMATIC TX (over its FILMATIC
T forerunner) is the winder’s floor configuration. The FILMATIC
TX is available in a face-to-face or back-to-back configuration
that
places the two winders alongside one another; whereas, the
FILMATIC T is available in a stacked format with one winder situated
on top of the other.
With the FILMATIC TX winder, it is still possible to deliver
the reels by hoist if the roll diameter is 40”.
For roll
diameters measuring 47”, a delivery arm is needed for removal.
Both the FILMATIC T and FILMATIC TX winders are equipped with
a 17” windows-based touch
screen similar to the main operator
panel.
