Rewind Station
The CF1000PM is a low cost, press mounted module for customers that want to create these effects with minimal cost in a fixed location. The unit has many of the features of the popular CF1000 module including foil saving, tension control and rapid set up.
Our loading system eliminates heavy lifting of reels and shafts for complete safety, reducing set up time dramatically.
Reel Loading
The rewind shafts remain in the module and are cantilevered for the loading / unloading of reels. The manipulator lifts the reels from the floor automatically and aligns with the shaft for the rapid and safe loading of single or multiple reels.
Once loaded, the reels and cores can be positioned quickly and accurately using the lazer guiding system. Splice tables are conveniently located to join the web to the previous run, eliminating thread up.
Rewind System
Both Rewind and Unwind are driven using the latest digital drive technology for perfect tension control and multiple passes of cold and cast and cure film.
The coated side of the foil does not touch any rollers above the press and a shutter guard encloses them completely during operation to prevent foil contamination in the press.
The module automatically synchronises with the press speed leaving the operator to focus on their normal duties.
Foil saving
The CF1000 produces a high quality finished roll after the foiling process for multiple passes through the press when the pattern permits. The CF1000 has three options for foil saving which can be selected depending on the pattern/coverage to increase foil yield and reduce costs.
