CSM Winder – Precision Engineering for Continuous Glass Mat Processing
CSM Winder is a reversing winder designed for continuous winding of chopped glass fiber mats, positioned at the end of the CSM (Chopped Strand Mat) production line. Engineered to meet specific manufacturing requirements, the winder can be configured from a basic setup to a fully automated system, including a roll handling section and winding shaft extractor.
Designed for versatility, the CSM Winder accommodates a wide range of mat thicknesses and supports both powder and emulsion binders. The machine can be equipped with advanced features such as:
- Compaction System – Utilizes a compactor roller to ensure uniform and dense winding for improved roll integrity.
- Edge Trimming with Automated Trim Extraction – Maintains clean and precise mat edges.
- Innovative Mechanical Tube Capture System – Uses a precision-engineered mechanism to securely capture the material tail without the need for adhesive or tape, ensuring reliable roll initiation.
- Fully Automated Mat Feeding During Start-Up – Ensures consistent material flow and compensates for variations in mat properties to maintain smooth operation.
- Longitudinal Slitting System – Allows real-time width adjustments for optimized material processing.
- Precision Cross-Cutting with Sampling Capability – Provides accurate trimming and quality control.
- Integrated Roll and Winding Shaft Handling – Streamlines production flow for maximum efficiency.
Since each CSM Automatic Winder is custom-tailored to specific production parameters, we welcome discussions to ensure all technical specifications align with operational needs.
