Rewinders
Specifically designed for the specialized requirements of the digital, label and package printing market, the Contiweb CR series of modular rewinders consists of two models to cater for entry-level manual rewind capabilities (CR-W) and fully automatic rewinding at full press speed (CR-N). Whatever the level of automation required, the rewinders feature proven Contiweb precision engineering to ensure accuracy and repeatability at every stage of the process.

CR-N
The top-of-the-range CR-N rewinder is a fully automatic model, that ensures perfectly rewound reels without interrupting production, thanks to the zero-speed concept. With the press in production, the running and new web are brought to a halt during the splice cycle, during which time the press is fed from the integrated festoon. The automatic splice can be made at production speed, at any reel diameter and at any time. Unloading fully wound reels and preparation of cores is also possible during production.
The CR-N offers additional optional functionalities common to the full CR range, including integrated electronic web tension control at outfeed, web guide, and slitter before the splice. With the integration of the slitter, printers can slit the web in ribbons with variable web widths before the splice, without interrupting production. While slitting, it is possible to splice and switch from one reel to the next.
