Are you adding slitting to an existing process? | |
Are you considering modifying or replacing existing slitting equipment? If you are, it is always a good idea to send samples to your potential slitting equipment supplier. Generally speaking, slitting equipment suppliers have some amount of testing equipment at their facility. They can run your samples (even if it is just hand feeding them into a slitter) which will help to determine the best slitting solution for your web and process. When sending samples to a supplier make sure to send samples of all of the webs you will potentially run in your process. The slitting equipment supplier may recommend one or more slitting methods base solely on the samples they have in hand. Be very careful of selecting a slitting system for which samples have not been tested. | |
