Third EG-9000 Spooling Slitter Rewinder Installed at a Southern Italy Converter for Adhesive Packaging Applications
Case Study 2025-06-25
A leading film and tape converter based in Southern Italy has recently trialed its third EG-9324 (EG-9000 series) Spooling Slitter Rewinder. This precision slitter is specially engineered for narrow-width slitting and long-length spooling of OPP and PET films, commonly used in printed adhesive packaging tapes, flexible laminates, and labelstock applications. This latest investment continues a trusted collaboration that began in 2017.
Slitting Solution for Adhesive Printed Films
The converter required stable and clean slitting of printed films with adhesive backing, typically OPP or PET structures. Narrow slit widths often generate excessive noise and require precise tension control, particularly on side trims and narrow tape strips. To solve these challenges in high-precision slitting and rewinding, the EG-9324 Spooling Slitter Rewinder was upgraded with enhanced features optimized for adhesive tape converting applications:
- Anti-stick roller coatings for sticky surfaces
- Low-noise structural design to support operator comfort
- Multi-roll traversing rewind system, allowing up to 8 spooled rolls per cycle on a single shaft.
- Upgraded safety light curtain for enhanced workplace protection.
- Increased maximum speed, upgraded from 200 m/min to 300 m/min.

Customer Testimonial & Long-Term Value
This customer first adopted the EG-9000 platform in 2017. After nearly eight years of continuous use, their first machine remains in excellent working condition. Thanks to the company’s strict adherence to equipment maintenance and their well-managed production environment.
Their decision to invest in a third unit reflects both satisfaction with the machine’s long-term reliability and their growing need for high-efficiency spooling of complex materials.
