FILMEX II Stretch

FILMEX II Stretch - Highest production efficiency with most consistent film quality in the global industry

Stretch film is used as the most important method of unitizing product loads for transport. A lack of proper load securing may not only result in damage to the goods being transported, but also endangers the lives of road users. For a stable load, the consistency of the film properties in particular is a decisive criterion.

Prime performance along the entire value chain

The FILMEX II for stretch applications is part of a new generation of Windmöller & Hölscher cast film lines. The FILMEX II scores with an integrated FILM PERFORMANCE MONITOR (FPM), which constantly monitors the film production process and makes it transparent. Data from the FPM is recorded continuously during production and each roll is given a data matrix or QR code with its unique identification, including FPM quality data. Using this identification along with a suitable connection to the lab or downstream equipment, production can become more efficient. By creating a network of all process steps, the full production chain becomes transparent enabling targeted optimization of film production along the entire value chain - for high productivity, outstanding, consistent film quality and optimum performance in film processing.

Consistent reel quality

The FILMATIC PS Dual Turret Winder, specifically developed for stretch film applications, produces excellent rolls – an important requirement for optimal downstream processing. Two winding units positioned on top of each other in a laterally offset arrangement and the unique winding shaft bearing assembly as well as a dedicated slitting tension zones ensure perfect roll edges. Identical web paths through both winding units guarantee consistent roll quality. Furthermore, the FILMATIC PS offers a unique lay-on roll design for low unwind forces and homogeneous air distribution during complete reel build-up.
