Introducing the KSI-1000: The Ultimate in Web Slitting
The KSI-1000 is a mid-web label slitting and rewinding machine with integrated quality assurance. This machine is encased in a compact overhead solution making for a smaller carbon footprint than individual in-line units. It’s design makes it easy to operate and gives easy access to splice tables and slitting sections.
The KSI-1000 is available for 800 and 1000 mm web width, and has an operating speed of up to 400 m/min. The process is monitored and has an advanced fully automatic closed loop tension control, making sure that the web is slit and rewound with precision. To make the operation of the machine easier Karlville has created a smart controller. The controller is synchronized with smart software accurately counts labels, protects against multi-lane missing label direction, tags direction, and matrix waste calculations.
The quality assurance on this machine is brought by the Apollo 100 % Turbo which includes an inspection camera directly on the press and rewind side that detects print defects, including color variations, doctor blade streaks, misprints, low contrast defects, mis-registration, spots, splashes and more. It’s horizontal orientation allows for immediate detection of defects. With the multi-loop overhead web path a detected defect is removed on the second easily accessible splice table.
If you’re looking for paper, film and foil converting equipment look no further. Karlville is your reliable source for your converting needs and web slitting.
