Efficiency and productivity is the key for success. VENUS III.2 is equipped with following features increasing efficiency.
Automatic knife/blade positioning
ensures quick and precise knife setting.
Automatic laser core guiding
enables precise and very quick core setting for new jobs. The system uses data from the automatic knife positioning system.
Shaft-less unwinding
Shaft-less hydraulic tilting arms ensure easy parent roll handling.
Splicing table
A vacuum splicing table with two pneumatic holders and back-light desk enables easy and precise web splicing.
Unloading mechanism
delivers the finished slit rolls to a rotary stand. The stand rotates in a horizontal or vertical direction.
Recipe system
different working parameters are stored in the memory such as speed, tension, lay-on pressure, knife / blade setting and laser core guiding position information
Automatic cross slitting
cuts the web of the slit rolls during job changeover.
Strip holders
automatically hold the web in place and maintain the tension in slit strips during job changeover.

Be sure you slit with the best quality
The following features ensure perfect slit quality even when slitting very difficult substrates
Slitting techniques
A variable knife shaft permits tangential slitting with lower and upper rotary knives or with razor blades against grooved segment. For more difficult thin substrates it is possible to choose wrap around female knife slitting with rotary knives or with razor blades. It is also possible to combine rotary knives slitting and edge trimming via special additional razor blades.
Innovated Tenzomat III.2
The Tenzomat III.2 tension control system enables precise unwind and rewind tension control during the whole operating cycle in a closed loop and therefore slit very thin and difficult substrates. It offers two modes: A) Tension Preference - where Tenzomat III.2 automatically adjusts the speed to reach the highest possible tension or B) Max. Speed Preference - where Tenzomat III.2 automatically limits the tension in order to reach desired speed.
Special Applications
minimum gap winding for pressure-sensitive materials
torque rewinding shafts
solution for slitting of thin diaper materials - active separate lay-on rollers
Minimum gap winding
This rewinding technique is used to eliminate pressure of the lay-on rollers to the slit rolls. This type of rewinding is usually used for processing materials such as pressure sensitive, self adhesive, cold seal and special structures.
Torque rewinding
Torque rewinding with pneumatic expanding shafts is an alternative solution to friction ring rewinding and may be used for very narrow slit rolls of paper, when higher tension is needed.
Servo drives
The system includes 3 servo motors and optionally 4 servo motors. First motor drives main drive roller, lay-on rollers, knife shafts and banana roller. An unwind AC servo motor in combination with a dance roller control tension of parent roll. The third (and optional the fourth) AC servomotor drives both rewind shafts.
Banana roller
An adjustable angle, driven banana roller with hard grooved segments is positioned before the lower knife shaft.
Eccentric roller
An adjustable angle eccentric roller ensures web laying on the lower knife shaft during slitting of wrinkled material.
Angle adjustable roller
An adjustable guiding roller laterally balances the web and contributes to higher quality output during slitting from conical or low quality parent rolls.
Lay-on rollers
Lay-on rubber rollers on tilting arms are fixed on a rod with spring-loaded segments ensuring perfect contact between lay-on roller and finished reel.

Operate with comfort and safety
Following features ensure that slitter operation is simple, intuitive and safe.
Overhead web path
design suitable for pharmaceutical and food packaging where stringent hygiene and clean room standards are in force.
Intuitive control
Several panels help to operate the machine: 2 touch screen panels for rewinding and slitting, one panel in unwind section with portable control panel for parent roll loading.
CE standards
Machines comply with and meet stringent European safety standards and codes.
Safety features
Machines are designed with maximum emphasis on operator safety. All rotating elements in the slitting section are secured by safety covers and are inaccessible to the operator during the operating cycle. The rewind area is secured by a laser scanner.
Special applications
We modify slitters based on the specific needs for various applications - such as diaper membrane or perforated film for food packaging.

Bouncing designs
Flexo is very promissing technology, but has one weakness. Certain designs may generate vibrations due to rotational printing process of printed and non-printed area. Therefore we developed Advanced Bounce Control system, which guarantees minimal bounces at top speeds and perfect shape of the dot.
Short runs efficiency
Jobs are getting shorter and shorter in all areas of packaging due to many reasons such a packaging personification or extended number of flavours. We developed Optima especially for quick job change-overs featuring several unique systems such as IRIS, Falcon II or Ink Cartridge.
Expanded gamut printing
Some say that the future of flexo printing is Expanded Gamut Printing (7 color fixed pallete printing, without Pantone colors). Optima, with its modern inking system and very stable dot shape due to Advanced Bounce Control is ideal for EGP. You may than benefit of:
no wash ups and therfore savings on time, ink and plate
coprinting of several designs at the same time
Environmental printing
The future of our kids is important to us. We designed OPTIMA to handle all enviroment-friendly technologies such as water based printing, paper or biodegradable materials printing, EGP or energy cured inks.
ULTRA Technology
UV or UV LED inks are broadly used mainly in label segment. For those who want to benefit from this technology in mid-web or wide-web segment, OPTIMA is ideal solution.
