Voith installs VariFlex winder at Copamex's mill in Chihuahua, Mexico

Copamex installed a complete, new Voith VariFlex winder at its Chihuahua, Mexico, facility. With the new, reliable winder, Copamex has increased its process capacity while making improvements to the plant’s safety, Voith says in the press release received by Lesprom Network.

The Voith VariFlex winder, which has numerous installations worldwide, is an ideal fit based on Copamex’s expectations. Among the two-drum winder’s features are its easy web-threading, automated splice systems, one-step glue and perforation system, highly accurate slitters, vibration-controlling bearings and damping systems, and innovative automatic reel set changes.

A short delivery time was provided by the Voith team who designed, assembled and tested the components at their facility in Appleton, Wisconsin.
