About our Slitter/Rewinders, Unwinds, Cutters, Slitters

Slitting is an industrial technique that involves slicing rolls of material into narrower widths to make them compatible with roll-fed equipment such as die cutters, printers, and laminators. This process allows manufacturers to reduce expenses by purchasing standard-sized rolls and then tailoring them to precise dimensions as needed.

The act of cutting and resizing materials into smaller formats is widely known as converting. Slitting falls under this category, as it entails dividing large “master” or “parent” rolls into one or more slimmer rolls.

In production, master rolls are typically created in the largest feasible sizes. When these oversized rolls don’t align with specific needs, a slitting machine can adjust their width or even their length to suit the intended manufacturing process.
