Model EP Jr. Shaftless Unwind for Flexo Presses

Upgrade your flexo press by going SHAFTLESS on both ends, Unwind AND Rewind!

Powell Engineering, Inc.’s shaftless stands are a proven cost effective way to increase production and safety for flexo press installations. Shaftless operation speeds loading and unloading of rolls and eliminates shaft related costs and injuries. Unwinds are braked and rewinds are wound with a custom sized motor/ gearbox package. Wound rolls are simply set down onto the floor, pallet or roll cart. Unwind rolls are lifted directly from the floor.

Staged rolls keep your machinery from being dependant on other equipment for roll changes. If your press speed is the bottleneck and safety is a concern then this system is an excellent solution.

Roll to roll printing is ideal for this setup. This is where the shaftless design yields the highest production for your press. Lines requiring slitting prior to rewind may be accommodated in some cases through the use of a special shaft accommodation adapter, a differential rewind shaft and bowed rolls to accomplish the required separation.

Join the field of operators who have learned that the benefits of going shaftless are no longer limited to unwinding.
