What is narrow web handling?
Narrow web handling refers to the process of managing and processing web materials (like films, labels, and flexible substrates) that are typically less than 30 inches wide. It involves unwinding, guiding, tension control, slitting, and rewinding narrow web materials during the printing or converting process.
What challenges are typically encountered in narrow web handling?
-
Tension fluctuations: Inconsistent tension control can cause wrinkles or breaks.
-
Web tracking and alignment: Keeping the web properly aligned is crucial to prevent misregistration and waste.
-
Material stretch: Certain materials, especially films, may stretch unevenly, leading to problems in printing or lamination.
-
Roll handling: The smaller diameter rolls used in narrow web processes can be tricky to manage, requiring specialized unwind and rewind systems.
-
How do you choose the right narrow web handling system?
Key considerations include:
-
Material type and thickness: Ensure the system can handle the specific material you’re working with.
-
Printing/processing speed: The system should meet your production speed requirements.
-
Automation features: Automation can help improve efficiency and reduce operator involvement, reducing the chance of errors.
-
Flexibility: The ability to handle different types of jobs, including short runs, is important.
-
Why is tension control important in narrow web handling?
Proper tension control ensures that the web material is consistently maintained at the right tension throughout the process. If the tension is too high or too low, it can lead to issues like web breaks, wrinkling, or misalignment, all of which impact the quality of the finished product.
