THT splicer
THT splicer
The highest performing splicer on the market.
There are two versions of the THT splicer. The THT-90 with a splicing speed of up to 650 m/min (2130 fpm) and the THT-130 capable of working up to 1000 m/min (3280 fpm). It is ideal for paper, cardboard and other rigid materials such as paper laminates used in printing, extrusion, lamination processes, etc.
THT is suitable for working with turret and floor pick-up unwinders. In its standard configuration it includes:
Butt Splice Unit
With vertical adjustment through spindles and vacuum system that allow a simple and ergonomic preparation.
Multiple Roll Festoon
Stores enough paper to feed the line during the splicing process, without the need to reduce the working speed. In many applications, carbon fiber rolls are used to reduce inertia of the system.
Pull and Brake
Controls web tension throughout the entire unwinding process. To control the band tension even when unwinding until the end of the paper.
Dancer Roll
Located at the festoon exit, the dancer works in conjunction with the Pull and Brake to maintain constant web tension throughout the unwinding process.
Motorized Photocells
Several sets of motorized photoeyes are included on the THT. The first set ensures that the new reel is aligned with the running web. A second set is to signal a web break. Finally, a third photoeye provides a visual guide for the operator to quickly and accurately prepare the splice.
Remaining Paper Clamp
Holds and removes the paper tail that remains when running paper “off the core.”
Aluminum Platform
Allows access for maintenance to the main parts of the machine.
