USED PCMC CALYPSO WET WIPES LINE. THE MACHINE IS SUPPLIED WITH AN IN-LINE BELT DRIVEN UNWIND STAND CAPABLE OF ACCEPTING PARENT ROLLS UP TO 60” (1.5M) IN DIAMETER AND WIDTHS OF 34” (863MM). THE UNWIND IS SUPPLIED WITH ONE CORE SHAFT AND TWO CORE PLUGS FOR A 3” (76MM) INSIDE DIAMETER CORE TO HOLD THE PARENT ROLL IN PLACE IN THE UNWIND STAND. THE UNWIND INCLUDES A MANUAL SIDE SHIFT MECHANISM TO ALIGN THE PARENT ROLL WITH THE FOLDING PLATES. THE PARENT ROLL IS UNWOUND BY MEANS OF A SURFACE DRIVE BELT ARM. A FOXBORO CONSTANT TENSION SYSTEM, WITH DANCER ROLL SUPPLIED TO AID IN CONTROL OF WEB TENSIONS DURING THE UNWINDING OF THE PARENT ROLL. THIS HELPS TO COMPENSATE FOR ANY MIS-TENSION THAT MAY BE WOUND INTO THE PARENT ROLL, AND IS PARTICULARLY IMPORTANT, AS MOISTENED WEBS TEND TO CHANGE IN LENGTH WHEN THE FLUID IS APPLIED.
MACHINE FEATURES:
UNWIND: DUAL POSITION TURRET STYLE UNWIND WITH ONE (1) RUN POSITION AND ONE (1) ROLL READY POSITION. UPON EXPIRATION OF THE RUNNING ROLL, THE UNWIND IS INDEXED 180 DEGREES TO BRING THE NEW ROLL INTO POSITION. EXPIRED ROLL CAN THEN BE REPLACED WITH NEW PARENT ROLL. ALSO INCLUDED IS AN OUTBOARD BEARING SUPPORT FOR THE UNWIND CORE SHAFT.
SLITTING SYSTEM: IDLING SHEAR TYPE SLITTER ASSEMBLY IS PROVIDED TO DIVIDE THE PARENT TOLL INTO EQUAL WIDTHS.
WETTING SYSTEM: ONE (1) WEEP TYPE FLUID APPLICATION SYSTEM FOR ADDING MOISTURE TO THE PASSING WEB COMPLETE WITH STAINLESS STEEL FEED PUMP, DUAL WETTING TUBES (TO WET BOTH SIDES OF WEB), STAINLESS STEEL CATCH PAN AND PUMP CONTROLS (DOES NOT INCLUDE THE FLUID SUPPLY SYSTEM).
FORMING STATION: ONE (1) AUTOMATIC FOLDER DESIGNED FOR PRODUCING 6” (153MM) TO 9” (228MM) NOMINAL CUTOFF LENGTH BY 5.75” (146MM) TO 8.5” (215MM) SLIT WIDTH TOWELS FOLDED TO 3” (77MM) TO 4.5” (114MM) WIDE AND CROSSFOLDED TO 3” (77MM) TO 4.5” (114MM). FOLDER TO INCLUDE INFEED DRAW ROLLS WITH IDLING SHEAR CENTER SLITTER, LONGITUDINAL FORMING PLATE ASSEMBLIES, VARIABLE SPEED DRAW ROLLS, ROTARY CUTOFF SYSTEM, MECHANICAL CROSSFOLDING SYSTEM, PACKER SYSTEM OPERATING IN TIME WITH FOLDER, AUTOMATIC DISCHARGE AND COUNT SYSTEM.
COLLATING CONVEYOR: THE COLLATING CONVEYOR CONSISTS OF TWO (2) SERVO CONTROLLED CONVEYORS THAT RECEIVE THE CROSSFOLDED PRODUCT STACKS FROM THE FOUR (4) LANES OF THE CROSSFOLDER. SERVO CONTROL OF EACH CONVEYOR IS FULLY INTEGRATED INTO THE EXISTING CONTROLS OF THE CROSSFOLDER.
CONTROLS: ONE (1) 7.5HP VARIABLE FREQUENCY AC MAIN DRIVE MOTOR AND CONTROLS INCLUDING COMPLETE CONTROL CABINET.

STACK WIDTH
THE STACK WIDTH IS A FUNCTION OF FOLDED WIDTH, PRODUCT SKEW AT TUCKER, AND STACKER TOLERANCE.
STACK WIDTH = FOLDED WIDTH + 2MM (SKEW TOLERANCE) + 4MM (STACKER TOLERANCE).
EXAMPLE:
FOLDED WIDTH = 78MM
STACK WIDTH = 76-84MM
STACK LENGTH
STACK LENGTH IS A FUNCTION OF CUTOFF LENGTH, CUTOFF TOLERANCE, CROSS-FOLD TOLERANCE AND STACKER TOLERANCE (LEADING EDGE VARIATION).
STACK LENGTH = CUTOFF LENGTH/2 + 1MM (CUTOFF TOLERANCE/2) + 3MM (CROSS-FOLD TOLERANCE) + 6MM (STACKER TOLERANCE LEADING EDGE VARIATION).
EXAMPLE:
CUTOFF LENGTH = 195MM
STACK LENGTH = 195/2 + 1 + 3 + 6 = 97.5 – 107.5MM
