Automated winding machine solutions for nonwovens and technical textiles

For over forty years, CAMPEN Machinery A/S has supplied automated winding machine solutions to manufacturers of nonwovens, geotextiles, technical textiles, and specialty films. Our focus is on robust engineering, consistently high quality, and low total operating costs. Each automated winding machine is designed to match your production line, supporting high uptime and precise roll handling. Our technical teams cooperate closely with you from initial concept through commissioning, ensuring each installation meets your process needs and product specifications.

Experience-driven winding solutions for demanding industries

A reliable automated winding machine forms the backbone of roll goods production. With decades of knowledge, CAMPEN delivers proven, easy-to-operate systems for centre-driven, surface-driven, or combined winding. Our servo-controlled technology maintains stable web tension, ideal for handling diverse materials and variable production speeds.

• Superior web tension systems support roll stability and protect sensitive nonwoven and film webs.
• Automatic roll change and splice features reduce downtime and manual intervention.
• Versatile slitting and rewinding enable precision roll widths across a range of textiles and films.
• Hot-melt tail sealing options for secure roll ends on technical and geotextile products.
• Integrated packaging and wrapping solutions streamline your end-of-line operations.

Our automated winding machine can process geotextiles, airlaid, spunlace, synthetic felts, artificial leather, fibreglass mats, and more. Each solution is adapted for your production targets—whether continuous in-line winding or flexible, stand-alone rewinding is required.

Enhanced roll quality, uptime, and safety

Consistent roll quality is achieved through advanced electronics and mechanical design. Servo drives and modern software keep process variables stable, even during high-speed acceleration and deceleration. Recipe-based HMI interfaces ensure quick and repeatable job changeovers, while advanced measurement and tension monitoring avoid defects and support traceability.

• Centralised controls simplify machine setup and reduce learning time for operators.
• Real-time diagnostics help your maintenance teams solve issues and keep uptime high.
• Automatic core loading and easy web threading limit manual processes and improve operator ergonomics.
• Protective covers and light curtains provide safety without hindering production access.
• Integrated lay-on systems help control roll density and improve finished roll appearance.

Safe operation is built into every CAMPEN winding machine. Straightforward maintenance intervals and long-term spare part support ensure reliable production for years. Clear visual interfaces and robust construction translate to easy cleaning and daily handling.

Flexible integration and future-ready features

Your production line is unique. We tailor each automated winding machine for your specific floorplan, upstream and downstream equipment, and material flow. Whether you need high-speed in-line winding or off-line slitting, the same reliable control platform is used throughout. Machines are prepared for modern connectivity and scalable automation.

• Wide range of working widths and roll diameters for both light and heavy materials.
• Modular automation upgrades for remote control, monitoring, and future expansion.
• Global delivery, efficient installation, and comprehensive training for a smooth start-up.
• Continuous service offers, including remote support and scheduled maintenance packages.
• Reinforced winders designed for geosynthetics, composites, and thick technical webs.
• Full integration with upstream lines and end-of-line packaging for efficient workflow.

Our winding systems can include integrated stretch film wrapping, automatic core insertion, and labelling for a streamlined finish. The CAMPEN team stands ready to support your project from feasibility studies to lifecycle service and upgrades.

Discuss your automated winding needs with experts

If you are specifying a new nonwoven line or upgrading older geotextile winding equipment, supply your targets for product type, roll width, diameter, weight, and speed. Our team will recommend a machine layout, automation level, and practical solutions for efficient operation and top product quality. We offer full documentation and clear project management, so you can operate your new equipment with confidence, safety, and low downtime.
