Shaft Structure & Winding Function

Controlled winding torque for medium-tension slit rolls.

Suitable for automatic roll loading and unloading, medium-tension film slitting and flexible packaging laminate rewinding.

  • Center-air-pressure slip shaft with pneumatic locking and pneumatic slip.
  • Provides accurate torque and precise tension control over a broad range. Starting working pressure is generally higher than low-tension slip shaft designs.
  • The core remains stable and does not shift or loosen during forward and reverse rotation.
  • A practical option where stable core holding and controlled winding torque are required.

  • 6-inch ring inner diameter is 70 mm with standard 40 mm width.

Selection Notes

Confirm core material, core inner diameter, required width, winding tension range, shaft structure and whether the application needs low starting tension or higher roll-holding force.

Technical Reference Data

Pull force and air pressure reference values for preliminary selection.

Reference values should be confirmed according to the actual shaft structure, ring width, core material and air path before final selection.
