TOPIC OUTLINE

• Basics of Web Control

An intense 3-day seminar and includes classroom, hands-on demonstration, and application activities.

A compilation of articles designed to help you understand the different methods of slitting and choose the best technique for your application, including:

The role of the knifeholder in productive shear slitting
Four factors to consider in razor slitting
Five factors to consider in choosing score slitting
Factors to consider in choosing shear blade profiles

Presented by Sean Craig, Winding Product Manager for Tidland Corporation, this seminar will be packed with useful information on how to optimize your winding process.

These days, to stay competitive you have to run multiple variations of material at increasingly shorter runs to turn a profit. To maintain consistent, high-quality output, there are adjustments that need to be made on the unwind through tension, alignment, slitting setup and possibly even the rewind.

In this e-Seminar, Darrell Whiteside of MAGPOWR provides an easy-to-understand overview of the tension process and gets into some of the latest technologies on how to implement proper tension on a process line. He also dives into the question on taper tension as his company receives this as the most commonly asked question for their support staff.

This new one-hour e-Seminar will teach new slitter operators about the six critical factors that ensure a perfect cut (the science part) and how these factors change depending upon today's latest materials (the art part).
