Slitting is a vital process at Foamtec, allowing us to convert large rolls of material into narrower, custom-sized rolls for various industrial applications. This process is essential for optimizing material usage and ensuring that the materials meet the precise specifications required in industries such as packaging, printing, paper manufacturing, metalworking, and textiles.

Our Process
Uncoiling
A large roll of material, such as paper, film, metal, or cloth, is loaded onto an uncoiler. This machine carefully unwinds the material and feeds it into the slitting machine for precise cutting.
Slitting
As the material moves through the slitting machine, it is cut by sharp circular knives or blades into narrower rolls. These rolls are customized to the specific widths required for each application.
