Integrated Web Converting Lines

Catbridge provides turnkey solutions for multifunction web converting systems. We handle all aspects of your project. This means designing the web process, selecting “building block” components, integrating Catbridge and outside vendor components, engineering drive controls, and providing complete factory acceptance testing.

We deliver comprehensive converting solutions for new and unique applications. We start with our high-performance unwinds and rewinds and seamlessly integrate components within a well-designed web path for additional converting functions. Some examples of our custom solutions include a variety of process lines for spray laminating, foil laminating, ultrasonic bonding, slot die coating, hot melt pattern coating, printing, extrusion, and meltblown production. We also build stand-alone slitter rewinders incorporating operations such as quality control, laminating, or embossing.
