As its production demand was growing, Terawin Printing needed a more advanced and highly automated slitting machine to help them increase operation productivity at their plant. They also needed a solution that could deliver high-quality printing tasks while reducing job loading time.

Soma Engineering’s Venus III 1350 Turret proved a perfect solution for them. The machine’s advanced capabilities were able to provide their customer with the highly automated slitting machine needed to improve their production output and increase productivity.

Besides being easy to operate, the machine is designed especially for large converting companies that need multiple slitting of medium diameter rolls. With features like automatic knife/blade positioning that ensure quick and precise knife setting to automatic laser core guiding, the system also features four-shaft turret systems that provide fully automatic job change over and non-stop operation.

Other features crucial to meet the customer’s requirements include automatic tape application, shaft-less unwinding, splicing table, unloading mechanism, recipe system and automatic cross slitting.

The machine has been in operation since it got successfully installed at the customer’s premises. Since then, Terawin Printing has recorded faster production time and achieved higher cost savings due to improved overall efficiency.

DKSH is also working with them on future flexible packaging solutions for their operations.

“We needed a new machine and solutions to help us increase our operational productivity and at the same time, speed up processing time and increase overall efficiency. DKSH’s solutions and automated slitting machine is proving to be the perfect fit for us,” says a Representative of Terawin Printing.
