CINCINNATI, Ohio—Ampac Flexibles, the flexible packaging division of Ampac Packaging LLC, announced the installation of a new Titan SR8™ Slitter Rewinder from Bobst Group at its Minneapolis, Minn., facility.
Installation of the Titan SR8 has given Ampac’s Minneapolis plant the ability to increase slitting speeds and produce larger roll sizes to meet the growing demands of rollstock customers. The new high-speed Titan SR8 operates at up to 700 meters per minute, with a semi-automatic unloading system, laser core positioning, and quick changeover. The Titan SR8 includes a modular format which facilitates future machine enhancements and upgrades to meet changing production requirements.
“The new Titan slitter allows us to continue building on our growth strategy of addressing customer needs and requirements by making strategic investments in our production facilities,” notes Sal Pellingra, Innovation and Marketing Director of Ampac Flexibles. “The improved output and efficiency also creates less waste and uses fewer resources, meeting our goals to continually reduce the impact on the local environments where we manufacture.”
