Tissue Converting Line PLC, Servo & Mechanical Retrofit
Avoid excessive capital expenditures on brand new production lines. MTO Makine retrofits 10-to-20-year-old tissue rewinders and log saws with cutting-edge multi-axis servo drives and touchscreens, restoring speed and product quality.
How Our Machine Modernization Program Works
We replace sluggish mechanical gear trains, worn chain drives, and obsolete proprietary control boards with modern off-the-shelf servo controllers, electronic cams, and touchscreens.
- Complete Mechanical Overhaul: Precision dynamic balancing of rollers, replacement of all bearings, seals, and drive pulleys.
- Electronic Cam & Servo Conversion: Replaces rigid mechanical cams with independent servo motors, allowing digital recipe changes in seconds.
- Modernized Safety Controls: Updates aging lines to current international CE machinery safety directives with monitored safety circuits.
- Significant Speed Increases: Elevate aging 150 m/min lines up to 300+ m/min reliable continuous operation.
