The JRW 1550
in detail.
The Jumbo Roll Winder JRW 1550 was developed specifically for handling jumbo rolls in large format printing (LFP) and in downstream finishing processes. As a multifunctional solution, the JRW 1550 can be used both as an unwinder for feeding material into printers and as a rewinder behind printing or laminating systems. Designed to be mobile on casters, the system can be moved flexibly and locked precisely in the required position via mechanical stations.
Thanks to its self-contained control via a dancer-roller system, no electrical interface to the main machine's PLC is required; material flow is regulated purely by tension, with the JRW 1550 maintaining constant web tension at all times. This enables the efficient processing of rolls weighing up to 700 kg and up to 60 cm in diameter. Using jumbo rolls of up to 1,500 lm cuts material costs through bulk stock, optimises freight costs on direct imports and minimises the material loss typical of roll changes.
Whether as a self-contained unwinder or a robust rewinding unit for laminating systems, the JRW 1550 maximises productive machine uptime in shift operation.
What the JRW 1550 can do.
All features come as standard — no list of paid options, no hidden licence costs. What you see is what you get.
- Multifunctional — usable both as an unwinder for feeding material and as a rewinder behind printing or laminating systems.
- Self-contained dancer-roller control — no electrical interface to the main machine's PLC needed; regulated purely by tension at constant web tension.
- For jumbo rolls up to 700 kg and 600 mm in diameter — jumbo rolls of up to 1,500 lm cut material and freight costs and minimise material loss at roll changes.
- Mobile on casters — moved flexibly and locked precisely via mechanical stations; maximises machine uptime in shift operation.
