Green Concerns Fuel Glueless Turret Rewinder Sales

The glueless start Vectra SGTR has been designed to meet the increasing demand for a clean breakaway of labels from the core. A specially designed system automatically holds the labels to the core at the start of a new roll without stopping the converting equipment. This eliminates the hot melt glue bath and associated refill stoppages and since there are no glue transfer wheels, set-up is faster. The machine is optimised for processing applications that will not tolerate any traces of glue on the web such as with thermal printers where traces of glue can build-up and damage the processing heads.
