Coast to Coast - November 2011

According to Paul Sanborn, VP of manufacturing at Acucote, "We tried to develop our own solution for an unwinder, but it didn't give us the desired results and ended up being very problematic." Acucote knew of Martin Automatic's reputation in web handling and approached them for a non-stop splicer. Key to the successful installation was a clear up-front understanding of what Acucote expected from its investment. "The questions [Martin Automatic] ask are the reasons their equipment is so well-engineered," Sanborn added.
