Torninova has disclosed the results of the open house held at the end of February at its factory in Bastia Umbria (Perugia, Italy) to present the new Comapct Stretch 1000 line belonging to the range of cast film plants, marketed in cooperation with Macchi, to produce coextruded stretch film with 1-m width. From February 22 to 26 some tens of companies have taken part at the production demonstrations; one of them was Walmart, an US processor which produces an innovative macro-punched stretch film on American cast lines. The line displayed during the open house as well as a second one of the same kind will be delivered to two European processors respectively between August and September and just after the K 2010 show.
But the Italian company also took the occasion to anticipate the novelty which will be unveiled at the German fair. It consists in an "all-in-one" cast line, whose prototype is in operation at the factory in Bastia Umbra, to produce reels of film both stretch in PE and in PP with a single rewinder unit. Practically, two different productions will be carried out by means a single plant and a single rewinder unit (instead of two) with a dual advantage for the processor: saving in terms of investment for ancillary equipment and time for production changeover.
