Customer Success Stories

Sollex 5Z improved slitting stability in recycled agricultural blown film production, with clean cuts.

In high-speed cast stretch film production, blade performance directly affects output, uptime and roll quality. This case shows how Sollex 4-60-030-Z helped a European producer running a W&H FILMEX II Stretch increase production speed from around 300 m/min to 400–600 m/min, extend blade life by up to 1400% and achieve seven days of stable production.

When DynaMate AB developed a robotic box opening station for a major pharmaceutical manufacturer, blade life became critical for uptime and maintenance planning. With a Sollex solid tungsten carbide pointed blade, the process achieved 22,800 meters of cutting per blade — almost 9 times longer than the original target.
