Slitter Rewinder Machines Market Analysis: Increasing demand for conversion of technical films has created a lucrative opportunity for surface winder and center-surface winder slitter rewinder machines
Higher productivity achieved with the high operating speed of the slitter rewinder machines along with the integration of two operations into one machine, have driven the global slitter rewinder machines market. The global slitter rewinder machines market is projected to expand at a CAGR of 3.9% by the end of 2028. The slitter rewinder machines market is segmented on the basis of machine type, maximum operating speed, and substrate.
On the basis of machine type, the global slitter rewinder machines market is segmented into center winder, surface winder, and center-surface winder.
The center winder segment is estimated to account for the highest global sales, attributed to cost-efficient converting of plastic web films
Center winder slitter rewinder machines have motor-driven shafts for rewinding, and thus generate considerable tension in the rewinding material. Therefore, center winder slitter rewinder machines are suitable for materials which can endure significant tension without damaging the output material. Center winder slitter rewinder machines are relatively economical as compared to surface winder and center-surface winder slitter rewinder machines.
Increasing demand for converted paper products has propelled the surface winder slitter rewinder machines market
The intolerance towards the usage of conventional plastics has promoted the prompt shift to converted flexible packaging industry from plastic films to flexible paper packaging solutions. Thus, the demand for slitter rewinder machines for converting paper is rising at a significant pace. Moreover, surface wider slitter rewinder machines are relatively economical as compared to center-surface slitter rewinder machines, as well as capable of maintaining considerable low tension in the rewinding material.
In addition, the demand for tissue paper products has witnessed substantial growth over the last decade, and is further anticipated to create a large opportunity. Thus, the increasing demand for tissue paper products has attributed to the expansion of global tissue paper production capacity, leading to a lucrative opportunity for the surface winder slitter rewinder machines market globally.
The center-surface winder slitter rewinder machines segment is projected to witness swift growth in demand during the forecast period
In the present market scenario, the market share of center-surface winder slitter rewinder machines is much lower as compared to that of center winder and surface winder segments in the global slitter rewinder machines market. The relatively high cost of the center-surface winder slitter rewinder machines has restrained the growth of the segment. The enhanced efforts from key slitter rewinder machine manufacturers to promote center-surface winder machines have prompted the large-scale converting firms across the globe to opt for center-surface winder slitter rewinder machines.
Center-surface winder slitter rewinder machines are highly efficient in maintaining low and constant tension on the rewinding material. Thus, the center-surface winder slitter rewinder machines are highly suitable for converting pressure-sensitive materials such as technical films, thin plastic films and papers, metal foils, and other materials.
Quickly evolving demand for electronic vehicles has resulted into immense expansion in the production of lithium-ion batteries which require thin anode, cathode, and separator films. Some of the key slitter rewinder machine manufacturers have recognized this as a lucrative opportunity and launched slitter rewinder machines specifically for the production of lithium-ion batteries.
Global Slitter Rewinder Machines Market: Key Developments
Launching new machinery with competitive technology is the majorly adopted strategy for promoting slitter rewinder machines.
- On 22nd September 2018, Hagihara Industries Inc., launched shaft-less center-drive slitter rewinder, specifically for processing PET films, metallized films, and optical films.
