WPT Nonwovens has begun production of air through bonded (ATB) nonwovens on its newly acquired A.Celli Nonwovens spooling line. The acquisition of this system coincides with the opening of the company’s new facility and expands its production capabilities. 

The A.Celli spooling line, which is now operational at the WPT Beaver Dam facility, is capable of production speeds of up to 2600 ft/min and spooling widths from 0.5 inches up to 6.5 inches guaranteeing maximum flexibility and throughput. It is also capable of being customized to the specific requirements of the web being processed. The spooling machine features six heads with automatic master roll loading and discharge of finished rolls.

A.Celli Nonwovens machinery sets the standard for the production of ATB nonwoven products and features a winder with in-line cutting device that allows for the production of master spooling rolls, a rewinder, and an integrated packaging system.

This new investment in leading edge technology distinguishes WPT Nonwovens as a domestic supplier able to meet the quality specifications and most exacting needs of the market, while ensuring the highest levels of productivity.
