GDM Receives INDEX Innovation Award

Expandable Welding Wheel honored in machinery and equipment category

Machinery and equipment supplier GDM has received an INDEX Innovation Award for its Expandable Welding Wheel. This solution generates a side seam welding in baby and adult pant-type products. This technology enables the production of an extended number of sizes with the same unit. Side-seam bonding and performance are guaranteed for a wide range of raw materials. The unit is composed of welding stations mounted onto a wheel-like system, allowing high-speed operation and requiring zero size-change time.

GDM received the award this week at a virtual ceremony sponsored by EDANA, the organizer of the awards program and co-organizer of the INDEX Nonwovens Exhibition, which has been rescheduled for September 2021 in Geneva, Switzerland.
