Edge quality that scales
IMC standard slitters share slit head geometry, tension architecture, and controls across tiers, so knife settings and tension regimes developed at lab scale carry forward to pilot and production. For battery electrode work, burr-free cut quality has been demonstrated on copper and aluminum foil.
01Lab Slitter →
Narrow-web machines for R&D and cleanroom environments. Slit method, rewind geometry, and shaft style configured to the application — cartridge or fixed heads, cantilevered or solid shafts, tool-less changeover, all slit methods available.
02Pilot Slitter →
Production-representative slitting at pilot scale: recipe-driven HMI, industrial PLC controls, and the same slit head and tension architecture as the production machine — so scale-up is predictable. Shear, razor, and crush methods; cantilevered shafts available.
03Production Slitter →
Wide-web production slitting engineered to your speed, roll spec, and line configuration. Duplex or turret rewind, automatic knife positioning, inspection camera options — standalone or inline with coating and calendering.
