Nobelus, a film and laminate supplier for the general commercial print, flexible packaging, and prime label industries, has added a new high-volume slitter to its equipment lineup. Installed in the company’s Elgin, IL, facility, the Catbridge 900 Duplex Slitter is a high-speed unit that reflects the film supplier’s continued growth and focus on efficiency.

Catbridge, which recently celebrated its quarter-century anniversary, is known in the material converting space for its machinery and innovations in engineering. The 900 Duplex is an automated slitting machine that accepts film web up to 84 inches wide. With a top run speed of 2,500 feet per minute, this unit will play a crucial role in maximizing productivity as the company expands its reach in a range of markets. 

Brian Fleisher, chief operating officer at Nobelus, says, “The Catbridge 900 Duplex will allow us to significantly increase our production capabilities and handle larger, heavier rolls so we can deliver the products our customers need in a timely manner. This is a major investment that perfectly aligns with our commitment to providing top-tier customer service for every film order.” 

Nobelus hosted a ribbon-cutting ceremony to christen the Catbridge 900 Duplex on Friday, January 30. Leadership anticipates that the machine will immediately benefit consumables customers as they enjoy shorter lead times, tighter turnarounds, and greater product availability.
