Slitter Engeneering for special converting applications
We present an excerpt from the article written by Andrea Spadini for Converter magazine, in which Massimo Cerliani, Sales Manager at Temac, retraces the company’s early days, its innovative spirit, and its in-house expertise in industrial automation. This know-how has always enabled Temac to develop truly tailor-made projects for its clients, not only in the flexible packaging sector but also in highly specialized adjacent industries, where the key differentiators are not large volumes but the quality and specificity of the technological solutions adopted.
Massimo Cerliani talks about the beginnings: “From the outset, Guido Collavino and I de signed slitter-rewinder machines for reel to-reel cutting,” begins Cerliani. “The components were manufactured by trusted mechanical workshops, while we handled assembly and testing before de livery.” Over time, the company grew, ex panding both its team and facilities. Initially based in Lonate Pozzolo (VA), Temac relocated nearly five years ago to its current plant in Cassano Magnago (VA). The new site offers spacious facilities conducive to an industrial production process, enabling the company to increase market share, with 60% of its output now destined to export.”
TEMAC, THE TAILORS OF CONVERTING
Today, the company has a team of around fifteen employees who, at its new headquarters near Malpensa Airport, design and manufacture cutting and rewinding solutions for the flexible packaging industry. But that’s not all: the company’s deep-rooted know-how has enabled Temac to expand into other industries unrelated to packaging, establishing itself globally as a reliable partner capable of understanding customer needs and transforming them into unique technological solutions.
A notable example is SVD 1010 IS, a slitter-rewinder developed for a Milan-based medical applications company. This machine, designed in collaboration with the client’s technical team, will operate in a cleanroom environment, processing nonwoven materials. Every detail – from ergonomics and automatic reel handling to dust management, temperature control, and even the ma chine’s color – was meticulously tailored to meet the unique requirements of this specialized production environment.
