A “pain reliever” for a maintenance manager

Maintenance manager’s headache comes from ‘how to fix it’ and ‘how to fix it fast’. With a good team on board it takes, at least, 3 weeks for cleaning, inspection and overall check of the production line. When talking about die head maintenance the blown-film makers may expect a longer production break. Based on the words of our customers it could have taken take from 6-11 months to have an blown-film die head back after service. How to tell your superior that the production will be stopped for several months without getting a new headache? It’s a tricky job!

However, maintenance must be done. It is not something you want to neglect. Unfortunately, there are such cases in which upgrade, retrofit or even simple maintenance have not been a priority. As a result, it led to severe production line malfunctions and even dissolution of companies.

Knowing ‘pain points’ of the industry we have solved a great deal of issues related die head functioning: friction, poor film quality, high scrap volumes, etc.

Within past couple years FINTER team with partners has developed an efficient way of maintaining die heads. Therefore, we can offer the fastest service time. For instance, it takes us 7 weeks to refurbish a 7-layer Windmöller & Hölscher die head. Not too bad, ah?
