Walco 813 - Industrial Laminator and Conversion System

The WALCO 813 is an industrial web-to-web conversion and laminating system designed to combine two or more flexible webs into a single web, which can then be cut to length or rewound onto a new core. This system is engineered for high-efficiency coil processing and automated web transformation across a wide range of industrial applications.

Manufactured by WALCO, the WALCO 813 offers modularity, precision tension control and scalable configurations to meet complex production and logistics requirements.

Web Conversion Capabilities

The WALCO 813 is specialized in the automated transformation of flexible webs, enabling manufacturers to :

  • Combine multiple webs into a single laminated web
  • Rewind converted material onto one or more new cores
  • Cut converted webs to length
  • Slit a laminated web into two or more separate rolls

This versatility makes the WALCO 813 particularly well suited for continuous web processing and roll-to-roll operations.

Supported Web Types & Industries

The system is compatible with a wide variety of flexible webs, including :

  • Paper and printing substrates
  • Graphic media
  • Flexible packaging materials
  • Technical and industrial webs
  • Tissue and hygiene paper

The automatic slitter rewinder configuration is widely used in the graphic, printing paper and toilet paper industries, where precision, repeatability and production speed are critical.
