Published: October 01, 2009

GLOUCESTER, MA | Gloucester Engineering reports Berry Plastics, Evansville, IN, will install the world's first WOW Winder on a Gloucester 11-layer PE cast stretch film line, which was delivered to Berry Plastics earlier in the year.

The winder is said to represent a step-change in roll quality, speed, indexing time, material optimization, and flexibility. It is capable of running hand-wrap rolls more than 50% faster than conventional winders, the company reports. Core loading and roll unloading is automated and integrated into the winder.
