What is Lathe Slitting? 

Lathe Slitting is the process of spinning a log of media, whether adhesive or non-adhesive.  Our Lathe slitting process incorporates a driven or non-driven blade and automatic lubrication facilities to suit the media type being processed. The blade slices the media to the specified width (widths) according to requirements. 

​Our fully programmable lathe slitter can generate a variety of widths from a single roll ensuring clients have the flexibility to minimise wastage and get the product you need without compromise. This type of slitting is best suited to small diameter rolls and narrow slit widths.
