Umatshini wokukrola ifilimu, isixhobo esibalulekileyo ekuguquleni amashishini, yenzelwe ukusika ngokuchanekileyo imiqulu emikhulu yezinto ezibhityileyo, ezibhetyebhetye (njengeplastiki, iphepha, ifoyile, okanye i-laminates) ibe yimicu emincinci okanye imiqulu emininzi. Umgaqo wayo ongundoqo wokusebenza ujikeleza amanqanaba amathathu aphambili: Ukukhulula, ukuSlitting, kunye nokuBuyisa umva.
1. Ukukhulula:Inkqubo iqala nge-master roll enkulu, okanye i-jumbo roll, efakwe kwi-shaft yokukhulula. Isiqhoboshi esiphucukileyo okanye isixokelelwano sokuqhuba silawula ukujikeleziswa kweli shaft ukubonelela ngesondlo esingaguqukiyo, esixineneyo sewebhu (izinto) kumatshini. Ukugcina uxinzelelo oluchanekileyo kunye noluqhubekayo lubalulekile ukukhusela imibimbi, ukuzolula, okanye ukukrazula kwezinto. Oomatshini banamhlanje basoloko besebenzisa iinkqubo ezizenzekelayo zokulawula uxinezeleko kule njongo.
2. Ukusika:Le yintliziyo yoqhaqho. I-web egxininisiweyo idlula kwicandelo lokuqhawula, apho inqunywe khona ixesha elide. Kukho iindlela ezimbini eziphambili zokusika:
I-Razor Slitting / Shear Cutting: Isetyenziselwa ifilimu ezincinci, ezincinci ezingqongqo. Incakuba ebukhali, esazinge, ibekwe kwi-engile echanekileyo ngokuchasene nentsimbi eqinileyo. Izinto eziphathekayo zichetywe ngokucocekileyo njengoko zidlula phakathi kwazo.
Crush (Amanqaku) Ukusika: Uqeshwe kwizinto ezityebileyo okanye ezicinezelekayo. Iintsimbi ezimbini ezidityanisiweyo, eziqinileyo zeesetyhula zentsimbi (phezulu kunye nezantsi) zidibene kunye. I-blade ephezulu ibeka amanqaku ezinto eziphathekayo, kwaye i-blade ephantsi iyayixhasa, idala ukusika okucocekileyo ngoxinzelelo olulawulwayo.
I-slitting blades ifakwe kwi-arbors (i-shafts) izikhundla zazo zinokuhlengahlengiswa ukuseta ububanzi obufunwayo be-slit ngokuchaneka okuphezulu.
3. Ukubuyisela umva:Emva kokusikwa, ngoku{0}}imisonto eyahluliweyo yemathiriyeli kufuneka idityaniswe ngobunono kwiicores ezizimeleyo ukwenza amatsha, acutheneyo. Oku kwenzeka kwisikhululo sokubuyela umva. Iindlela ezimbini eziphambili zokubuyisela umva zezi:
Ukujija kumbindi: Iicores ezintsha ziqhutywa ngqo yinjini. Oku kunika ulawulo olugqwesileyo kwimiqulu enzima kunye nezantya eziphezulu.
Umphezulu (Igubu) Ukujikajika: Iwebhu ekroliweyo ilinyazwa kwiicores ezicinezelwe kumbhobho omkhulu,{0}}oqhutywa yinjini. Ukruthakruthwano olusuka kwigubu luqhuba ii-cores, luqinisekisa ukuqina okufanayo kunye nokuqina okugqwesileyo okugqwesileyo, ngakumbi kwiifilimu ezibhityileyo, ezityibilikayo.
Kuyo yonke inkqubo, iiroli zesikhokelo kunye nomphetho-izinzwa zendawo (EPCs) zigcina iwebhu ilungelelanisiwe ngokuchanekileyo. Inkqubo yolawulo yomatshini ephakathi ingqamanisa isantya sawo onke amacandelo, iqinisekisa ukuhamba kwezinto ezigudileyo ukusuka kwindawo yokukhulula, ukutyhubela ii-slitters, ukuya kwi-rewind shafts, okukhokelela kumgangatho omninzi{2}}ophezulu, amanxeba aqinileyo agqityiweyo alungele ukupakishwa okanye ukuqhubekeka phambili.
