Winder Maintenance Service Program

JSI’s maintenance service agreements are part of a customized preventive maintenance program. Under our maintenance agreements, each client is assigned a dedicated winder specialist who serves as the service contact point for the mill. This winder specialist conducts inspections, identifies

winder problem areas, and follows up with a fully developed action plan through JSI’s Maintenance Planning Table. This action plan reduces unscheduled shutdowns by correcting problem areas in their early stages.

For a low monthly cost, you will have access to our winder specialists through our Help Desk, Zoom, Team Meetings, email, and phone support. We will commit an allotted number of hours “virtually” to your plant. Our specialist will follow up with a written report, with recommendations.

Onsite and Virtual Winder Support

Troubleshooting old and new winder controls and several generations of control technology can be challenging. At times, existing functions and automation are no longer used due to reliability issues, faulty equipment, or faulty sensor technology. Identifying the root cause of these problems and addressing them can return the lost functionality back to operation and increase the overall productivity of the winder.

Whether you’re in need of a second pair of eyes or hands, JSI winder specialists are available for onsite trouble shooting calls and will work, hands on, with operators to solve and fix the problem that is occurring within the winder.

Winder Maintenance Training
(TNTS – Torque, Nip, Tension and Speed)

Torque, Nip, Tension and Speed are all controllable attributes for successful roll building. This training was developed for winder operators with the aim of generating better customer rolls, increasing winder runnability and reducing waste product. TNTS training can also be useful for maintenance and management in understanding the challenges and opportunities on the winder.

Our experienced winder specialist conducts the training session in a classroom setting and focuses on mill-specific equipment.

Who should attend? This class is designed for mill maintenance and operation personnel. Also, this is an ideal opportunity for anyone needing to increase his or her knowledge on TNTS.

The Problem:

Ensuring optimal slitting performance is a combination of several factors:

• The condition of slitter equipment
• Operator skill
• Blade and band quality
• Sharpening quality

If any factors are not functioning properly, it can result in a shortened slitter life and excessive downtime for slitter changes and return roll due to dusting and rough edges. Managing this process can be costly and time consuming.

The Solution:

The Slitter Solution Program (SSP) is a comprehensive solution configured specifically for your slitter section needs. The SSP will help your mill control the slitting process, extending blade life and band change intervals while improving roll quality. Implementing SSP by JSI will help decrease maintenance costs and increase efficiency.

Precision Grinding:

• Super finishing creates the sharpest edge available in the industry on new and sharpened top slitters and bottom bands. All have OEM specification or customer-supplied specifications.
• Superior cut quality and improved roll quality
• Increased blade and band life and minimal slitter dusting
• Safety coating for edge protection and worker safety

Inventory Management:

• Replace blades and bands of the highest-quality tungsten carbide and powdered metal once the existing blades reach the end of their useful life
• Bi-weekly pick-up and delivery service from one of our six service center locations throughout the United States

Support Services:

• JSI’s experienced team provides ongoing consulting of the slitting process to improve cut quality and blade life. As your partner, JSI will continuously evaluate operating conditions, procedures, and maintenance practices to help decrease maintenance cost and increase efficiency.
