Solutions
Our solutions applied worldwide

Non-woven roll handling
Tell Us about Your Processes for FEM- Baby- & Adult Care:
We will come forward with the most efficient, ergonomical and most of all, cost-effective Roll-Handler Solutions you have ever seen. Our Engineering-Team will, if necessary, recalculate the Converter-structure, to enable cranes to be put on top of your Converter for space-saving solutions. We exchange full Lay-Outs Studies with your Application Engineers and will present to you the best- most effective solution. We do both, Single-Action (Vertical-Vertical) and Rotary-Action (Horizontal-Vertical). Our install-base of Roll-Handlers for NonWoven applications in the FEM- Baby- and Adult Care is world-wide.
1) Air-Balancer
A Dotec LiftAssist operates fully pneumatic. The Cable Air-Balancer (1) takes care of the elastic Up & Down movement. It’s the muscle of the system.
2) Centre of gravity Unit
The “Centre of Gravity Unit” (2) provides the vertical alignment in every position of the handler, empty or loaded. It reacts/activates automatically.
3) Ergonomic Handle Perhaps the smartest part (Operating Handle) of every Dotec LiftAssist. It activates the Up&Down movement and additional main functions. No buttons or switches are required. A simple finger-tip activates the functions.
4) Main Frame
The mainframe contains the logic-controlls. All tuning elements are centralized in the front-display. Automatic Sequence: The operating sequence for clamping and release is automated. When the chuck is positioned in the core, clamping is activated. Once the roll is put down again after tilting, clamping is released.You cannot make a mistake during this process.
5) Tilting & Rotating
The Tilting & Rotating Units (5) provide the Rotary-Action that turn rolls from horizontal to vertical and revers.
ABC System (250KG)
The ABC-System is based on an Air-Balancer Cylinder (1) instead of the Cable Air- Balancer. It has the same “Balance” elastic movement.
6) Chucks:
Various chucks are available 3”-6”-8”

Slitter roll handling
High-Speed Slitters run at Half-Speed most of the time due to the time involved in manually Unloading & Packaging. The Unloading system remove the roll’s and present them horizontally......, but what’s next?
Take the next step! The Roll (Doffing) Trolley (RDT) removes the full shaft-load of rolls from the Unloadingshaft and the Rotary Action Roll Handler (RH90) Lifts-Tilts and places the Rolls on the pallet. A solid and effective combination that saves you money and operators like doing!

Yarn Roll Handling
Dotec Roll Handlers For Yarn:
The yarn-industry has been troubled for so many years by unsuccessful investments in lifting equipment. Although they were technically OK, they are not really user-friendly. As a result employees will ignore to use the lifting equipment, in spite of the vast investments. Opperators prefer to do the yob by hand. The consequences are considerable; damaging the bobbin due to falling, bumping and “throwing”, causing yarn-breakage at the next step in production.
New Concept:
Dotec’s FP-1 bobbin-handler has been developed in real practice and for real practice. For over a year operators have had the opportunity to comment on the various applications, such as the use in spinning mills on creels and in the packaging departments. All the input, at the cost of numerous prototypes, has resulted into a patented, new and unique fully pneumatically operating Roll Handler for Yarn. It’s Small, Quick & Handy to operate.

Roll handlers on wheels
Dotec Roll Handlers Rollenwender Reel Turner on Wheels for Film:
In areas where rail- or Jib cranes have no room to be installed we have put our Rotary Action Roll handler “on wheels”. It lift’s and Rotate the Rolls from vertical to horizontal without any physical effort for the operator. It’s also ideal for the transfer of rolls from the printer’s spindle to the pallet.
Air Battery Concept:
The Roll handler Rollenwender Reel Turner on wheels have an Air-Battery inside. This means that they operate fully pneumatically. An Air-tank is part of the concept and provides the energy to lift & lower. A “Refill” takes no longer than 30-60sec. and is enough for 10-20 movements (Roll Deliveries). They are designed for a “Heavy Duty” performance in a “round the clock” production environment.

Large Rolls
Dotec LiftAssists For Radiators: For Radiators we have a range of handlers to Lift-Tillt and Rotate them in the processes after production and/or in the Warehouse area. We also have solutions to “Hang” radiators into the coating line. Clamping: We do Clamping when the packaging of the radiator allows that.

Car Body Parts Handling
Car Body Parts in Low Volume production-lines are brought to line primarily by hand. This requires smart and “easy to operate” LiftAssists that follow the manual/physical movements of the operator quick and easy. This is a typical DOTEC skill. Tasks, such as Rotating and Tilting can be part of the process. The Ergonomic Handle provides all operating tasks. (See page About: Why Dotec!)
