You have a large roll of paper, film, or foil – 1400mm wide, 1000kg heavy. Your customer needs smaller rolls, 30mm wide. Cutting them by hand takes forever. The edges are ragged. The tension varies. You waste material and lose customers.
A paper slitter rewinder machine solves that. It unwinds the big master roll, slits it into multiple narrow strips using precision circular knives, and rewinds each strip onto its own core. The cuts are clean. The tension is uniform. The speed reaches 350 meters per minute.
YG offers three models: YG-1300, YG-1600, and YG-1800. Maximum unwinding width from 1300mm to 1800mm. Minimum slit width 30mm. Maximum rewinding diameter 1000mm. Total power from 24KW to 30KW.
This article explains the specs, what materials you can cut, how to choose the right model, and answers real buyer questions.
YG Paper Slitter Rewinder Machine – Key Parameters
Here are the complete specifications for all three models.

| Max width | 1300mm | 1600mm | 1800mm |
| Max Diameter for unwinding | ￠1400mm | ￠1400mm | ￠1400mm |
| Min width of slitting | 30mm | 30mm | 30mm |
| Max Diameter of rewinding | ￠1000mm | ￠1000mm | ￠1000mm |
| Speed | ≤350m/min | ≤350m/min | ≤350m/min |
| Total Power | 24kw | 26kw | 30kw |
| Power supply | 380V/50hz | 380V/50hz | 380V/50hz |
| Weight | 4000kg | 4500kg | 5500kg |
| Overall dimension(LxWxH) | 3300x3150x1930(mm) | 3300x3450x1930(mm) | 3300x3650x1930(mm) |
All three models handle the same maximum unwinding diameter (1400mm) and rewinding diameter (1000mm). The main difference is in width.

How Does A Paper Slitter Rewinder Machine Work?
Step 1 – Unwinding. Load the master roll onto the unwinding shaft. The machine brakes to maintain constant tension.
Step 2 – Slitting. The web (continuous sheet) passes over a set of circular knives. The top knives press against the bottom knives or an anvil roll. Each pair cuts one strip. You can position the knives to any width down to 30mm.
Step 3 – Rewinding. Each slit strip travels to a separate rewinding shaft. The machine winds each strip onto its own cardboard core. The rewinding tension is controlled independently for each roll – no loose or tight rolls.
Step 4 – Removal. When the rewound rolls reach the set diameter (up to 1000mm), the machine stops. You remove the finished rolls and put on new cores.
The whole process runs at up to 350 meters per minute. One operator can run the machine – no need for multiple workers.
Key Advantages Of A YG Paper Slitter Rewinder
- Clean cuts, no burrs – flat, no burrs; if burrs appear, adjust the blade.
- Stable operation – Each machine is tested before shipment. You receive a verification video.
- Easy to operate – One person can operate it; it is simple and convenient, and does not require multiple people.
- Good after‑sales – One-year warranty, lifetime paid service. On-site installation service is also provided. Installation takes 5‑8 days with a technician. Please feel free to contact YG if needed.
- Customizable – Can change voltage (add transformer), add corona treatment, and adjust slitting parameters.
Core Components Of A Slitter Rewinder
- Unwinding stand – Holds the master roll. Includes brake for tension control.
- Slitting section – Circular knife holders (top and bottom). Adjustable on a rail.
- Rewinding section – Multiple winding shafts. Each has independent tension control.
- Control panel – Touchscreen or push buttons. Controls speed, tension, and stop/start.
- Drive system – AC motor with inverter for variable speed up to 350 m/min.
- Air compressor (external) – Required for pneumatic brakes and knife pressure.
Get The Right Paper Slitter Rewinder Machine
A paper slitter rewinder machine is essential for any converter who processes rolls into smaller rolls. YG offers three reliable models covering widths from 1300mm to 1800mm. All slit down to 30mm, run at 350 m/min, and rewind up to 1000mm diameter. The machines are tested before shipment, easy to operate with one person, and backed by a one-year warranty and lifetime support.
Contact YG with your raw material width, thickness, and final roll size. They will recommend the right model, provide a quote, and advise on installation and transformer needs. Stop cutting by hand – start slitting automatically.
Frequently Asked Questions
If your master rolls are up to 1300mm wide, choose YG-1300. Up to 1600mm, choose YG-1600. Up to 1800mm, choose YG-1800. Do not buy a wider machine than you need – it costs more and takes more space.
Yes. You arrange the knives on the rail to cut the master roll into as many strips as you want, each at its own width.
Loosen the knife holders, slide them to new positions, and tighten. Takes about 10‑15 minutes.
Extra circular blades (top and bottom), knife holders, and wear parts. Ask YG for a recommended list of spare parts.
Blades are wear parts. Not covered under warranty. But they last a long time with proper sharpening.
