Before introducing the NWA series machines of WPR, one of the best laminating machines in the world, we would like to inform you about WPR/TAKA. WPR/TAKA is the only company in the world to bring together the manufacture of wrapping machines with the production of high-quality adhesives. They provide their clients with unparalleled knowledge of the entire profile and panel wrapping process.

Consequently, they are committed to offering systems and services that guarantee reliable production down to the last detail. Hot melters, slot nozzles, wrapping machines and adhesives provide our clients with a single partner dealing with all aspects of the wrapping process. Their team of experts offers extensive services – from technical assistance and modernization of production lines to application consultation and personalized training courses.

The NWA system is specifically designed for the linear lamination of PVC profiles with paper or PVC foil by means of hot melt adhesives (HMPUR). NWA is the result of extraordinary know-how and top-notch quality. The system is ideal for technologically advanced panel and profile lamination, and all its components are entirely produced in Italy.

NWA’s Machine bed is in varnished steel, complete with CE-compliant safety devices and a safety barrier, with an emergency push button on the control console and an emergency puller. In this direction, in NWA machines, the working speed of the machine is regulated electronically and displayed on the main panel. The properties of the chassis of the machine can be listed as follows.

Structural frame made of stabilised, powder-coated steel.
The high precision of the gears eliminates any dynamic vibration.
Specific “long-life” lubrication system, fundamental for use at elevated work temperatures.
Safety systems for operators.

NWA series machines are designed completely according to the demands of the customers. In this framework, they are offered a wide range of options and their expectations are met in the best way according to their demands. Other than these main features, it is possible to order many additional features. For example; pair of profile guides, mobile shoulder, rapid adjustment of transport wheels, rapid tool change system, push & pull system, short wave IR lamp, horizontal brush, vertical brush, ionized air knives, automatic heating plate, automatic foil heating IR, automatic “AFC” braking control, additional foil unwinder, automatic coating alignment control, semi-automatic foil splice system, automatic foil cutting system, etc. You can get detailed information about each of these features from them.

Important Options Of The NWA Series Machines

The automatic dosing system for LOW VOC primer from WPR/TAKA is the result of more than 20 years of experience in the field of application. It is the only system to guarantee maximum precision and repeatability in one of the most important stages of the wrapping process. Special stainless steel/PTFE membrane dosing pumps regulate the quantity of primer with maximum precision based on the working speed. Application parameters can be easily and intuitively adjusted thanks to the multilingual touch-screen control panel. The optional stand-by function reduces the primer being applied to 10% in order to avoid the drying of felt pads during production breaks. The system is designed for the application of solvent-based or environmentally-friendly primers. In the case of applications of inflammable primers, the connected installations must be equipped accordingly.

Machine

NWA machine has a continuous cycle hot melt applicator for hot melt adhesives (HOT MELT) and reactive hot melt adhesives (HOT MELT PUR). This unit of the machine consists of a tank, grill and manifold with high fusion capacity and anti-adherent surface treatment. A special WPR design was developed to avoid the thermo-dynamic stress of the adhesive. Rapid opening system for safe and fast maintenance without the use of tools; rapid unhooking of filtering units in AISI 316 stainless steel; automatic adhesive dosing system, etc., are other benefits. The dosage is kept constant even when the production speed changes. The system avoids adhesive dosing errors, with consequent quality and economic benefits on the finished product. CPU for the centralised control of machine functions, process time and date setting functions, alarms and safety functions; an indication of room temperature to guarantee that production is carried out in the thermal conditions advised by the PUR hot melt adhesive producers, are other advantages.

NWA machine’s patented slot nozzle system has variable glue heads, equipped with special, highly abrasive-resistant lips. Rapid change stainless AISI 316 steel filtering set is integrated into WPR’s exclusive distribution system (Control Flow). The application is continually adjusted by means of precision registers featuring numeric indicators. In addition, it has the feature of a completely closing slot nozzle system, and it is specially designed for easy cleaning.

One of the important elements that makes this machine special is the foil splice system. Semi-automatic junction system for the foil being processed with a foil on stand-by. Pneumatic slitting system positioned upstream of the junction unit. The slitting position control is managed directly by the main control panel by means of PLC and a detection photocell. In the operations area, the machine is wholly protected in compliance with safety regulations. The system allows for continuous production.

Another optional feature is the automatic foil-cutting system, and this feature works independently of the width of the profiles and working speed. The system automatically manages the spacing between the profiles (adjustable from 5 to 10mm). Slitting is performed between two profiles. In the operations areas, the machine is completely protected in compliance with safety regulations. The system is fundamental in the case of an automatic unloading device.

Products Available Colors

One of the most important features that makes NWA special is its special software and the sensor and PLC system that supports this software. The central control CPU of the operating parameters is controlled by the backlit touch screen, and all the necessary machine parameters, as mentioned below, are displayed and controlled.

Production speed.
Process temperatures.
Room temperature.
Adhesive application quantity.
Complete alarm diagnostics.
Process tolerance and system anomalies.
Weekly timer.

These features make NWA the most popular wrapping machine in India. As of now, Aluplast, Encraft, Saint-Gobain, and Sudhakar are producing high-quality laminated profiles with NWA machines.

In addition, as of February 2023, it has started to stock the spare parts of WPR machines in India and supplies spare parts directly to its customers in India.
