Rewind / Slitting
Can-Do operates several rewind / slitting machines. These machines have attributes that make each of them suitable for rewind / slitting certain materials.
We are capable of slitting jumbo logs of duct tape to 2" by 60-yard rolls; and at the same time, we are able to create logs of standard length adhesive products from jumbo logs. These standard length logs are custom slit at a later date to meet the specified needs of the customer.
Also, we have the ability to rewind / slit numerous rolls of narrow width material with dry adhesive on liner paper from wide web jumbo rolls of the same. Tension control features of the machines cause the individual rolls to have uniform cuts, despite the wide width of the jumbo rolls being cut. So, the rewind/slitting process essentially creates numerous smaller rolls from one larger roll of material.
This process allows high speed slitting through the use of razor, shear, or score blades.
Can-Do typically works with 3" core material, but we have the capability to rewind / slit material and put the end rolls onto 1" cores. Cores may be plastic or paper, and this is just one more value added service we offer to our customers.
Rewind / Slitting Application Success Stories

Helping customers when they need us most
One of Can-Do's largest suppliers requested we assist them at a time when they were running at full capacity and unable to deliver product to another one of their customers. We agreed to help and then received multiple jumbo rolls of duct tape on a daily basis. We were able to rewind/slit the material to 2" width and custom length for the customer.
We produced thousands of these rolls and were also able to custom package and shrink-wrap each roll to the specifications of the customer. In this case, we were paid a fee for each roll produced, never taking ownership of the material.

Keeping product in stock for customers
Can-Do serves as a stocking distributor for another highly regarded manufacturer of adhesive products. In this capacity, we maintain inventory of a variety of the company's products in jumbo roll form. We also service customers for these products and provide short lead times for custom cut rolls and small quantities of this material.
