A Real-World Success Story: Minh’s Transformation with DJH Machinery

To demonstrate how our Nonwoven Fabric Slitting Machine (Model NWSL-1600) delivers real-world value, we’d like to share the journey of Mr. Minh, a textile entrepreneur from Vietnam who redefined his company’s future with the help of DJH Machinery.

From Production Bottlenecks to Scalable Solutions

When we first connected with Minh in late 2020, his business was facing serious challenges. Operating a family-run nonwoven production workshop in Bình Dương Province, Minh was supplying PP spunbond rolls for hygiene products and medical-grade masks—a market that had surged during the pandemic.

Despite the rising demand, Minh’s slitting operations were becoming a bottleneck. His team relied on outdated mechanical slitters that required manual knife adjustment, lacked tension control, and produced inconsistent edge quality. Frequent downtime and roll waste were cutting into profit margins.

He knew it was time for a change.

Online Collaboration: Trust Across Distance

Due to COVID-19 travel restrictions, Minh couldn’t visit us in person. Instead, we arranged a live video demonstration of our NWSL-1600 Nonwoven Slitting Line, showing the machine handling 1600mm-wide spunbond rolls at a consistent speed of 250m/min with high slit precision.

Key features we highlighted included:

  • Automatic knife positioning for quick size changeovers
  • Independent servo tension control
  • Ultrasonic edge guiding for perfect winding alignment
  • Integrated static eliminator for cleanroom-grade output

Even through the screen, Minh could see the machine’s stability and precision. He was particularly impressed by the clean edges and smooth winding finish—crucial for medical nonwovens.

Customization and Delivery

Minh shared his unique production setup: a narrow workshop with limited access space, and strict hygiene compliance for mask-grade materials. Our engineers worked with him remotely to redesign the machine frame, incorporating a compact footprint, enclosed cover panels, and a dust extraction system.

Despite global logistics delays in 2021, we managed to ship and install the machine within 60 days, thanks to our local partner in Ho Chi Minh City who coordinated site preparation and after-sales support.

Results That Speak for Themselves

After commissioning the NWSL-1600, Minh’s company—NamHoa Nonwovens Co., Ltd.—achieved a 40% increase in output capacity and reduced roll waste by over 20%. The automation features enabled his team to handle three times the daily order volume with fewer operators and minimal training.

By mid-2022, NamHoa had secured contracts with two leading Vietnamese PPE exporters, thanks to the consistent slit width and cleanliness of their rolls.

Growing Together: A Partnership Built on Innovation

Minh has since added a second slitting line from DJH to keep up with export orders to Malaysia and Thailand. We continue to support his expansion with remote diagnostics, operator training videos, and spare parts service through our regional agent.

What started as a machinery upgrade has evolved into a collaborative journey—driven by a shared focus on quality, innovation, and reliability.

Minh’s Words

“I was nervous about investing during uncertain times, but DJH treated me like a long-term partner from day one. The machine delivered exactly what I needed—and more. We’re ready to expand confidently.”

    Complete Guide to Choosing a Slitter for Nonwoven Fabrics

    Slitters for nonwoven fabrics are essential equipment for industries like hygiene products, medical materials, agriculture, and filtration. These machines precisely cut wide nonwoven rolls into narrower widths suitable for further converting or packaging. Choosing the right nonwoven slitting machine ensures smooth operation, optimal fabric handling, and improved product quality. This guide outlines all critical factors to help you make an informed purchasing decision.

    1. Identifying Your Production Needs

    Understanding your operational demands is the first step in selecting a slitter tailored to nonwoven applications. Consider the following:

    • Material Type: Determine the nonwoven fabric characteristics—such as SMS, spunbond, meltblown, or composite structures. Each behaves differently during slitting.
    • Roll Dimensions: Know your maximum roll width, diameter, and weight. Most nonwoven slitters handle widths from 1600 mm to 3200 mm.
    • Slit Width & Accuracy: Define the range of final widths and required tolerances. Precision slitting helps reduce material waste and maintain uniform product lines.
    • End-Use Application: Hygiene-grade slitting may require antistatic features, while filtration fabrics may demand dust-free cutting and edge sealing.

    2. Evaluating Machine Capabilities

    The performance of your nonwoven slitter affects productivity, maintenance, and output quality. Evaluate key features such as:

    • Slitting Mechanism: Rotary shear and score slitting are commonly used. Choose based on material thickness and desired edge quality.
    • Tension & Web Control: Tension-sensitive materials like spunlace or meltblown require advanced closed-loop tension systems and edge guiding sensors.
    • Speed & Stability: For high-throughput applications, ensure the machine maintains consistent slitting at speeds of 200–500 m/min without web flutter.
    • Automation Features: Options like automatic knife positioning, PLC touchscreens, and recipe storage reduce downtime and operator error.

    3. Choosing a Reliable Supplier

    Beyond the machine, the supplier you choose will shape your long-term success. Look for:

    • Industry Experience: Suppliers with a strong presence in the nonwoven sector understand the material’s unique behavior and challenges.
    • After-Sales Support: Verify if they provide remote support, spare parts, maintenance guidance, and local service agents in your region (e.g., Vietnam).
    • Customization Options: The best suppliers can tailor machine layouts or features to match your exact production environment.
    • Successful Installations: Request case studies or references, ideally with clients in similar industries or markets.

    4. Cost Analysis and ROI

    Cost-effectiveness involves more than the machine’s price tag. A comprehensive cost evaluation should include:

    • Initial Price: Advanced automation or high-speed models may have a higher upfront cost but deliver faster ROI through labor savings.
    • Operating Expenses: Include blade wear, power usage, compressed air consumption, and downtime for maintenance.
    • Waste Reduction: Machines that minimize web breaks and edge defects significantly improve material utilization.
    • Longevity & Upgradeability: Investing in durable construction and modular design helps future-proof your line as production needs grow.

    5. Additional Considerations

    Ensure your chosen slitter supports operational safety, compliance, and integration:

    • Operator Safety: Look for safety enclosures, interlock systems, and clear emergency stop functions.
    • Cleanroom Compatibility: For medical or hygiene-grade production, check whether the machine meets cleanliness and static control standards.
    • Line Integration: Ensure compatibility with upstream unwinding or downstream packaging systems.
    • Local Compliance: Confirm voltage, certification, and layout meet Vietnam’s industrial and regulatory standards.

    The nonwoven fabric industry is evolving rapidly with shifts in demand and technology:

    • Hygiene & Medical Demand: Post-pandemic demand continues for high-speed, hygienic slitting lines for face masks, wipes, and gowns.
    • Sustainability Focus: Machines that reduce waste, energy use, and downtime support eco-friendly production goals.
    • Automation Adoption: Smart sensors, real-time diagnostics, and predictive maintenance features are increasingly standard.
    • Asian Market Growth: Southeast Asia, particularly Vietnam, is emerging as a key production hub for hygiene nonwovens and filtration media.
