Curt G. Joa expands waste minimisation technology

"The development of our waste stream management technologies has been a continuous effort over the last decade. We filed our first patent in this field in 2007. Since then, our continuous improvement initiatives allow us to claim that our machine platforms have the lowest ramp-up cost of any available hygiene converting equipment in the world," said Gene Kiela II, president, Curt G. Joa, Inc.

Curt G. Joa's newest waste minimisation technology identifies, prevents and corrects defects in the cuff section of the product construction, including cuff folding and elastics. This responsive technology enables correction without stopping the machine, preventing rejected products associated with shut down and ramp up.

The technologies also include individually rejecting spliced materials before combined to form an end product; ADL inversion correction, stretch material auto rethread and low-cost ramp-up waste, through process stream management.

Curt G. Joa, a global leader of custom and premium machinery to produce disposable products, utilises its own independently developed and patented technologies in its machinery. (KD)
