(PRWEB) April 20, 2006 -- Convertech, Inc. has released its innovative and easy-to-use air-roll-lock differential shaft which offers converters a new way to dramatically increase their converting capacity with the purchase of just a single air shaft.

With a growing number of web converters choosing to retrofit their older machines rather than purchasing new there is an increasing need for efficient and innovative air shaft designs to replace their older, less efficient shafts. Convertech's new differential shaft features a patented GlideLock clutched roller system which allows converters to run multiple width cores on the same shaft. Because of its ability to accurately control tension across several different core widths on one shaft a single differential shaft setup will do the work of several expensive machines for the price of a single shaft.

While running multiple width cores on the same shaft web tension becomes a high priority. GlideLock rollers, which spin freely and glide easily during loading and unloading, lock tight and provide individualized and automatic tension control for each individual core on the shaft. Because GlideLock rollers automatically fine tune tension to each core the new differential shaft makes perfect rolls every time.

"Since we installed the Convertech Differential Shafts on our Dusenbery 835 in mid-2004, we have had nothing but an increase in production due to less downtime. Not only can we run many different film widths across the shafts, but we can still maintain proper tensions - something that we were not able to consistently do prior on this slitter. Plus we are now able to run the slitter at higher speeds without any issues at all. To date, we are problem free as Convertech promised, plus the delivery date was outstanding," complimented Tom Cheatle of RTG Films, Chalfont PA.

For over a quarter century Convertech has been the leader in exceptionally fast delivery time with superior engineering and quality built into every expanding shaft and chuck. With its competitors extended delivery time of as much as sixteen weeks Convertech's faster delivery time will always keep you up and running.
