Tidland improves line of ergonomic shafts

New XPRO10 coated shaft improves safety, expands selection of Ultrashaft™ Carbon Fiber Shafts.


Camas, WA—Tidland Corporation, a worldwide leader in winding and slitting products, will introduce the Ultrashaft XPRO10 at CMM 2007. This tough, lightweight carbon fiber shaft eliminates safety risks commonly associated with sleeved or unsleeved shaft models.

XPRO10 represents a significant improvement in how carbon fiber technology is applied to converting applications. Unlike rigid sleeves that can crack under high load cycles, this proprietary coating flexes with the shaft, while protecting the carbon fiber tube from core wear, cutting tools, and wear from normal shaft and roll handling.

“Our customers continue to respond to the ergonomic and safety risks in their operations and want solutions without compromising function,” explains Sean Craig, Product Manager for Tidland Corporation. “XPRO10 reduces safety concerns, improves operator confidence in their tools and coupled with our expanded offering, providing them with more specific and cost-effective ergonomic solutions.”

Tidland Corporation is the industry leader in slitting and winding equipment for the web processing industry. Established in 1951 with the invention of the air shaft, Tidland has demonstrated over 50 years of continuous improvement while delivering consistent new product designs to the market. As a company of Maxcess International, Tidland Corporation, Fife Corporation (guiding and inspection equipment) and MAGPOWR (tension controls) are able to apply over 160 years combined industry experience and a large application base to provide a unique perspective of the entire process line.
