Range of Re Controlli’s Products

Pneumatic Brakes

Combiflex (CX) brakes have been the benchmark for the converting industry since 1974, above all for corrugated machines. Mounted on roll stand unwinders, they are the best solution for guaranteeing perfect, precise web tension throughout the process.

Extreme (XT) brakes represent a new era in the industrial brake applications combining high performance and compact dimensions with a brake pad lifespan known to exceed 7 years and respect for the environment.

Web Viewing System

The Web Viewing System was developed with the understanding that today’s market requires a simple, economical product, one that is as compact as possible while still offering the core functions of a high-quality camera.

ReVision

Air Shaft, Friction Shaft and Safety Chuck

For unwinding and rewinding rolls of any material and weight without damaging the reel cores during unloading. All our shafts are custom made to customers’ requests. Completing the product family is a wide range of safety chucks, available with axial movement and interchangeable inserts.

Air Shaft / Expanding Shaft and Friction Shaft

Air Shaft or Expanding Shafts with Strip (Lister / Multi Bladder), Keyed or Lug shafts, all manufactured in aluminium or steel to unwind and rewind any rolls of any kind of material and weight.

Friction Shafts are the ideal solution for multiple and independent rolls rewinding on the same shaft, as each one needs a proper web tension.

Web Tension Control and Load Cell Solutions for Converting & Packaging Lines

Stable web tension prevents wrinkles, telescoped rolls and web breaks during processing. R.I.K. supplies the Re SpA components that control tension from unwind to rewind, and can specify them as one integrated system rather than as separate parts.

In a closed-loop system, a Re SpA brake on the unwind stand works together with load cells that measure web tension and a controller that adjusts braking torque automatically. R.I.K. supplies each of these components: Combiflex CX and Extreme XT pneumatic brakes, Eleflex electromagnetic powder brakes for lighter webs such as film and foil, T-One and T-Two tension controllers, and CB base-mounted, CF and CH flange-mounted and CK through-shaft load cells with the Pyxis amplifier.

For flexographic and gravure printing presses, laminators and slitter rewinders, R.I.K. also supplies ReSMART and SMARTmotion web guide systems, ultrasonic and distance sensors, and the ReGuard MX inspection system to keep the web correctly positioned during the run. R.I.K. engineers can advise which combination of Re SpA brakes, sensors and controllers suits your machine, web material and line speed.

Why Choose R.I.K. Industries for Re SpA?

Authorised Distributor for Re SpA

Authorised status means you receive genuine Re SpA equipment and spare parts with full manufacturer traceability, and specifications confirmed directly with the manufacturer before supply.

Full Product Range From Pneumatic Brakes to Safety Chucks Under One Roof

Few clutch and brake suppliers in the region carry web tension control, load cells and web guiding alongside the brakes themselves. R.I.K. covers all nine Re SpA product categories in one place, in line with its position as a one-stop shop for industrial clutch and brake solutions. Where an existing installation no longer fits the application, R.I.K. also provides a brake conversion service to move it onto a better-matched Re SpA unit.
