TUSA® Automated Turn-Up Systems


TUSA® Benefits
The TUSA® Line
Band Delivery Systems

Pure & Simple

Behold, one of the greatest inventions of all times. The needle is straightforward effective and reliable. There are no moving parts. For over 20,000 years it remains the implement of choice for sewing. SANDAR applied this pure and simple philosophy in developing its Turn-Up System.

Safety First

No longer will your operators be dangerously close to a speeding web during reel turn-up. Operator involvement is limited to loading consumable materials and routine cleaning.

Modular Design

All sub-assemblies are easily replaced by removal of two aircraft pins.

An Investment That Pays!

the TUSA® executes smooth turn-ups, vertually eliminating wrinkles and wasted production. Efficient turn-ups can increase production over 2% by reducing lost saleable tonnage at real, easily and quickly paying for the cost of theequipment.

Over 1000 Systems Installed Worldwide!

Sandar has pioneered the development of what has become the industry standard for automated turn-ups. Today, mills worldwide rely on Sandar�s turn-up systems to increase production, save money and assure a safer environment at the reel.
