Turing Ideas Into Precision: End-to-End Converting 

At Lohmann, converting means more than just processing adhesive materials – it’s about delivering smart, reliable solutions that empower your innovation. As your trusted partner at eye level, we offer everything from one source: from material selection to prototyping, scalable production, slitting, packaging, and quality assurance. Whether you require prototypes, small batches, or full-scale manufacturing – we have you covered.

Our capabilities cover the entire production spectrum:

  • Prototyping (1 to 1,000 pieces): Tailored die-cuts and manual assembly with meticulous quality control
  • Small-scale production (1,000 to 100,000 pieces): Automated die-cutting with semi-automated assembly and robust process monitoring
  • Large-scale production (over 100,000 pieces): Highly automated lines, cleanroom capabilities (EU/US), and advanced pick & place integration
  • For prototyping projects (ranging from 1 to 1,000 pieces), we offer individual die-cuts combined with manual assembly, ensuring meticulous quality control at every step.

A key part of this process is our high-precision slitting. Whether your material is adhesive-coated or not, our advanced slitting methods ensure every roll is perfectly prepared for your application – manual, semi-automated, or fully integrated into automated production environments. With multiple technologies available, we guarantee clean edges, uniform tension, and consistent performance across a wide range of substrates and formats.

Whatever the volume, whatever the challenge – Lohmann delivers converting precision you can rely on.

Our Slitting Technologies
at a Glance

Ready-to-use. Reliable. Application-specific.
Our slitting capabilities are engineered to provide the best fit for your process – ensuring material performance, reducing waste and supporting high-quality production environments.

Lathe-Slitting

Lathe / Log Slitting


This high-precision method involves rotating the material on a mandrel while a lubricated circular blade slices it to the desired width. It is ideal for narrow rolls and delivers excellent edge quality – even down to 2 mm widths. Commonly used for adhesive-coated materials.

Razor Blade

Razor Blade Slitting


Perfect for thin, delicate substrates like foils, films, nonwovens, or open-faced adhesive tapes. Material is unwound from a master roll and pulled through stationary blades. Both razor-in-air and razor-in-groove options are available depending on material type and speed requirements. Typical minimum slit width: 20 mm.

Crush

Crush / Score Slitting


Using a rounded blade and an anvil, the material is “crushed” apart. This is particularly effective for pressure-sensitive adhesives, as it helps create clean, dry edges. It also works well for diverse substrates including foams, textiles, rubbers and nonwovens. Minimum slit width: 20 mm.

Shear-Scissor

Shear (Scissor) Slitting


This method uses paired rotary blades – male and female – to slice through the material like scissors. It offers minimal dust and excellent edge quality, making it suitable for a wide range of materials: from thin films and papers to tapes and textiles. Slit widths as narrow as 10 mm are possible.

We support you from the idea to its integration into your process.
