Slip Shaft & Differential Winding Solutions
Slip shafts, slip rings and friction elements for slitting, rewinding and multi-roll winding applications.
KENDORIC supplies multiple slip shaft structures for slitting and rewinding lines where finished rolls require controlled torque, stable core contact and balanced winding quality.
How Slip Shafts Work
Independent slip control for differential winding.
Slip shafts allow each finished roll to slip independently during rewinding. This helps compensate for small roll diameter differences after slitting and keeps each roll under more consistent winding torque.
- Differential winding for multiple rolls
- Torque compensation between finished rolls
- Stable core contact
- Improved finished roll quality
Six Slip Shaft Types
Select the shaft and ring structure according to core size, finished roll width, material sensitivity, roll weight and required winding tension range.
Low Tension Slip Shaft
Low tension slip shafts are designed for sensitive materials that require stable winding at low air pressure and low torque.

DS Slip Shaft
DS slip shafts provide pneumatic locking and controlled slip for medium-tension film slitting and rewinding applications.

Ball Slip Shaft
Ball slip shafts can be configured as center-air, pneumatic side-pressure or mechanical side-pressure slip shafts for flexible narrow-roll winding.

Double Ball and Roller Slip Shaft
Double ball and roller slip shafts use extended expansion contact points to support stable core holding and winding torque.

Key Slip Shaft
Key slip shafts use rectangular metal or rubber keys to expand and contact the core for controlled differential winding.
View DetailsApplication Fit
Built for slitting, rewinding and multi-roll winding.
Slip shafts help compensate for small roll diameter differences after slitting, so each finished roll can wind with a more controlled and consistent torque.
- Film, paper, label stock, foil and composite webs.
- Lithium battery-related separator, electrode, copper foil and aluminum foil slitting or rewinding applications where suitable.
- Packaging film, electronic film, PET film and soft packaging composite film.
