Double E Acquires Rights to Mario Cotta Slitting Products in North America and Germany
The Double E Company recently acquired the exclusive rights to sell and service Mario Cotta’s advanced line of slitting systems, knife holders and knives in North America and Germany. The deal, which became effective last month, is between Double E and Zincometal, the parent company of Mario Cotta, located in Inveruno, Italy. Mark Fortin, president of Double E, explained that the match made perfect sense for both companies because of the obvious synergy between the two. He said, “Double E now has a top-quality line of slitting products to complement its other converting accessories, and Mario Cotta has a strong local partner to deliver outstanding service to North America and Germany.” He said that this was a necessary giant step in making Double E a complete resource for web handling solutions. Mario Cotta slitting products include automatic positioning systems, knife holders, blades, anvils, and other accessories.
Mario Cotta slitting systems can handle very narrow web widths. In this case, the converter needed to slit down to 1.75".
Linking drift pin allows concurrent positioning of the knife holder and anvil.
