For Sale: Giave RG 160 1300 — Slitter Rewinder (2013)

If you’re searching for a reliable slitting-rewinding machine ready for production, a Giave RG 160 1300 from 2013 (in top conditions) is now available for sale — an ideal fit for packaging, flexible film or paper converting businesses.

  • The Giave RG 160 1300 is an industrial-grade slitter rewinder designed to slit wide rolls (films, plastics, paper, composites) into narrower reels — then rewind them for further use or processing.
  • Thanks to a single-station unwinding unit and a double-station motorized rewinding unit, it ensures smooth, stable rewinds and efficient winding of finished reels.
  • The machine supports a wide variety of flexible materials — from thin plastic films (e.g. polypropylene, HDPE/LDPE, polyester) to paper and composite materials — offering versatility depending on your production needs.

Strengths & Why It’s a Valuable Acquisition

  • High flexibility — The ability to slit and rewind a wide range of flexible materials (plastic films, paper, composites) makes the Giave RG 160 1300 suitable for converters, packaging producers, and label/film processors.
  • High throughput — With a maximum speed up to 600 m/min and wide working width (1350 mm), it’s capable of handling large-volume jobs efficiently.
  • Precision & quality control — Integrated web-guiding (FIFE controller), independent rewinder drives, and reliable cutting mechanics help ensure accurate cuts and even rewinding — important for high-quality output and minimal waste.
  • Proven machine — visible in production — Being “visible in production” means prospective buyers can inspect the machine working, check real output and mechanical condition before purchase — a major plus over idle or unknown-history machines.

Who Should Consider This Machine

  • Packaging manufacturers working with films, laminates, or flexible packaging needing to slit and rewind wide rolls.
  • Converters and contract processors requiring a robust slitter-rewinder to re-roll, cut or reformat reels for downstream processes.
  • Companies working with a variety of materials (films, composites, paper) seeking a versatile machine rather than a single-material dedicated system.
  • Businesses aiming for high throughput and efficient, reliable output at industrial scale.


The Giave RG 160 1300 slitter-rewinder on offer stands out as a versatile, high-performance, industrial-grade machine — ideal for packaging, converting, and flexible material processing operations. Its combination of wide web capacity, high speed, material flexibility and proven working condition makes it especially attractive for companies looking to expand or upgrade their converting capabilities without resorting to multiple dedicated machines.
