How wide is the web?
On a multilane machine one wide roll feeds every lane. As a planning rule, each lane takes twice the stick width plus about 10 mm (0.4 in) for the back seal, so the web width is lanes × (2 × stick width + 10 mm).
| Stick width | 4 lanes | 6 lanes | 8 lanes | 10 lanes | 12 lanes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 25 mm (1.0 in) | 240 mm | 360 mm | 480 mm | 600 mm | 720 mm |
| 35 mm (1.4 in) | 320 mm | 480 mm | 640 mm | 800 mm | 960 mm |
| 45 mm (1.8 in) | 400 mm | 600 mm | 800 mm | 1,000 mm | 1,200 mm |
Planning estimates. The exact web width, lane pitch and eye-mark position come from your machine's film drawing, and we confirm them before anything is printed. For your own sizes, use the film calculator and choose stick pack.
