the future of paper tail threading
engineered for reliable tail transfer.
High-speed paper machines require precise coordination during threading. Our automated tail threading systems combine mechanical devices, vacuum systems, and intelligent controls to guide the tail safely and consistently through machine sections.
We configure each system to match mill-specific layouts and operating conditions, ensuring dependable threading performance and minimal production disruption.
systems designed in collaboration & proven worldwide in operation.

what successful threading looks like.
During papermaking, every second of downtime impacts revenue. Our automated tail threading products deliver precise, repeatable performance to keep your machines and production running smoothly.
Instantly catch and stabilize the paper tail right after a break.
Creates a clean, perfect tail edge to eliminate tracking errors and line-up transfers.
Customized vacuum systems safely feed the tail through the machine sections wet end.
The narrow tail is smoothly broadened back out to full sheet width.
custom built for your machine.
No two mills or threading setups are identical. Our engineering team works closely with you to design threading systems that fit the unique layout, speed, and operational requirements of your machine.
Whether upgrading existing installations to new machine builds, Mantech provides complete design, manufacturing, and integration support.

from concept to commissioning.
Every threading system we build begins with a conversation. We work closely with you and your team through planning, design, manufacturing, and final commissioning to ensure that each component integrates seamlessly with your machine. The result isn’t just a successful installation, it’s a partnership built on trust.
Initial discussions focus on your machine configuration, operational challenges, and project objectives. We take the time to understand how your system runs day-to-day, where inefficiencies occur, and what success looks like for your team. This stage helps define the project scope while uncovering opportunities for improved performance, safety, and reliability.
Our service team gathers detailed on-site data and collaborates closely with your operators. Our designer and manufacturing experts then review system concepts for reliability before final approval.
We manufacture, assemble and test all components at our own facility. In-shop testing involves both our designer and service technicians to ensure flawless performance before we ship.
Our customer service and after-sales support are what truly set us apart from our competitors. Our technicians have personally visited over 100 mills across 19 countries, and are equipped to provide direct, reliable support whenever you need it post-project.
