SOMERSET, WI, June 25, 2025 – Preco, LLC, a leading material processing systems designer and manufacturer specializing in laser and die-cutting solutions and contract manufacturing services (CMS), announced that its new in-house Ashe slitting machine with integrated in-line laser processing for scoring, perforating, and slitting in a single, streamlined pass is fully operational.
The slitter enables Preco to process jumbo rolls up to 65 inches wide, with cut widths as narrow as 1.5 inches, supporting both razor and shear cut configurations. This internal capability eliminates the need for third-party slitting and allows for a true one-stop solution, from raw material prep to laser processing and final delivery.

The system features:
- In-line 8-lane laser processing for micro-perforation and scoring
- Shear cut capabilities for cleaner, stronger edges
- Laser slitting for clean, fiber-free cuts ideal for technical materials
- One-pass processing for improved throughput and consistency
Designed to meet the evolving needs of Preco’s flexible packaging and converting customers, the slitter also positions the company for broader strategic growth.
