According to one or more embodiments disclosed herein, a slitting machine may include a laminated film unwinding apparatus, a release liner recovery apparatus, a cutting apparatus, and a plurality of polymer substrate strip rewinding apparatuses. The laminated film unwinding apparatus may be operable to unwind a roll of laminated film that may include at least a polymer substrate and a release liner. The release liner recovery apparatus may be operable to wind the release liner that may be released from the polymer substrate. The cutting apparatus may be operable to cut at least the polymer substrate along a machine direction to divide the polymer substrate into strips. The plurality of polymer substrate strip rewinding apparatuses may be operable to wind one or more strips of the polymer substrate onto one or more rolls. |
