Function
The top blade is powered via a geared motor and drives the spring-mounted bottom blade. The device is always positioned in a user-friendly manner using a motor at the touch of a button or using automatic follow-up based on the web edge.
Minimal edge waste is only achieved when the web edge is fully unrolled. E+L can offer an integrated mechanical spreading unit (E+L patent) for this and, alternatively, a pneumatic solution for its cutting systems.
Noise-dampened side channel compressors are available for the removal of any edge waste.
Area of use
The edge cutting technology is used at the outfeed of the following systems: Stenter, compactor and sanforizing systems.
Application
At the end of the machine, the web is removed from the pins with an initial path roller. Two further path rollers form the cutting level. See graphic alongside.
