Product Information

Manufacturers of plastics, films, foils, synthetic non woven materials and laminates can now sheet the product at higher speeds than conventional drop shear equipment, while insuring the square, accurate dimensions using a twin knife rotary sheeter. 

In this sheeter design, the cutting section includes knives mounted in an upper and lower rotating cylinders. The cylinders accelerate and decelerate during each revolution such that the peripheral speed of the blades and the speed of the web are equal at the cutting point maintaining sheet length accuracy and squareness. This cutting action eliminates the skive along the leading and  trailing edge on thicknesses up to 0.060" (1.5 mm) thick, without producing slivers. Using an exclusive clash arrangement, the Operator can safely adjust the cross cutting blades while the cutter is running.

The sheeting line can be equipped with an automated slitting rig module that stands alone and separate from the other sheeter components allowing accessibility during web-up. The slitters are motorized and fully automatic, moving horizontally as instructed by data entry at computer controls.
