Cutters

Description

The cutters, along with the granulators, are the high-performance foundation of our automated production waste, trim and matrix management systems. Specifically, our PAC cutters are the best in the industry: their blades can process almost any material safely, efficiently and quietly. They process films, sheets, ultra-thin PSA matrices and trims, foils, laminates, aluminum, paper, nonwovens, corrugated materials and fabrics (even carpets and automotive floor mats). These cutters, with more than 20,000 installations worldwide, are simply the best in the industry.

Advantages and features

The FP78 series products are ideal for materials conveyed in ducts up to 10 inches in diameter, while the FP811 series is better suited for larger sizes. They can also be equipped with rear or bottom discharge and can be installed as new or retrofitted to existing systems.

The cutter features are:

Shaftless cutting chamber and open-box rotor for free airflow and a smooth, quiet cut at constant pressure;
Rotating cylindrically ground fly knives. Our sharpening techniques ensure precision and reduced clearance, and proprietary milling processes match the fly knives to the rotor notches for secure, positive positioning and retention;
Two- or six-knife models: AISI-D2 tool steel, optional CPM (A8) or tungsten carbide, cuts film to .0005″ with a controlled knife spacing of .00025″;
Removable aluminum top cover: easy and safe access to the cutting chamber for maintenance;
Angled cutter to significantly reduce noise and provide a shock-free, low-noise shear cut;
High-precision ABEC-7 bearings: Our externally sealed bearing design prevents contamination of the waste material from contact with lubricants or other substances. The world’s best ball bearings give PAC cutters the narrowest blade-to-bed clearance;
Compact, space-saving design: A flange-mounted motor and low profile facilitate installation and eliminate the need for a bulky separate base.
