Blade speed adjustment between 25% and 100%.
Siemens TP177 touch-screen control as standard.

• Advanced TP touch-screen for a leap forward in cutter control
• Precision rotary encoder length measuring in 0.025 mm increments
• Integral Siemens S7 PLC with EPROM memory back-up
• Parts storage of cut length, batch and total cut quantity
• Profibus, Ethernet and remote modem networking options.



 
Servo-Torq® Ultra
Ultimate cutting performance

• Perfect for high speed medical and small tube production
• Fully digital 3-axis AC servo motor control for optimum precision
• One motor directly drives the blade; two motors drive the infeed belts
• Perfect product feed with infeed belts moved closer to the blade
• Ideal for micro-tubing thanks to the tilt belt and air feed bush options
• Faster cutting response due to the ultra light weight blade head design
• Cuff, bubble and taper tube software options available
 

Accra-Feed™ Caterpillar infeeder/haul-offs
A range of precision twin-belt caterpillar puller units to measure and feed extrudate accurately into our cutting machines. They also provide superb speed holding for improved extrusion pull-down control.
A conveyor belt positioned after the cutter will automate cut piece collection.
It also gives improved length accuracy and cut quality by supporting the
extrudate as it exits the cutter.
