Vector Die-Cutting Modules for Multiple Product Patterns

Aug. 3, 2006
Schober USA introduces their new Vector line of die-cutting modules for the punching, perforating, or cross-cutting of various product patterns. This unique technology can be easily integrated into existing roll printing presses or converting machines. Base module includes servo drive, web register and shaft encoder for master machine. Working widths are available from 260 mm (10 1/8”) to 1420 mm (55 3/8”) with speeds to 500 m/min (1640 ft/min). New Vector technology for punching, perforating, or cross- is ideal for the production of gable top cartons, juice pouches, juice boxes, and other packaging applications. A heavy duty modular frame with 2 pairs of high precision bearing blocks ensures precise alignment. Dynamically balanced super-CR anvil cylinder is hardened and ground. Cutting rotor is dynamically balanced and features dual knives for higher production rates and greater precision. Drive includes register mark sensor and control system, rotary transducer for master machine, and servo-motor with gearbox and control unit. An operator panel is included along with a PC monitor and board. All electrical components are housed in the NEMA 4 cabinet. • Working width: up to 80" (2500 mm) • Tool circumference: up to 65" (1650 mm) • Speed: Max mechanical speeds can reach up to 1000 ft/min (300 m/min). The possible production speed depends additionally also on the waste removal etc.
