In-line Slitting Machines for foam PVC

This type of machine applies state-of-the-art technology to the longitudinal cutting, of PVC foam boards, extruded in single or dual strand, honeycomb rigid PVC panels and flat “sandwich” plastic panels in general, directly in the extrusion line, without making any dust or swarf.

The units for the longitudinal cut (SM/L versions for cutting thickness up to 10 mm or up to 25 mm) and transversal cut (SM/T version), can be used individually or even in combination with each other, depending on the production requirements.

In-line cutting occurs at a high speed, which reaches up to 8 m/min. Moreover, thanks to the pneumatic adjustment of the blade in height, it is possible to quickly adapt the machine setting to the extruded product.

Advantages

• Clean, precise cut with no dust, swarfs/burrs
• Multiple longitudinal cuts using up to three cutting heads
• Suitable for cutting PVC foam boards, extruded in single or dual strand, honeycomb rigid PVC panels and flat “sandwich” plastic panels in general, directly in the extrusion line
• Pneumatically controlled blade height adjustment
• Modular and versatile
• Leading brand components
• Reliability of the process and energy saving
• Reduction of production costs thanks to their high productivity and low maintenance costs
• Easy use and maintenance

Longitudinal Slitting Machines: SM/L

Available in versions with one, two or three cutting heads, they allow longitudinally cutting of 1500 mm wide panels.

The position of the cut assembly can be set according to the desired width by means of a manual or motorized (optional) adjustment of the heads.

This technology is particularly suitable for cutting PVC foam boards, extruded in single or dual strand, rigid PVC honeycomb profiles and even “sandwich” type plastic panels, without making any dust or swarf.

Technical Features

• Suitable for cutting PVC foam boards, extruded in single or dual strand, honeycomb rigid PVC panels, cladding profiles and also flat “sandwich” plastic panels in general
• Cutting speeds of up to 8 m/min
• Cutting of panels up to 1500 mm in width (standard version)
• Pneumatically driven blade height adjustment
• Motor-driven cutting position adjustment (optional)
• Motor-driven blade (optional)
• Heated blade (optional)
• Profile preheating system (optional)

Transversal Slitting Machine: SM/T

The version for transversal cutting, the SM/T, suited to the in-line cutting of ceiling and wall cladding panels, extruded in single or dual strand, or honeycomb panels, and has a working range of up to 850 mm in the (standard version). The blade rotation is motor-driven, to guarantee an efficient cutting process.
In both versions, there is the option of fitting an electrical heater to preheat the panel to facilitate cutting and optimise machine performance.
The frame made of painted, electro-welded box section steel, the structures supporting the moving parts in anodised aluminium and the parts in contact with the profile in stainless steel all makes this a top-quality machine.

Technical Features

• Suitable for cutting PVC foam boards, extruded in single or dual strand, honeycomb rigid PVC panels and also flat “sandwich” plastic panels in general
• Cutting speeds of up to 8 m/min
• Cutting of panels of up to 850 mm in width (standard version)
• Motor-driven heated blade
• Pneumatically controlled blade height adjustment
• Motor driven transversal blade movement
• Carriage movement with servomotors
• Pneumatically operated profile clamps
• Profile preheating system (optional)
• Major brand components
