Equipment / Pneumatic Upper Knife Holders
Pneumatic upper knife holders play a pivotal role in various machines like slitters, calendering machines, and flexo machines. They ensure precision and accuracy in cutting operations, tailored to meet the unique requirements of each machine. Developed to the highest standards with tolerances as fine as 100 parts per mm, these holders guarantee optimal performance for each unit.
These pneumatic upper knife holders offer rapid adjustment times and quick blade change capabilities, making them a preferred choice for machine operators. They are adaptable to different blade types, including upper knives and razors.
To cater to the diverse needs of our clients, these knife holders are custom-made and can be integrated into cutting modules ready for production. The modules come equipped with both upper knife holders and lower knives, providing a complete and seamless cutting solution.
Continuous improvement and innovation are at the forefront of our design for pneumatic upper knife holders, allowing us to stay ahead of the competition and meet our customers’ evolving needs.
Scissor cutting is a method that uses an upper knife and a motorized lower knife. These knives work in tandem to cut the material. This technique is ideal for a wide range of materials as it offers high-quality cuts and extends the life of the blades. The key to scissor cutting is having the two knives work together in perfect alignment, resulting in a clean and precise cut, even with challenging materials.
Enhanced Accuracy: The two knives work in perfect alignment, resulting in a clean and precise cut.
Extended Blade Life: Scissor cutting extends the life of the blades, as they are not subjected to unnecessary wear and strain.
Suitable for a Wide Range of Materials: Scissor cutting can be used for a variety of materials, making it a versatile cutting solution.
Razor blade cutting is a method that utilizes razor blades or industrial blades. The blades are typically held in place by pneumatic upper knife holders, enabling efficient and precise cutting. These pneumatic upper knife holders are designed with a robust safety system to ensure safe operation in any cutting scenario. Razor blade cutting is ideal for materials requiring a high degree of precision and accuracy, as the sharp blade delivers a clean and precise cut.
Enhanced Accuracy: The sharp razor blades provide a clean and precise cut, ideal for materials requiring high precision.
Increased Speed: Pneumatic upper knife holders allow for quick adjustment time and fast blade changes, making the cutting process more efficient.
Improved Safety: The robust safety system in the pneumatic upper knife holders ensures safety and stable operation.
Crush cutting is a method where an upper knife is pressed against a hard surface, usually a roller, to make the cut. The pressure from the upper knife enables efficient cutting and improved precision. This cutting technique is typically used in applications where precision is paramount, and a clean and precise cut is required. However, it is not recommended for soft or flexible materials like plastic films, as it may result in a rough and uneven cut.
Enhanced Precision: The pressure applied by the upper knife results in a clean and precise cut.
Increased Efficiency: The crush cutting method allows for efficient cutting, even with hard materials like metal, leather, and rubber.
Improved Safety: The integrated safety system for crush cutting ensures safe operation.
