Automatic Core Cutting Machine for Paper and Plastic Tubes

The Cater-A is a fully automatic core cutting machine developed for efficient cutting of paper cores and plastic tubes used in converting, flexible packaging, film, tape, label, and paper production industries.

Designed for continuous operation, the Cater-A combines automated core handling, high cutting precision, and dust-free cutting technology to help manufacturers improve production efficiency, reduce manual handling, and maintain stable cutting quality throughout demanding production cycles.

As a fully automatic paper core cutting machine, the Cater-A is ideal for companies processing high production volumes and requiring reliable, repeatable, and operator-friendly core cutting performance.

Fully Automatic Core Cutting for Continuous Production

The Cater-A automatic core cutter is equipped with an advanced automatic loading system that allows parent cores to be processed in a fully automatic cycle. Operators simply load the cores into the loading unit and program the required slit widths and cutting lengths through the control panel, after which the automatic core cutter machine performs the cutting process automatically.

The automated workflow helps reduce operator involvement, improve production efficiency, and minimize downtime between production runs. The control system also supports efficient setup and repeatable production parameters for recurring cutting jobs. The machine is available both with and without the automatic loading device depending on production setup and automation requirements.

Dust Free Paper Core Cutting Technology

The Cater-A uses circular knife cutting technology for dust free cutting of paper cores and plastic tubes compared to traditional saw cutting methods. Clean and stable cutting performance is especially important in converting and flexible packaging production where paper dust can negatively affect production cleanliness, winding stability, and downstream processing equipment.

The fully automatic paper core cutting machine delivers clean, straight, and repeatable cuts while minimizing deformation of the core material.

Flexible Automatic Core Cutter for Multiple Applications

The Cater-A automatic plastic tube cutting machine is designed to handle multiple core diameters, parent core lengths, and production requirements. Flexible programming and efficient setup allow manufacturers to process varying slit widths and production runs with minimal changeover time. Adjustable cutting speeds allow the machine to adapt to different core materials, wall thicknesses, and production requirements while maintaining stable and consistent cutting performance.

Typical applications include:

• Film converting
• Flexible packaging production
• Tape and label production
• Slitting and rewinding operations
• Paper converting
• Nonwoven and textile production
