Industry Sectors : Foil, Film & Laminates

Film and Laminates

Many modern day film and laminates can present numerous difficulties to the common ‘through the fan’ trim extraction systems. Including the Impact precision trim cutter means that continuous ribbon waste materials such as polywrap, cling film, cellophane or difficult to cut plastics, textiles or laminated product becomes much easier to handle.

This extremely versatile unit ensures the difficult continuous waste trim is reliably and efficiently cut into an easily conveyable size.

An angled fixed bed knife and twin rotating fly knives ensure efficient ‘scissor like’ shock free operation, coupled with a ‘wrap free’ shaftless cutting chamber design.

 

 

Foil lattice waste removal

Removing foil lattice or skeletal waste during the production of food packaging can substantially improve productivity, profitability and production capacity, not to mention reduce downtime and eliminate the manual handling issues associated with rewinding waste lattice on press.

The Impact foil extraction enables many production machines to be connected to a centralised extraction system and baler to maximise recycling of the waste material. Simple but highly effective trim collection hoods are successfully integrated onto the production press. Inclusion of a local mini chopper fan ensures the lattice is broken into an easy conveyable size.
