Maintains Cutting Edge Without In-Place Cylindrical Grinding

Performance
The 5TOB trim cutter offers proven BloApCo design with new,
innovative maintenance and operating features to achieve higher
performance and economy. Driven by a 2-hp electric motor, the
5TOB impact-cuts everything from paper to tough films to metal
foil down to 3 mil thick. Varied knife profiles make short work of
corrugated and heavy laminated trim up to 81/2" wide. A variety
of
wear-resistant HCHC, NEOR and carbide-edge knives can be
arrayed to mate with slitting equipment and can reduce multiple
ribbons of trim, depending on weight and thickness, for pneumatic
conveying, baling, disposal or recycling.
Precise Operation
Cutting with one stationary bed knife and two rotating knives, the
5TOB makes two cuts per revolution at speeds from 500 to 2,000
rpm and passes 3,000 cfm of air at a static pressure loss of 1.5"
wg at air velocities of 5,000 fpm. Rotor-mounted set screws make
the knives individually and easily adjustable for maximum
precision – and easy to remove for sharpening, with no need for
“in-body” rotor grinding. Precision tapered roller bearings
eliminate end play and runout problems, keeping clearances
precise longer. Open rotor design allows fast, free flow of cut
material through the cutter housing.
Easy Installation
Installation of a 5TOB trim cutter is quick and simple: The cutter is
factory-tested, tailored to your application, and shipped completely
assembled and ready to run.
