Performance
The 12SC trim cutter offers proven BloApCo design with new,
innovative maintenance and operating features to achieve higher
performance and economy. Driven by a 1-hp electric motor, the
12SC efficiently cuts continuous film, foil and paper down to 1 mil
thick, with varied knife profiles to permit cutting non-ferrous
metals, thin films, foils and polycoated paper laminate.Wear
resistant HCHC and NEOR knives handle abrasive polyesters and
Mylar. Varied cutter arrangements are available to mate with slitting
equipment. One cutter can handle multiple ribbons of trim,
depending on weight and thickness, and reduce it for pneumatic
conveying, baling, disposal or recycling. The 12SC is well-suited to
most web converting processes.
Precise Operation
Cutting with one stationary bed knife and two rotating knives, the
12SC makes two cuts per revolution at speeds from 500 to 2,000
rpm. The unit passes 1,000 cfm of air at a static pressure loss of
1.5" wg at air velocities of 5,000 fpm. Adjustment screws in the
rotor make the knives individually adjustable: knife clearance is
easy to set, and the blades are easily removed for sharpening.
Final "in-body" rotor grinding is not required. Precision
tapered
roller bearings eliminate end play and runout problems, keeping
knife-edge clearances precise for longer. Open rotor design allows fast,
free flow of cut material through the cutter housing..
Easy Installation
Installation of a 12SC trim cutter is quick and simple: The cutter is
factory-tested, tailored to your application, and shipped completely
assembled and ready to run.
