TRIM CUTTER
Model 8-3VERSATILE IMPACT-CUT ACTION
FROM PAPER TO METALMAINTAINS CUTTING EDGE WITHOUT
IN-PLACE CYLINDRICAL GRINDING
Top Performance
Model 8-3 offers proven BloApCo design with new, innovative maintenance and operating features to achieve higher performance and economy. Driven by a 5-hp electric motor, the 8-3 cuts everything from paper to heavy non-ferrous metal as thick as 0.025". Varied knife profiles make short work of corrugated and fiber board, plastic film and foil laminates and pressure-sensitive stock trim up to 13" (330.2 mm) wide. Wearresistant T-15, NEOR and carbide knives can be arrayed to match slitting equipment while reducing 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 8-3 makes two cuts per revolution at speeds from 500 to 2,000 rpm and passes 4,500 cfm of air at a static pressure loss of 1.5" wg. (7,650 m3/hr). 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. Class “O” tapered roller bearings eliminate endplay and runout problems, while the open rotor design allows fast, free flow of cut material through the cutter housing.Easy Installation
Installation of a Model 8-3 trim cutter is quick and simple: The cutter is factory-tested, tailored to your application, and shipped completely assembled and ready to run.
