MAXSON AUTOMATIC MACHINERY COMPANY offers a sheeter that permits converters and printers to produce preprinted holographic material sheets. The precision sheeter is equipped with a shaftless unwind, web steering unit, slitter rig, and cut to the registration system.
The sheeter is outfitted with a high-resolution scanner that can detect registration marks embedded in the holographic web. A sophisticated motion control program governs the crosscut’s positioning to maintain tolerances to within +/-0.010” (+/-0.25 mm) of the registration mark, regardless of sheet length or line speed.
The sheeter ensures exceptional product quality by continuously monitoring the accuracy of sheet registration. Any sheets that do not maintain accuracy specification are automatically diverted from the sheet flow to the stacker via a reject gate positioned immediately after the cutter.
Outfitted before the infeed of MAXSON’s precision sheeters, the web steering design can align the edge of an incoming web, permitting multiple pile work without wasteful edge trim. The same technique can guide preprinted material, track a line or edge, and accurately cut to a registered mark.
