Maxson Automatic Machinery Company has developed an air delivery system that improves the pile quality on a sheeter’s stacker.  The design improves the “press readiness” of the stacked sheets by floating the cut packets out into the stacker’s jog box, supporting the delivery of long or light weight sheets and overcoming static build up inherent […]

Maxson Automatic Machinery Company (Westerly RI USA) offers a unique design that connects the overlap carriage of the sheeter’s delivery system to the front stop assembly of the sheeter’s stacker. This feature provides the benefit of reducing set up by setting the length of the stacker’s jog box at the same time the overlap carriage […]

An ergonomically designed slitter rig module is a feature of MAXSON’s Dual Knife Rotary Sheeters. The design incorporates a switch that constantly monitors the tension of the safety cord positioned across the width of the slitter rig. If the cord is pulled, an emergency stop is initiated. Once an emergency stop is activated, the sheeter […]

Maxson Automatic Machinery Company (Westerly RI USA) debuts a new web site.  Part of the redesign strategy is to provide visitors with a highly intuitive method for finding the information they want. The redevelopment of the Customer Service section is aimed at providing multiple ways for users to improve their sheeting operation’s efficiency and productivity. […]

Maxson Automatic Machinery Company (Westerly RI USA) offers a vacuum system for its sheeter that removes dust at the slitters, insuring the cleanliness of sheeted stock and minimizing “hickies” (dust related defects) at the printing press. Suction is applied at the point of slitting removing any debris from the slit edge.  Sheet metal bonnets enclose […]

Maxson Automatic Machinery Company (Westerly RI USA) has developed a “low roll diameter” detection design that aids an Operator by automatically slowing a sheeter to a stop when a preset roll diameter is reached at the roll stand.  This feature allows the Operator to monitor other aspects of the sheeting process, yet still allows the […]

Maxson Automatic Machinery Company (Westerly RI USA) has incorporated into the web conditioning system of its high speed precision sheeters a dancer roll design.  The enhancement allows the rotary cutter to accurately maintain sheet length at high speeds regardless of the concentricity of the roll being converted. Rolls damaged during handling can affect sheet length […]

Maxson Automatic Machinery Company (Westerly RI USA) offers cleaning devices that enhance slit and cross cut quality when sheeting pressure sensitive materials or other laminates where adhesive build up on blades is likely. The design is straightforward to adjust and simple to retrofit to existing sheeters. The top slitter blades are out fitted with a […]

Maxson Automatic Machinery Company (Westerly RI USA) offers an accumulating festoon that allows inline sheeters to closely match the speed of down line processes thereby maintaining accurate sheet length.  The system provides a closed loop tension control for the roll stand, accommodating immediate speed changes that would otherwise be impossible because of the weight of […]
