Filtration media sheeter triples productivity

Press release from the issuing company

Westerly RI - Maxson Automatic Machinery Company offers a sheeter designed to convert rolls of filtration papers and non-woven material into finished sheet sizes.  Equipped with multiple roll stands, precision accuracy, and exact counting and marking of reams, the sheeter triples the productivity of operations that use conventional converting methods.
 
The cutter's dual motor drive sheet length control, anti static devices and customized jogging system allows for high speed conversion of multiple webs of up to 220 lbs/330 sq ft (325 gsm) material on cut offs between 15" – 60" (380 – 1525 mm) lengths that eliminate the need for secondary handling of sheets after stacking.
 
The innovative use of air and anti static components permits speeds as high as 600 fpm (185 mpm) on the flimsiest filtration media material.  Introducing ionized air at the time of the cutting action, overlapping of sheets and in the delivery of the cut packet into the stacker allow for jam free operation at higher speeds.
 
Using MAXSON's counting and marking design ream counts as small as 25 sheets can be accurately and reliably identified allowing for small batch orders to be individually packaged after sheeting.
