| Description |
Solo is a single-blade log slitter (also called a roll slitter). A log slitter uses a single, large circular blade to cut all the way through a roll of material, which is typically on a 3" (7.62cm) paper or plastic core. As the operator brings the blade against the roll of material, which is spinning on the mandrel (shaft), the blade cuts through the material and core in just a few seconds. Compared to rewind slitters, log slitters make single cuts very fast, are easy to set up, quick to change logs, and are able to cut adhesive materials. |
Maximus is a multi-blade rewind crush slitter. Rewind slitters slit material while rewinding it (also referred to as converting). The material is unwound from the master roll through one or more rollers before reaching multiple cutting blades, where it is slit, then rewound onto empty recovery cores. In addition to cutting material, rewind slitters can be used simply for transferring a certain amount of material from one roll to another. Compared to log slitters, rewind slitters can make multiple cuts simultaneously and recover a measured amount of material (rewind) from a master roll. |
