The SLITstream cutting dust removal for slitting units was especially developed to remove the generated dust directly at the knives. The new dust removal extraction hood generates a high air flow within the system directly at the upper knives. This extreme sharp air jet removal also the smallest particles. A blower will be mounted via a pipe system directly with the extraction hoods for each knife. A test filter can be installed to observe the efficiency of the system. After a knife change, the hood is positioned automatically. Not used knife blades are protected completely by the hood. No safety issues due to this feature during web treading.
Electrostatic discharge
In many cases electrostatic charge present on the substrate surface is a major factor in increasing contamination and makes particle removal more difficult. This is why our static control system is always installed prior to the cleaning process to guarantee a neutralised substrate surface and therefore facilitate easier removal of all particles.
Application:
Removes > 95% of loose particles > 30μm
Side-Flow technology for automatic self cleaning
Tool free opening and knife access
Low investment cost
Easy installation
Economical:
Increased profitability
Reduced waste and down time
Ecological:
No consumables
60% lower energy consumption compared to other systems in its class
The special SLITstream technology effects that a flow of >30m/sec parallel to the knife forwards the sheet run direction is generated. Especially for this we have developed an air duct in the hood along the knife.
