PEM-C520
CONVERTING SYSTEM
Membrane Cutter
Our fully automated converting and cutting line sets new standards for the precise splitting of parent rolls into smaller rolls and the cutting out of defective areas after material testing and surface inspection. Thanks to its particularly gentle web guiding, it is used, for example, as a membrane cutter for high-quality PEM products. Optionally, we also design systems for quality control.
With our market-proven solutions, you are gaining a competitive edge.
Features
Low-friction
Minimum inertia for lowest web tension: The system is characterized by minimal breakaway torques, low friction and acceleration ramps that are gentle on the material.
Web Width Measurment
As standard, the cutting width is determined with a high-precision line camera, which can also check the quality and precision of the cut.
Material testing and inspection
Various optional procedures for material testing and surface inspection ensure the quality of the end product.
Climate chamber
Since environmental influences such as humidity have a major impact on the materials, the system can also be built into a protective climate chamber.
Individual machine design thanks to placeholders
Placeholders let you integrate further optional inspection and testing methods, such as X‑RAY sensor technology and ultrasonic layer thickness measurement. The specific design of the system to the materials to be processed, individual functions on the HMI and interfaces to various customer systems (e.g. MES).
Web tension control
All controllers and components are designed for lowest web tension. The parallelism of the rolls is optically measured.
Precise winding is ensured even with the lowest web tension via web center control of the unwinding and rewinding components. Sensitively programmed acceleration ramps round off the system.
Web control
Web speed and running meters can be checked and compared via the leading axis, or contact-free via a laser sensor.
Markings can be recorded and further processed by the vision sensor after unwinding.
Individual machine design
The specific design of the system to the materials to be processed, individual functions on the HMI and interfaces to various customer systems (e.g. MES).
Areas of application
Our system is the ideal solution for growing companies and emerging market leaders who demand the highest standards of safety and quality for their PEM products.
