The CR-N non-stop rewinder offers the option to be equipped with either shear or crush slitters for cutting purposes.
Shear slitting involves the use of sharp circular knives that move against the paper and cut through it. Shear slitting is known for producing clean and precise cuts, making it suitable for paper up to 350 g/m².
Crush slitting employs a sharp cut knives that press against a hardened roller. The cuts may be slightly less precise compared to shear slitting. However, crush slitting offers certain advantages. It allows for more frequent cuts, with a minimum distance between cuts. Additionally, during production, the position of the cuts can be manually adjusted, and the cut can be combined with perforation if desired.
