Fields of Application for Cross-Cutting Machines

December 25, 2023

The cross-cutting machine is a device that cuts continuous coils into sheets or plates of specific lengths. It is widely used in industries that require high-precision fixed-length cutting. The following describes its application scenarios from different fields.

1. Packaging industry

1.1 Project background:

Packaging materials such as kraft paper, cardboard, and corrugated cardboard need to be cut horizontally according to the finished product size to meet the customized needs of e-commerce, logistics and other scenarios.

1.2 Solution:

The cross-cutting machine adopts a servo drive system and photoelectric positioning technology to achieve high-speed continuous cutting and support materials of various thicknesses.

1.3 Application case:

A carton factory uses a fully automatic cross-cutting machine to cut roll corrugated cardboard into carton blanks of different specifications to adapt to the size of e-commerce packages.

1.4 Advantages of cross-cutting machine:

Cutting accuracy reaches ±0.2mm, the incision is smooth and burr-free, and the production efficiency can reach 200 cuts/minute.

1.5 Future development:

Integrate AI algorithm to optimize cutting and nesting schemes to reduce waste of scraps; combine AR technology to realize visual training of equipment operation.

2. Printing industry

2.1 Project background:

The printed roll paper (such as book pages and posters) needs to be cut horizontally according to the finished product size to ensure uniform binding or display specifications.

2.2 Solution:

Equipped with high-precision correction system and visual inspection device, real-time calibration of cutting position to avoid misalignment of images and texts.

2.3 Application case:

A printing company uses a cross-cutting machine to cut the printed roll coated paper into A4 size and directly enter the notebook binding line.

2.4 Advantages of cross-cutting machine: Supports synchronous cross-cutting and stacking (such as 1000 sheets/minute), reducing manual sorting; suitable for special paper (such as embossed paper, hot stamping paper).

2.5 Future development: Introduce blockchain technology to trace the cutting parameters of each batch to meet the quality certification requirements of high-end printed products.

3. Plastic industry

3.1 Project background:

Plastic films, PVC sheets, etc. need to be cut to a fixed length for products such as blister packaging and advertising display boards.

3.2 Solution:

Ultrasonic cross-cutting knife technology achieves chip-free cutting and avoids material melt adhesion, especially suitable for heat-sensitive plastics (such as PETG).

3.3 Application case:

An advertising company uses a cross-cutting machine to cut wide PVC coils into 2m×1m outdoor advertising board substrates.

3.4 Advantages of the cross-cutting machine:

The cutting speed can reach 50m/min, suitable for transparent/colored materials; equipped with a dust removal system to keep the working environment clean.

3.5 Future development: Develop a special cross-cutting module for degradable plastics to avoid material performance degradation during the cutting process.

4. New energy industry

4.1 Project background:

Materials such as lithium battery diaphragms and photovoltaic backplanes require high cleanliness cross-cutting to meet the requirements of battery assembly or solar panel lamination processes.

4.2 Solution:

A special cross-cutting machine for dust-free workshops is equipped with an ion wind cleaning device to ensure that there is no dust pollution during the cutting process.

4.3 Application case:

A lithium battery company cross-cuts 12μm thick PE diaphragms into standard cell lengths (such as 650mm) and directly enters the stacking machine.

4.4 Advantages of the cross-cutting machine:

cutting accuracy ±0.1mm, no wrinkles on the diaphragm; support for online quality detection (such as thickness, porosity).

4.5 Future development:

Develop cross-cutting equipment specifically for hydrogen fuel cell proton exchange membranes to solve the problem of easy tearing of ultra-thin (<10μm) materials
