Oak Brook, Illinois – Maxcess, a global leader in innovative products and services for automated web handling applications, today announced the launch of Tidland SmartSlit automated slitting system. Tidland SmartSlit ensures automatic and precise placement of slitting blades, eliminating the need for manual adjustments, and dramatically reducing set up time.
“SmartSlit is ideal for Tag & Label producers and narrow web converters looking to automate manual finishing operations or add finishing operations to their current lines. It is a safe, versatile, user-friendly solution to slitting operations, significantly enhancing productivity, and reducing operational costs,” noted Richard Provencher, Global Product Manager for Tidland Slitting and Winding. “Our automatic machinery movement minimizes manual hand adjustment and reduces safety concerns and operator errors. Users get improved ergonomics and greater accuracy vs. manual position alternatives. You can also store repeat jobs for reuse later. The best part is Tidland SmartSlit usually pays for itself in less than two years compared to manual systems on the market,” Provencher concluded.
Some of the unique features of the Tidland SmartSlit include:
• The ability to have a maximum of 24 knives – about twice what the competition offers
• A maximum web width of 48” (1220mm) – nearly 50% wider than most competitors offer
• The option to run either automated or manual
• Removable blade cartridges
• Ability to autoscan current slit position
• Easy to train and intuitive operations
