How does a slitter work?

Slitting machine is one of the widely used automation equipment in modern production lines, which is used to automatically cut coiled materials into multiple sections along a certain length or width, and can also carry out automatic measurement, counting and other processes. So, how does it work? It is mainly introduced in detail from the transmission system, cutting system, control system and other aspects.

Transmission system

The transmission system of the slitting machine is mainly composed of an electric motor, a transmission shaft, a turbine, a gear, etc. Through the transmission of the electric motor, the rotation of the transmission shaft drives the turbine and gear movement, so as to realize the relative movement of the cutting blade. The speed and strength of the transmission system are the key to the efficient and stable operation of the entire equipment.

Cutting system

The cutting system of the slitting machine is divided into two categories, namely manual cutting and automatic cutting. Automatic cutting is further divided into fixed-length cutting and quantitative cutting. Cut-to-length cutting is under the control of the transmission system and counter, with the preset length as the division unit, and automatically cut the material into multiple sections of the same length. Quantitative cutting, on the other hand, is to cut the axial material in sections according to the preset unit, which can cut out multiple parts of the material in a short time and measure its quantity.

Control system

The control system of the slitting machine includes two aspects: the electrical part and the hydraulic part. The electrical part is mainly composed of PLC, touch screen, counter, driver, etc., and the automatic control of the equipment is realized through programming or preset parameters; The hydraulic part is to control the lifting and forwarding of the equipment through the high-pressure oil pipe. The whole control system realizes automatic control and real-time monitoring of each process through integrated control to ensure the high-speed and stable operation of the entire equipment.

To sum up, the working principle of the slitting machine is mainly through the transmission system, cutting system, control system and other links for high-speed, accurate automatic slitting operation, which improves production efficiency and quality, and is widely used in all walks of life.
