Excel Slitter-Scorer

Product Description

The Excel Slitter/Scorer has, as standard, one slit and two score sections with the option to add another score section (automatic or manual) if required. The score tools on one section preset while tools on the other section are operating. At order change, the score tools quickly lift out of the board line, while the new order tools plunge in. The individual servo motor positioning slit tools, with on-head sharpening and lubrication, rapidly reset to the next order positions for back-to-back order changes. Its compact footprint and modern controls allow integration into most corrugator lines.

Superior Slit Quality

Large trim savings are possible with the narrowest trim specification in the industry. 

Industry Leading Accuracy

The score tools on each axis are accurately positioned in the cross-machine direction by a simple, fast, robust robot. The individual slit tools have a dedicated servo motor to precisely set the slit tool in the desired position. Accurate tool positioning results in quality boxes and reliable automatic case erector operations. 

Superior Score Flexibility with narrow spacing

Multiple score sections can be run to achieve zero score spacing and greater variety of score tool profiles. Different score types can be fitted to a single score axis. Three-in-One score profiles are available.
