Product Features

Saber Knife offers the performance and reliability that will improve profitability for any corrugator plant. Short sheets can be cut at much higher speeds for a significant production increase.

  • Cut capability up to 450 mpm (1500 fpm).
  • Superior cylinder performance with excellent cut accuracy and extended intervals between blade tuning.
  • High performance with low energy consumption.
  • Closed-loop, liquid-cooling system keeps contaminants out for improved reliability.
  • Walk-in access is convenient and safe.
  • Simplified controls design reduces maintenance costs. 

Industry leading speed curve up to 450 mpm

The Saber Knife speed is available in various speed configurations. Increase up to 450 MPM by simply adding extra motors and controls. A 300 MPM model can be upgraded to a 350 MPM or higher in just a weekend.

Superior Cylinder Performance

This Marquip design has been further improved to make it the best-in-class design. The blades can be sharpened on the machine and run for weeks without stopping for tuning.

High Performance and low energy consumption

The Saber Knife features ultra-efficient electrical and mechanical designs to provide the lowest energy consumption of any corrugator cutoff knife. The Saber Knife average power consumption requirement is only 20 kVA per level.

Closed-loop, liquid cooled system

Designed specifically for hot/dusty environments. This very effective cooling system increases the life of the electrical components and increases their performance. Liquid-motor knife technology enhances their reliability. There are no air filters to replace and there are no brushes or electromechanical contacts to wear.
