Machine Model for Improvement

SHM 1400 SR

Description of Improvement

This upgrade is part of the Technical Improvement Program (TIP); it includes installation of four self-adhesive flexible heaters. Each knife roll bearing housing has two heaters. 

These heaters are controlled and monitored by a temperature controller mounted on the main panel. The knife must not be rotated until the bearing temperatures have reached the preset values.

If the knife stops in a cut zone prior to long shut down, knife must be manually moved out of cut zone.

Benefits

  • Significantly reduces knife clashes during cold startup
  • More consistent operation and cut quality
  • Improved knife life
