TIP F 1230 Replacement of all Solenoids of the Slitter by a New Solenoid Terminal

All Jagenberg sheeters with automatic slitter positioning and single valves

Over time, after years of intensive daily, around the clock production, the reliability of the valves has been drastically reduced. An unexpected production stop is likely. The production of the original type of solenoids has been discontinued since many years and are therefore, not available anymore as a spare part.

This upgrade from the Technical Improvement Program (TIP) replaces all the single solenoids of the slitter function by a new solenoid terminal. The new solenoid terminal will be installed in a separate cabinet and mounted at the basic machine. The pressure control will also be replaced. The pneumatic tubing to the actors and flexible cable trays will remain unchanged.

This upgrade increases the reliability of the sheeter as the new parts are standard components. With the latest technology of the solenoids the maintenance effort for the slitter section will be reduced and spare parts availability is ensured.
