The World’s First Truly Automatic Cutting Cycle – FEBA Revolutionizes Lathe Slitting
Having constructed over 2000 various types of slitting & converting machinery for the adhesive tape & general converting industries, FEBA prides themselves in offering their customers the most up to date & technically efficient production machinery. Its strong relations with industrial automation & electronic specialists in the Milan region of Italy have allowed FEBA to borrow a vision from the industrial transportation field (Electro-Magnetic Displacement System) and applied it to the mechanical & electrical efficiency of their lathe slitting line thus effectively removing mechanical servicing & lubrication from the most critical portions of an automatic log slitter.
EMDS actually lifts the slitting head and moves it to the next slitting position, faster than lead screws, without any mechanical inertia what so ever. The EMDS has also been fitted to perform the slitting action (blade penetration) and has been extremely successful on dealing with high density automotive foams at narrow slit widths as well as mid yardage filmic tapes. The newEMDS single knife log slitter now incorporates automatic roll edge acquisition, whereby the operator leaves the machine to automatically find the edge of the log and traverse to the pre-determined trim width. Add to this programmable blade AXIS angles and the new electro-magnetic displacement system (another world’s first which removes the need for lead screws and pistons) and you have the world’s first Truly Automatic Cutting System, without any operator intervention.
Take in to account that, in order to cut the overall cost in lathe slitting conversion, thus increasing profitability, machine users are looking toward Lean Manufacturing techniques that allow one machine to be extremely flexible, handling all blade sizes, log sizes and slit width changes, quickly and efficiently. Having to set any machine manually totally ruins the inherent basis for lean manufacturing and will only have a detrimental effect on production and profitability.
Ideally suited for Lean Manufacturing Techniques, the new EMDS also improves cycle times by up to 35%, removes the need for lubrication of the displacement system and reduces noise, vibration and wear & tear.
