Knowing the details of your slitting operation, can lead to higher quality and reduced costs in some unexpected ways. Many converters and paper manufacturers could have a slow but steady profit loss they may not even know about. Perhaps they have got used to frequent knife changes and time consuming set ups of a poorly designed slitter, even though it is costing them money. As companies tighten up their operations, many are discovering that they can cut costs, reduce product waste, and minimise downtime by taking a closer look at their slitting systems. Understanding the fundamentals of slitting is important, and knowing how to evaluate a system for a specific application can build up the bottom line. Something as simple as changing the process can make a big difference. The demands on industrial longitudinal slitting regarding cutting speed, dust reduction, slitting edge quality as well as machine down times are becoming higher and higher. Therefore, the efficiency of a slitting process and thus the optimum construction of the applied slitting aggregates are gaining importance.
