Longer service life of the roller cutter in less labour time

The main advantages are:
– reduced line downtime
– longer service life of roller cutters and cuttershafts
– no grinding dust on slitter (hygiene)
– minimal labour costs

Our cutter grinding bench (CGB) now offers a fully automated grinding process (repair or pre-grinding + fine grinding).

In contrast to grinding at the slitter, i.e. in the production line, where the process must be as fast as possible to minimise line downtime, “offline grinding” allows you to take the time you need. By taking longer to spark out after fine grinding, an optimally sharp cutting edge is achieved, which significantly increases its service life.

Both grinding discs, the one for repair or pre-grinding and the one for fine grinding, are automatically positioned on the roller cutter and accidental damage caused by manual positioning is avoided. The continuous feed rate during the grinding process is 0.01 mm/min.

Both grinding discs, the one for repair or pre-grinding and the one for fine grinding, are automatically positioned on the cutting edge of the roller cutter by sensor-controlled probing. The continuous feed rate during the grinding process is 0.01 mm/min.

Crown Food Europe in Concarneau Cedex / France has commissioned a brand new, state-of-the-art 6-color litho line with separate coating station.

Crown also relies on the most advanced system for quality control; our QMC All-In-One Control System 4.0

At the end of April 2021, we have the pleasure of delivering the 400th SQM. The accessory device for slitters controls the squareness of sheets in order to avoid errors in the further production process and to increase line efficiency. The device convinces with its simple installation, reliable function and with the combination option for automatic sorting out of defective sheets.

Based on the experience with the SQM and our other quality control products, we have developed the powerful QMC for complete (!) quality control and fully-automatic sorting out of defective sheets.

True to the motto “A good can is born with a good blank”, we are your partner for all aspects of blank-cutting and are happy to support you!

100 % On-Line Quality Control
QMC (Qualimation Control) is the most advanced system for complete (!) quality control on coating lines. The system detects all defective sheet positions:

Powerful and user-friendly
The detected values are displayed in real time and easy to understand on an intuitive touch screen.

Industry 4.0 ready
Integration into in-house systems for monitoring or evaluating production is easily possible through common interfaces.

Automatic ejection
Wrongly coated sheets can optionally be automatically sorted out of the production.

To ensure that you receive 100 % on-line quality control, we will be happy to provide you with a quotation. We look forward to receiving your non-binding enquiry.

The BBM 1000 is the only off-line measuring device for measuring:

– blank strip width and bow cut for sheet metal strip
– height, length and angle for sheet metal blanks

New the device has wireless data transmission. The measurements are triggered by a foot pedal so that the sheet to be measured can be fixed with both hands.

Even in factories with overpressure ventilation to protect against contamination, roller cutters are still ground on the slitter. This produces grinding dust which contains cobalt and tungsten carbide and can contaminate the slitter / blank / can.

„Off-line” grinding offers further advantages over conventional grinding in addition to zero contamination. For example a higher line efficiency, maximum operator safety, optimized grinding quality by regrinding without production pressure and a longer service life of the roller cutters as no contamination by carbide grinding dust occurs.

With an optional safety package including risk analysis, the Roller Cutter Grinding Table also meets the highest safety requirements.

Hygienic off-line grinding with the CGB is essential, especially in the production of cans for food, in order to meet the requirements of FSSC 2200 or the HACCP system!
