ProJet’s Tail & Deckle Cutter has the following features:

  • Automated trim removal before the couch and size press
  •  Eliminates changing deckle widths of suction and press rolls
  •  Substantial savings in drying energy possible if trim is removed at the wet-end instead of after the reel

This leads to the following benefits:

  • Adjusting the paper width to cross directional shrink => Minimum paper loss at pope roller
  • Parameter feedback: “End of production run” or “All parameters ready to go for new production run” => Unproductive time between production runs is minimized.
  • Setting the Tail width => Quickest possible adjustments.
  • Choosing the position of the Tail => Best position of the press rolls or press felts
  • Choice for dual speed => Optimal speed for “Go to full width” and thus minimizing the risk for sheet breaks.
  • => Highest possible speed at “Cut off” and thus reducing scrap to a minimum.
  • Remote control => Operating personnel does not need to wait at the forming section during tail transfer => reduction of labor
