BZM-I

BZM-I

All-automatic vertical cutting machine for the cutting-off of long blocks and for the trimming, cutting or dividing of short blocks

BZM-I block trimming machine

Little space requirement of the machine as the cutting unit is fixed parallel to the conveyor, least space requirement of all comparable machines

  • The turning of the knife by 90° by means of pneumatic knife turning devices allows longitudinal and cross cuts in every required position.
  • Four different work modes for the trimming of short blocks:1. only at the front and at the rear2. all four sides3. all four sides + centre cuts 4. dividing the block into up to three further single blocks and individual rectangular cuts
  • Cutting-off function for long blocks at the BZM-I:-cutting-off a short block of a maximum length of 3050 mm -separating the short block from the long block -cutting/trimming of the short block at all sides, preparation for its subsequent processing
  • Exact and fast realisation of various rectangular cuts
  • Efficient utilisation of the material with minimum waste
  • High efficiency due to a band knife either toothed or ground at both sides which cuts in forward and backward motion
  • Two infinitely variable synchronized transport conveyors can seperately move the previously divided blocks and remove them in lengthwise direction
  • Employment of the machine as stand-alone version as well as integrated in cutting lines due to the all-automatic mode of operation
  • The BZM-I machine is an important connectinn link between rack storage and production process

Foundation Plan



 

Waste determination

  • Measuring device which calculates the percentage of the remaining waste after the block trimming process by means of the PLC control

Alignment station

  • Alignment station for the exact positioning of the block
  • Useful for the automatic charging of the vertical cutting machine

Conveyors

  • Prevention of machine down times
  • Equipment with loading and unloading conveyors of various lengths for the converting of short blocks in automatic mode
  • Positioning of the belts upstream and downstream of the machine

Knife gap covering

  • The knife gap covering prevents the pinching or even the ripping of particularly soft foams or non-woven fabrics in the knife gap
  • Realised in the form of a cover for the toothed belt
  • Recommended for the converting of particularly soft foams or non-woven materials

Grinding unit

  • Grinding unit for ground knives
  • Optional equipment of the machine with ground knives combined with the motor-driven grinding unit
  • Optical knife grinding control for a better surveillance of the knife grinding process and for achieving of an optimal cutting appearance
  • Possibility of equipping the machine with a grinding dust extraction unit for extracting the grinding dust

Adjustable knife guide

  • The upper knife guide serves as knife protection in the unused cutting area and enhances the knife guiding.
  • Reduction of the non-guided knife length for a better fixation of the knife, particularly when cutting smaller blocks or sheets
  • Optimizes the cutting quality and enables the utilization of full cutting speed
