Roll-forming lines

Cut-to-length Unit

Servo-controlled line module that cuts formed profile or sheet to the approved length. Equipment is configured as part of line engineering around the target profile, material and production flow.

Cut-to-length Unit

Application engineering

Configured around your product and line.

Operating principle

The length of the profile or sheet arriving from the line is measured by encoder, and the servo-controlled cutting unit is triggered when the target length is reached. Cutting runs either in stop-and-cut mode or as a flying cut, where the unit travels with the material during the cut; a die matched to the profile parts the cross-section without deformation.

Integration

It connects to line control as the cutting station of the roll-forming line, with length and quantity recipes managed from the line head.

Options follow the application

  • Stop-and-cut or flying-cut operating scenario
  • Cutting die dedicated to the profile cross-section
  • Encoder-based length measurement package
