In detail

Designed to work
on your floor.

Three ways to work

In continuous mode, the next pile pushes the finished pile to the delivery side. In return mode, the trimmed pile returns to the operator for unloading. Automatic mode initiates the cutting cycle when a pile is placed in the feeder clamp.

Controls that simplify setup

A flat touchscreen brings operating functions together. Inching control helps the operator check work after a size change, while the mode selector adapts the machine to the job.

A powerful knife drive

Oblique swing cutting delivers high cutting power. The heavy-duty drive uses antifriction bearings and damping elements; automatic central greasing supports the knife carrier sliding faces.

Less time between jobs

Quick-change cassettes allow the three knives to be prepared outside the machine. Interchangeable trimming base plates and quick-lock pressure plates help shorten size-setting time.
