New overlapping technology for Folio Sheeters: Marking-free at high production speeds

New overlapping technology for Folio Sheeters: Marking-free at high production speeds Duesseldorf / Neuffen. bielomatik Leuze GmbH + Co. KG exposes on its drupa booth the new developed and patented overlapping unit „SynchroOverlap“. This technology underlies a completely friction-free active principle that eliminates stopper markings during braking of the sheets even at high sensitive material surfaces and highest production speeds.

The main problem of today´s Folio Sheeters in the area of sheet flow are history. In addition the general material flow will be significantly improved, especially for low grammage materials with little stiffness by force application within the rear part of the sheet to reduce its speed, thus using its own kinetic energy to stretch the sheet. Hereby the creation of a wave formation, as it is often the case within traditional overlapping technologies by force application at the sheet front edge, will be avoided and the production speed can be considerably increased. Furthermore the sheets will be decelerated across the complete machine width in a stable and uniform manner, causing an ideal rectangular aligned overlapped sheet flow, resulting in an improved pile quality.

Through the use of the SynchroOverlap the mechanically given speed potentials of the sheeters can be utilized much better, therefore significantly increasing the productivity of the machines. Due to the mere mechanical working principle the overlapping is independent from changing outer influences and variations of material characteristics. The SynchroOverlap is a modular and autarkic group which can be perfectly used for new installations as well as for the modernization of existing Folio Sheeters of all types.

Uwe Hartmann, Head of Service at bielomatik, reports: “ In the past two years we already upgraded seven of these modules at different European paper mills.
Thereby the productivity in the paper finishing has been heavily increased,
partly up to over 20 percent.

A SynchroOverlap module can be visited at bielomatik´s drupa exhibition booth.

bielomatik P 35-49 PLUS: New mark of excellence in production of wire comb and spiral products

bielomatik P 35-49 PLUS: New mark of excellence in production of wire comb and spiral products Duesseldorf / Neuffen. bielomatik will present the new generation of its wire comb and spiral binding line P 35-49 PLUS on drupa. With significantly reduced changeover times
and 33 % higher capacity, the line sets new benchmarks in productivity.

Core unit of the machine is the 5-up punching and cutting unit which was completely redesigned. It is now equipped with a newly engineered cartridge system allowing to adjust the new format outside the machine. These pre-set units can then be exchanged easily in case of size changes. Together with a general redesign of numerous other working units, the changeover times of this line have now been reduced by up to 40 %. The new punching and cutting unit can also be retrofitted
for existing machines.

On drupa, the machine will be demonstrated with wire comb binding. The PLUS version of this well-proven product line can optionally also be equipped with a spiral binding unit, even later on. On A4 size, the line reaches now 50 % higher capacity: again a new benchmark with an output of 90 products per minute.

Dirk Voessing, Managing Director of bielomatik and responsible for the paper division: “Almost all major manufacturers of spiral and wire comb products around the globe rely on high-speed lines from bielomatik. Even highly automated producers in the industrialized countries of Europe or North America are facing a loss in efficiency of up to 40 %. At the same time, the production batches are getting smaller as the products are becoming more versatile and individual. With the PLUS version of our P 35-49, the manufacturers will be well equipped to meet the market requirements
of the future in regard of flexibility and efficiency.”

The machine can be seen on drupa three times daily live in production.

New Flexibility in Paper Converting: Innovations from bielomatik at drupa 2012

New Flexibility in Paper Converting: Innovations from bielomatik at drupa 2012 Duesseldorf / Neuffen. At the stand from bielomatik visitors can experience a selection of the latest paper processing machines and an RFID label production unit live. Flexibility isn't just bielomatik's drupa motto, rather it is now the focus of the entire paper and converting industry: Smaller order batches require shorter changeover times and variable use of the machinery for the production of the most varied orders.

The new cross cutter CFS 105 is a true "all-rounder" that can not only cut diverse sizes and grammages without leaving marks, but also above all the most varied materials: Carton, film and naturally also coated and uncoated paper. Also preprinted rolls can be cut according to printing register. The new development from bielomatik, which is based on decades of experience in the cross cutter area, can be integrated into current ERP and workflow management systems. With its extremely compact design in the "roll to sheets" area, it should appeal to print shops, paper mills and paper trading companies as well as the packaging industry.

The innovations in Düsseldorf also include the multi-layer laminating machine SpeedLiner T-165 for Smart labels. On the compact RFID production unit that can be modularly expanded, labels for textiles, so-called "hang tags" will be produced at the stand with which a "permanent inventory" will be simulated on-site. The reliable reject function for defective transponders, the "bad inlay removal", ensures perfect product quality. The SpeedLiner also offers a controled hot melt application in addition to a new ticket delivery unit. The new optional fold delivery enables a high degree of size flexibility.

The flagship for the fully automatic production of spiral and wire comb-bound products, the P 35-49 Plus, can also be seen in operation at the drupa. Thanks to the 2-up binding drum, a speed increased by 33 % is possible in the wire comb binding (80 instead of 60 cycles). With the new cartridge system for the punching and cutting unit as well as electronic setting of cut-off lenghts and sheet counts, the size changing times are reduced by almost the half. Flexibility with maximum efficiency is currently essential for future-oriented machine equipment.

For customers entering into professional exercise book production, bielomatik developed the P 24-90. The expandable system at a particularly attractive price/performance ratio is convincing thanks to its reliable performance and high product quality. The simple operation and maintenance of the exercise book line P 24-90 enables use above all in newly developing markets.

bielomatik Compact Folio Sheeter CFS 105: A brand-new and extremely compact overall size in the area reel to sheet

bielomatik Compact Folio Sheeter CFS 105: A brand-new and extremely compact overall size in the area reel to sheet Duesseldorf / Neuffen. bielomatik present the completely new designed „Compact Folio Sheeter“ CFS 105 at drupa. The CFS 105 stands out with its innovative technology and the extreme compact design. Due to the new Cross-Cutter, bielomatik set standards in the fields of operator convenience and flexibility.

All experience and knowledge of decades in mechanical engineering in paper converting have been integrated into the new machine design. The result is a patented overlapping
and piling system with the VACUSTOP®-Technology. The new air concept, which combines vacuum and hover techniques, guarantees a mark free delivery of each sheet for various materials e.g. fine and sensitive paper, board and foil.

For the cutting from a printed reel, the CFS 105 can be provided with a register package. Therefore it is an interesting alternative for the offline cutting in the packaging industry. Within the cooperation with the Danish company TRESU, an inline solution with a flexo printing machine is already intended.

Due to its small floor space requirement of 3 x 6 meter, the CFS 105 can be integrated easily into existing production environment. The compact design is based on the new delivery device, whereby the overlapping and transportation area can be kept extremely short. When cutting very long sheets, the beginning of the paper web is already located in the delivery area before the sheet has been cut. The maximum cutting length is 1200 mm with a maximum working web width of 1050 mm and cutting tolerances of +/- 0,3 mm Millimeter.

As a matter of course, the CFS 105 can be easily integrated and interactively connected to the existing ERP- Workflow-Management systems. The automatically process control and the short change over time lead to a high overall machine efficiency.

The paper and printing industry suffer under great cost and competition pressure due to the ongoing decreasing lot sizes as well as the increasing level of individualization. Therefore Mr. Dirk Voessing, General Manager of bielomatik paper division: “Our highly automated ‘compact allrounder’ offers the chance to react flexible on the future market demands of the converting industry.”

At drupa you can see the CFS 105 “live in production” 3 times a day. The monitoring of the CFS 105 via Smart-Phone will be also shown live at the booth A 6
in Hall 11.
