Upgrade your cutter
The heart of the shaping plant
In most cases, the cutter is the heart of the shaping process.
If the cutter functions perfectly, the customer product is manufactured with its familiar features.
A cutter is often in use for much longer than 10 years.

Cutter systems for optimizing performance
Progressive developments offer many possibilities for retrofitting existing cutter systems. Here are some key measures that can help to optimize performance:
Measurement of the clay column speed using a laser
- The measurement is made by non-contact scanning of the clay column advance.
- In this case, changes in colour, applied structures or additives have no influence on the measurement.
Cutting table
- System for quick replacement of the cutting inserts: settings are thus retained for product size changes
- Linear guiding for the cutting wire thanks to more stable guides and better encapsulated ball bushes to improve the component working life
- Wire cleaner with servo drive via planetary gearbox
- Scraping device for wire cleaning consisting of a "sandwich" element made of spring steel sheet and impact protection: universally adaptable for a wide variety of clay mixtures
- Redesign of the cutting table for better disposal of cutting waste thanks to more free space, fewer support options, etc.
Optimized wire feeding and reeling device
- To reduce wire breakages during production and plant downtimes
Slider crank table drive
- With reinforced joint heads
Travel settings table drive (radius)
- With adjustable crank
- Pushing rod no longer needs to be moved
Centralized lubrication
- For linear guides and ball joint head cutting table drive
New drive technology with SEW MOVIDRIVE C
- A size-dependent stored electronic curve is no longer required
- The curve sequences for cutting are determined automatically by the converter according to the user's specifications
- Product-dependent changes / adjustments can be easily made by the operating personnel
