Blade overlap, usually between 0.5 to 1.5 mm, depends on material type. Thanks to depth adjustment, it is possible to accurately set the blade stroke and find the correct overlap (penetration).

With Helios knifeholders it is possible to find the correct cant angle. It means that without any extra tool the operator can set it according to material typology.

BENEFITS:

• Reduce the contact surface between top and bottom knife.
• Better cutting quality
• Increase blade lifetime
• Minimized dust generation

With our pneumatic regulation version (J2B J3B) it is possible to obtain the correct side force pressure. The pressure gauge mounted on the knife holder displays the side load force being applied to the bottom knife. The operator can then adjust the side load pressure to the minimum required to cut the material which will prolong the knife life.

With same knife holder it is possible to slit both with shear or razor cut, changing only the head.
It is the ideal solution where material range is large, giving the machine the capability to slit lightweight films up to paper and laminates.
