<strong>Flying</strong> <strong>shear</strong><br />

Integrate easy flying <strong>shear</strong> function in your packaging machine<br />

It's a procedure to cut and (usually) seal film with its product inside<br />

continuously without stop the product or the film.<br />

Benefits<br />

Tested validated documented<br />

• A complete user guide gives all the details required<br />

for using, installing the function with confidence<br />

Machine performance /<br />

Performance solution<br />

• Based on CAM profile solution allowing<br />

mechanical stress reduction<br />

• Smooth acceleration<br />

• Fast products change<br />

• Excellent association drive / motion controller<br />

Machine performance /<br />

Flexible solution<br />

• Change length to cut without stopping<br />

the machine<br />

• Easy to adapt to different type of machines<br />

• 3 different operating modes<br />

Time to market / Easy to<br />

implement and to configure<br />

• Visualization for commissioning and monitoring<br />

• Error reporting<br />

• Engineering units are used<br />

Total support<br />

• <strong>Schneider</strong> support<br />

• Local ADE for support and assistance


Operating principle<br />

This system of tools moving is obtained by means of<br />

a combination of translator movement (that allows to<br />

follow the film during the cutting phase) and a closing<br />

movement of the tool (that could be motorized or not).<br />

The translation of the tool is obtained by means a<br />

mechanical handle. The closing is typically pneumatic<br />

or obtained using brushless or asynchronous<br />

motors. During the cutting phase the tool must be<br />

at the same speed of the film, but sometimes it shall<br />

able to manage an offset between the film speed and<br />

the tool, in order to obtain a stretch of the packet.<br />

Cutting device could be inserted by a mechanical or<br />

pneumatic system.<br />

Characteristics<br />

• Registration capture<br />

• Dynamic motion profile changes on the fly<br />

• Errors reporting<br />

• Engineering units are used<br />

• Fast product change<br />

• Cam profile optimization reduces<br />

the mechanical stress<br />

• The return profile is calculated to operate at the<br />

slowest speed and acceleration rate, and yet with<br />

sufficient time to achieve the next cut<br />

• Parallel and angled carriage applications are handled<br />

• 3 differents operating modes :<br />

- Cutting without touch probe and length to cut.<br />

- Cutting with touch probe and length to cut<br />

- Cutting on touch probe without length to cut<br />

• Change length to cut without stopping the machine<br />

• Add offset can be parameterized when cut is<br />

finished<br />

• Cold start and warm start.<br />

Typical<br />

applications<br />

• Vertical bagging machines<br />

• Shrinking machines<br />
