FS Etiketten, nestled in the scenic Black Forest of Germany, has recently integrated an advanced cutting solution into its operations. This state-of-the-art system boasts the GR-160 cutter equipped with three knives, complemented by sandblasted pipes for enhanced performance.
Notably, the system is outfitted with a built-in flap, optimizing heating and cooling efficiency. During the summer months, it efficiently expels warm air outside. During the winter, it facilitates the return of heat back into the factory. Patrick Herrmann, the Production Manager, expresses utmost satisfaction with the successful installation!
Matho stepped up to the plate when JELD-WEN, a global leader in doors, windows, and building products, faced a challenge in their production line.
The Challenge: Clogged Extraction Fan
The extraction fan of JELD-WEN's Door Filling Machine was clogging 1-2 times a month due to incompletely cut aluminum foil trim. Cleaning took approximately 30 minutes per fault, causing downtime and inefficiencies.
The Matho Solution: Precision Cutting Module
Matho introduced a cutting module on the extraction line above the Door Filling Machine. This innovative solution ensures that only finely cut pieces pass through the extraction line, preventing clogs and significantly reducing downtime.
Results: Efficient Production, Reduced Downtime
JELD-WEN now experiences improved operational efficiency with the Matho solution. The installation has not only addressed the clogging issue but has also streamlined the production process.
