Alternative for breaking ceramic razorblades
Breakage of zirconia ceramic razorblade during the slitting process is to be avoided at all cost. The solution may lie in the choice for blades with more resilience like Fortis or Fortis + .
Slitting Kraft Paper Packaging
Fortisblades found a solution for slitting Kraft paper with a 40 µm thickness, all while maintaining the more simple free cut like that of a razorblade. The result: we realise a 30 times longer lifespan without web breakage with the Fortius TC blades.
Keep it cool with Fortisblades! Avoid "edge burn" when slitting stretch film
Most manufacturers of stretch film will be familiar with “edge burn”. Our Fortisblades team knows how to ‘keep it cool’ with the right blade concept and can help manufacturers to reduce edge burn.
Slitting in TTR film
TTR stands for 'Thermal Tranfer Ribbons' and are widely used in label printers. These ink ribbons are cut from a thermal-transfer ink mother film. Many colours and in general 3 qualities are available: wax, wax resin and resin.
Slitting in recycled plastic film
The plastic film processing industry participates in the circular economy to reduce the environmental foot print. Many new film products are produced with substantial content of recycled plastics.
Secure your high quality standards in agricultural films
Well engineered agricultural mulch films and bale wrapping stretch films have become increasingly important. Fierce competition in these films market has led to stronger films in terms of mechanical performance and lifetime. All efforts to produce excellent films can be lost due to poor slitting (high reels, breaking of the web and jagged edges).
Excessive wear of blades due to mineral TiO2
Is the excessive wear of blades due to mineral TiO2 familiar to you?
Long lasting sharpness of a razorblade could have saved this roll
We are daily challenged by the innovations and problems in the film and foil industry to develop a cutting tool that corresponds to the requested properties of the film, to highest outputs and lowest manufacturing costs.
FORTIUS + : a new FORTIUS development
For slitting very abrasive and though web material, the FORTIUS tungsten carbide blade might be the right choice for optimal results.
In the continuous search to make the best even better, Fortisblades developed the Fortius + .
