Sheeters
Sheeter dual motor drive retrofits packages
The sheeter retrofit package is an ideal solution to the high cost of purchasing a new sheeter. Don’t let poor sheet length accuracy or slower line speeds be reasons to spend large sums of money on new equipment. Older sheeters can be upgraded to enhance the machine’s performance and the quality of the material being sheeted. The proven dual motor drive retrofit packages will increase reliability, production and profit in a short period of time.

We currently offer two platforms that can precisely control your stationary bed knife or dual rotary knife sheeter. The Allen Bradley RS Logix and the Control Techniques Rotary Knife solution. The control system below was retro-fitted to a Langston-Maxson dual rotary knife sheeter with a 40 HP draw & 150HP direct drive knife.
Reasons to upgrade:
- Sheet length variation
o Common mechanical drive shaft creates backlash between knife cylinder and draw roll.
o Poor drive performance through acceleration & deceleration.
- Ac drives technology decreases required maintenance (DC Brushes).
- Cost effective (return on investment in a short period of time).
Benefits:
- Improved sheet length accuracy (+/- 0.020”).
- Less waste (no guillotine trimming needed).
- Increased line speeds (machines designed maximum speed).
- Ease of set up (no mechanical gear changes or piv’s)
- Operator friendly
Options:
- Automatic sheet squaring.
- Cut to registration mark.
- High & low speed tapes control.
- Tension systems.
RT Engineering is a control system integrator who specializes in a variety of PLC & motion based applications for industrial machinery. Although we do custom engineering and manufacturing applications our specialties include web handling, sheeting, textile, winders and high volume food equipment. In addition, we are representatives and distributors for Rockwell Automation, Emerson Control Techniques drives, Rex Transformers, Patlite and Sew Eurodrive and other industrial products. We also provide 24 hour service 7 days a week.
