Production / Working Process
Step 1: Cap / Strip Loading – Material fed to cutting station
Step 2: Positioning – Precision guide aligns cut location
Step 3: Blade Engagement – Cutting tool engages workpiece
Step 4: Shearing Action – Blade shears through material cleanly
Step 5: Cut Completion – Full separation achieved
Step 6: Blade Retraction – Cutting tool returns to home position
Step 7: Part Separation – Cut parts separated from skeleton
Step 8: Waste Removal – Scrap material automatically removed
Step 9: Next Cycle – Indexing for next cut position
Application Scenarios
• Tamper-evident score cutting
• Cap edge trimming and deflashing
• Side wall slotting and piercing
• Strip separation into individual caps
• Special feature cutting operations
Case Study
■ Customer Background
A tamper-evident cap manufacturer having quality issues with their score cutting process. Inconsistent scoring depth was causing either hard-to-open caps or premature band breakage during shipping.
■ Project Challenge
• Score depth variation causing 5% product rejection
• Needed to maintain 0.12mm score depth on 0.23mm aluminum
• High speed 300 caps/min production required
• Blade life was too short with existing equipment
■ Our Solution
• Replaced old cutters with KP-CM-400 precision cutting machines
• Installed servo-controlled depth adjustment system
• Specified carbide grade scoring blades for extended life
• Integrated inline depth verification sensor
■ Result & Benefits
• Score depth variation reduced to ±0.01mm
• Product rejection from scoring issues dropped to 0.4%
• Blade life increased from 500K to 3.5 million cuts
• Production speed stable at 320 caps/min
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: What types of cutting can this machine perform?
A: It can perform rotary trimming, piercing, slotting, score cutting and blank separation operations.
Q: How do you ensure burr-free cutting?
A: Precision ground blades with proper shear angle, accurate blade alignment and optimized cutting speed all contribute to clean edges.
Q: How often do cutting blades need sharpening?
A: HSS blades need sharpening approximately every 500,000–1,000,000 cuts. Carbide blades last 3–5 times longer.
Q: Can the machine cut multiple caps at once?
A: Yes, gang cutting configuration with multiple blades can cut several caps simultaneously from wide strip material.
Q: What materials can be cut?
A: The machine handles all common cap materials including aluminum, tinplate, TFS, stainless steel and brass.
Q: Is dust extraction included?
A: Standard configuration includes chip collection tray. Dust extraction system is available as upgrade.
