Maxcess launches Tidland SmartSlit automated system

Maxcess launched the Tidland SmartSlit automated slitting system. Tidland SmartSlit ensures automatic and precise placement of slitting blades, eliminating the need for manual adjustments and reducing set up time.

'SmartSlit is ideal for tag and label producers and narrow web converters looking to automate manual finishing operations or add finishing operations to their current lines. It is a safe, versatile, user-friendly solution to slitting operations, significantly enhancing productivity and reducing operational costs,' said Richard Provencher, global product manager for Tidland Slitting and Winding. 'Our automatic machinery movement minimizes manual hand adjustment and reduces safety concerns and operator errors. Users get improved ergonomics and greater accuracy versus manual position alternatives. You can also store repeat jobs for reuse later. The best part is Tidland SmartSlit usually pays for itself in less than two years compared to manual systems on the market.'

The Tidland SmartSlit can have a maximum of 24 knives. It also has a maximum web width of 48in (1220mm), the option to run either automated or manual, removable blade cartridges and the ability to autoscan current slit position.
