Maxcess adds Tidland Cyclone high-speed centering shaft

Maxcess has launched the Tidland Cyclone high-speed centering shaft, which enables faster production through its ability to center and grip cores concentrically about the shaft.

Tidland Cyclone is designed to minimize downtime both during roll changes and scheduled maintenance

The Tidland Cyclone series is designed to minimize downtime both during roll changes and scheduled maintenance, with a single-circuit air system and bladders that can be replaced in less than five minutes. The Tidland Cyclone series delivers industry-leading torque capability, Maxcess has claimed, and according to Kristen McPherson, global product manager for Tidland, 'was designed from the ground up to deliver the features our customers need most: speed, reliability, ease of use and timely delivery.

‘This new high-speed centering shaft dramatically increases throughput by minimizing roll loping and machine vibration. When the shaft runs smoother, it can run much faster and induce less wear and tear on the machine itself.’

Tidland Cyclone is the latest product launch from Maxcess, following that of the Magpowr Spyder Plus S1 controller and Thin Load Cell, reported here, and the Fife D-MAX Enhanced web guide controller, reported here.
