Busch BL & BLS High Die Cutting Models –
Despite their identical functionality, the models differ in body size to accommodate the varying cutting dimensions. Each machine comes equipped with:
- Adjustable clamping arms (5 for BL, 6 for BLS)
- Waste slitters and holders that can be optimally positioned for precise waste management.
High Precision Equipment, Thoughtful Design –
Accessibility is improved with a sliding door, simplifying the installation of dies and waste slitters and providing dual-sided access to the cutting section. These High Die Cutters excel when producing large-sized labels, brochures, children’s booklets, credit and loyalty cards, and special material for in-mould labels (IML).
Improved Throughput Through Enhanced Feeding technology –
Our Busch Die Cutters feature an innovative light barrier system to activate the machine, ensuring precision and safety. Upon inserting the material and retracting yoor hands from the punching area, the cutting stroke is automatically initiated, stopping immediately if the light barrier is “broken” during operation.
Busch High Die Cutters and Optional Counter-Pressure Modules –
Both Busch models can be easily outfitted with a counter-pressure unit in lieu of the delivery tray, with a trolley aiding in the swift exchange and storage of the tray for non-counter-pressure tasks. This adaptation takes roughly 20 minutes, significantly diversifying the machine’s application range.
The dies are specifically crafted for counter-pressure cutting, incorporating a movable matrix to secure and stabilize the material during the hydraulic cut. This process culminates with the finished material being smoothly transitioned back into the feeding tray by a pneumatic cylinder, though it does halve the machine’s throughput.
The counter-pressure device is recommended for intricate tasks, such as die-cutting embossed paper and plastics (PP or PE foil) for in-mould labels, processing large-sized labels from challenging materials and applications requiring stringent tolerances.
