microcut® Transcend – Clamp/Cut Control System

Monica Keenan — Mon, 30 Mar 2020 18:39:10 +0000

microcut® Transcend Clamp/Cut Control System allows any flywheel cyclical paper cutting machine to be brought up to modern standards. The system is a complete clamp/cut control system that can replace an existing control system and is available as an OEM package for new machines.

(The system requires installation of a microcut PLUS WS backgauge control system for the operator interface.)

The microcut® Transcend Control System Components:

Transcend Control PCB: Controls all clamping, cutting and safety pin operation. Safety and expansion CPUs for monitoring, cross verification and full machine control.

Knife Position Monitor: Monitors and sends knife motion and position status to the control system.

Clamp Encoder Assembly (optional): Monitors clamp motion for clamp lead (knife delay). Can interface to MIS system for paper height computations.

Power panel: Interfaces the AC power components (main motor, air motor) and circuit breakers (H3 drive and DC power supplies).

Safety Curtains: The system can interface with multiple curtain options.

microcut COLOR WS® – Backgauge Control System

yashyagnik — Thu, 24 Jan 2019 14:24:48 +0000

microcut COLOR WS® is designed to automate backgauge movement on any paper cutter, regardless of brand or size. The benefits include increased productivity, greater accuracy and improved reliability.

A full-color, 8" wide format touchscreen display guides the operator, with all operations presented in an intuitive, easy-to-understand format. Set-up is fast and simple, with no complicated codes to memorize or reference. The current backgauge position is clearly displayed in inches, centimeters or millimeters, depending on operator preference.

microcut COLOR WS® moves the backgauge into correct position faster and more accurately than skilled manual operation. The confidence of computer-controlled precision translates into significant increases in productivity - often 50% and more. The system's proprietary DC drive assures mechanical repeatability of the backgauge position to ± .002 inches (.05 mm) regardless of lead screw wear

Advantages at a glance

Automatic computation and entry of fractions
Insertion or deletion of commands from existing programs
Stock eject, turnaround, loading points and job information
Infinite lay compensate mode for as many sides as requested
Non-volatile memory - no batteries required for memory support
Optional auxiliary controls for air and/or brake
Self-diagnostic electronics
For all size paper cutters
8” wide format touchscreen display
Windows® based operating system
Graphic interface
USB port for software updates
Modular, solid state circuitry
Proprietary DC motor drive system
Microprocessor-controlled, infinitely variable backgauge drive
Automatic backgauge return
Measurements in inches, centimeters, millimeters
Program entry or correction, through the keyboard with the backgauge stationary or while cutting the lift
