Roller Fabric Cutting Table Models
At WP Machines, we offer different types of cutting tables: From Type-1 to Type-5. We understand that it may be difficult to distinguish attributes for each machine so we are here to help clear up any confusion! As a simple rule of thumb, the smaller the Type number, the less features it will have compared to a Type with a higher number. For example, Type-1 has the least amount of features and is manually operated while Type-5 is fully automatic and contains more features. We break this down further below Type by Type.
Type-1
The Type-1 roller fabric cutting machine perfect for those seeking individual production. Setting the size, cutting the fabric, attaching the upper tube, and mounting the lower bar is completed manually. All features of this table is done manually from the knife feed to the safety switch. Start-up or smaller companies can use the Type-1 to fulfill any production needs they may have.
Type-2
For companies that are looking for automation and larger production yield than the Type-1, the Type-2 roller fabric cutting machine would be best. Type-2 improves productivity with an automatic knife feed and it the machine can be expanded to further increase production capacity. Another automated feature is that the Type-2 has an automatic clamp as opposed to the manual/gravity clamp that the Type-1 has.
Type-3
The Type-3 roller fabric cutting machine would best suit advanced production. The Type-3 offers everything else that its predecessor Type-2 does but adds more cutting features. For example, this model has an optic fiber sensor to shorten the cutting cycle. The automatic knife feed speed is also adjustable. The Type-3's safety features include foot operated safety switch, optical load barriers, and a start lock. The Type-3 works best for those in need of more automation and features.
Type-4
Large unit and serial production goals can be met by using the Type-4 roller fabric cutting machine. With the same benefits as the Type-3, plus more, the Type-4 is one of the premiere cutting tables available. This table automatically sets fabric and puts fabric aside while having anti-collision gauge movement detector for added safety. The machine can be operated with full automation with the correct programming. Whether a growing or established company is in need of a new fabric cutting machine, the Type-4 will accomplish any potential needs.
Type-5
The most advanced cutting table is the Type-5 roller fabric cutting machine. Type-5 machine boasts new technology and design allowing for full automation and ideal for mass production of roller shades. New technology and design in the Type-5 enables the fastest automatic cutting process. The 4x Ultransonic knife allows the Type-5 to be one of the fastest, if not the fastest, cutting machine. If you are a larger company looking to take production to a whole new level, the Type-5 fits the bill.
What machine should I get?
This is a complex question to answer for anyone looking to get a new cutting table. The more features a machine has, the more expensive it will be. One will have to analyze, his or her company's needs and determine which machine will be the correct fit. Production capacity/potential and cost-effectiveness will be some of the items a potential purchaser will have to think about.
