4. PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The fixture described in this manual is a pneumatic cutting unit model FP120DT which can be
assembled on automatic machines (e.g. spreaders, computerized cutting). FP120DT can operate
continuously and it can cut at various heights by means of multiple installation. Thanks to the
presence of a double hard metal counterblade and of a double air inlet, FP120DT is able to cut
in both the directions, saving so a stroke and therefore time in the cross-cut processes. Thanks
to the presence of a 645W pneumatic motor, FP120DT is able to cut difficult materials with
thickness up to 50 mm. It is particularly suitable for technical fabrics and composite materials.
By cutting with the blade and the counterblade always in contact and thanks to the steel upper
quality of the blade supplied, FP120DT guarantees the clean separation without frayings of the
two borders of the cut material. One special feature of cutting unit FP120DT is its ability to
sharpen the blade in each moment without disassembling it by means of a emery grinding wheel
mounted on the cutting unit head. After carrying out this operation, it is possible to start cutting
again. The pneumatic cutting unit is provided with a threaded connection suitable for most of the
air pipelines. A high power motor, perfectly balanced, with a high number of revolutions and
totally free of maintenance, reduces the vibrations to the minimum, thus making the cutting unit
comply with European Directive No. 2002/44/EC concerning the risks deriving from mechanical
vibrations. The cutting unit can be used also to cut damp or wet materials; therefore it is
recommended in tanneries, dyeworks, etc. The use of compressed air as source of energy allows
working continuously without problems of heating or motor overload. The mechanical parts are
made up of high quality steel, bronze and aluminium and require a lubrication after many working
hours.
