Paper Trim Extraction / Waste Extraction

Problems & Considerations

Most high speed converting and print finishing machinery continuously produces low-density solid waste.

To ensure maximum output and maintain a clean unobstructed work area, the immediate removal of this waste at source is an essential requirement.

Waste management is a major consideration of the production industry world-wide, not only in relation to its value as a reclaimed material, but also with regard to environmental and Health & Safety issues.

The Answer?

Kee’s Specialist team of Engineers; manufacture and install Paper Trim Extraction Systems/Waste Extraction Systems that are specifically designed to meet our Customers Needs.

Components

All the components of a KEE paper trim extraction system are designed and built in the UK using specially selected materials and can include:

Custom designed extraction hoods
Heavy gauge ductwork with long radius conveying bends
Chopping fans to provide motive air and waste size reduction
Static screen and rotary waste separators
Rotary valves
Trim cutters
Dust filters (reverse jet, reverse flow and mechanical shake options)
Alarm sensors
Baling presses and compactors
Warm air return systems.

Applications

Printing (guillotines, trimmers, folders and binders etc.)
Converting (die-cutters, printer slotters, auto-platens etc.)
Corrugating (corrugators, slitters, converting machines etc.)
Paper mills (High speed slitters & winders)
Envelope manufacture.

Benefits
