Specifications: MTM 4000 Series Trimming System |
||
| General Purpose of the MTM 4000 Series Trimming System | Provide trouble free deflashing of most containers. Container sizes arte listed below. | Provide complete deflash finishing for pre-finished calibrated neck containers. Provide complete deflashing and or guillotine in either single or dual neck application for downstream finishing |
| PLC Controls | Full program and documentation supplied with each system. Allen Bradley Micrologix standard, other upon request. | Controls all functions of the trimmer from index rates, tooling platen control and infeed screws. |
| Operator Interface for Control Functions w/ Fault Messaging | Monochrome Touch Screen can be moved to various locations while trimmer is running. Color Touch Screen optional. | |
| Bottle Per Minute | Up to 120 bpm* | |
