Highlights of the Questec RQS-V
- Speed: at 400 m/min. (1300 ft/min.), sheets are reliably cut and placed on the stack

- Precision: proven cross cutting technology with a dynamic drive allows for a clean, accurate cut with a cutting tolerance of ± 0,15 mm/1000 mm
- Quality: perfect stacking pattern due to gentle, safe pulling of the sheets onto the stack
- Compact & ergonomic: No platform and very small footprint of the main machine of less than 3 m (10 ft), thus well laid out and easy and safe to operate
- Reliable handling: thanks to «Air-Stream» the material is always safely transported, independent of web curvature, statics or surface condition
- Fast set-up times: extremely short start-up ramps thanks to fewer setting points plus job memory
- Virtually maintenance-free: a sheet transport without belts or rollers eliminates wear
Applications:
- Precision sheeting for manufacturers and converters of lightweight papers or plastic films, including materials with sensitive surfaces, e.g. in-mould labels, wet glue labels, pharmaceutical information leaflets or scratch-sensitive plastic films
