The POLAR CuttingSystem PACE 300 automates finishing processes of non-printed or prepared materials. The word "PACE" stands for "Polar Automation for Cutting Efficiency" and includes the following automation components: •Gripper loading system POLAR Autotrans for loading the High-Speed cutter via the rear-table •Turning gripper POLAR Autoturn automatically rotates undivided reams in the High-Speed cutter •Autotrim for automatic waste removal The Workflow: Transomat TR 3 BL automatically pulls the material being cut from the stack onto the Transomat pallet and the Autotrans gripper-loading system takes it and transports it to the high-speed cutter rear table. The Autoturn turning gripper with automatic aligning gauge is the centre of the PACE cutting system. The gripper system turns the ream on the rear table, either 90 or 180 degrees, to the right or left-hand side. Then an automatic gauge positions the ream. The cut is released automatically. In this way, undivided reams can be cut without any operator. If further cuts are needed, the operator continues the cutting job and turns the individual products manually. A POLAR Autotrim high-speed cutter, which automatically removes the cutting waste, is a precondition for this highly automated PACE cutting system. The unloading Transomat makes it much easier to unload the high-speed cutter. This optimizes the entire workflow. The intermediate and final products are manually pushed onto the Transomat transport pallet. In automatic cycles, they are precisely stacked on the pallet.
