Baumann BFS-R
(4 and 5 buffer-spaces)
The gripper transport system BFS-R, more commonly known as the "Curved Gripper System", offers the most efficient way to feed a cutter via the rear table. The jogged ream is transported from the front side of the cutter, from a BASA, an automatic jogger or an automatic loader towards the cutter's rear-table over an angle of 90°. As the cutter is cutting the ream, the BFS-R is filling the buffer positions. This allows the cutter operator to continuously cut.
Available variants
- BFS-R H for rear-table feeding with 4 buffer-spaces
- BFS-R HV for front- and rear-table feeding with 5 buffer-spaces
- BFS-R can be combined with Automatic cutting and Automatic jogging (BASA)
Advantages
- Large number of buffer-spaces, requiring very little space
- Thanks to the very high speed of the gripper transport, the reams are transported towards the cutter in a very short time
- The speed can be adjusted to suit the product
- The clamping force of the grippers is infinitely variable, no risk of marking the sheets
- Space-saving construction with short ways between jogger and cutter
- The jogged reams can be transported directly towards the cutter without any intermediate stops
