The module uses conventional magnetic cylinders Tel. : 1-450-641-7900 and fast die and anvil changes. The Pellicut™ increases the lifetime of Fax : 1-450-641-7911 the die by almost 4 times. [email protected] www.eticonverting.com A perfect mark-free die-cut on such thin liner with standard magnetic die cylinders is possible by means of two major improvements: ETI Converting Equipment is a Canadian company specialized in the conception and manufacturing of producing equipment. ETI is -W anti-deflecting system dedicated to delivering the most advanced innovative technology to -Equalizer system the label industry. The W type anti-deflecting system will avoid pressure cutting Our vision is to build a bridge between the printer and the in-line variation and the die equalizer system will correct the thickness and printing equipment. inconsistency of the magnetic plate by eliminating any high spot that might touch the liner. The unit is fully servo-motorized and is We believe our vertical integration patented technologies called equipped with a cassette system allowing quick changes of the die. Cohesio and Labeline, are the solution to flexibility, innovation as well Moreover, the cutting pressure is not sensitive to heat variations in as higher profit margins. the long run and during a continuous usage.

The Pellicut™ equipment is offered in different width sizes; 330mm (13’’), 420mm (16,5’’), 520mm (20,5’’), 570mm (22,5’’) and 670mm (26,5’’), repeat range 275mm (11’’) to 915mm (36’’). The module can be integrated in-line with the Cohesio, retrofitted on an existing press or offered as stand-alone die-cutting equipment.

The ability to convert very thin liner is a great way to reduce the cost of the label. As this technology supports the Green marketing efforts THE PELLICUT of self-adhesive label printers, the Pellicut™ has been enthusiastically ETI Converting Equipment has found a solution to the requirements welcomed since its launch. of label converters in terms of die-cutting in very thin liners.

Thinner liners offer significant benefits to the converters; they re- duce material costs, cut down by half on the amount of liner wastes, lower shipping and packing costs and less down time on labeling equipment as there are more per roll. ETI has introduced a revolutionary patented die-cutting technology to the industry. This proven technology, called the Pellicut™ is especially designed for high speed application with very thin release liner. It allows converters to die cut on a PET liner that is 18 micron thick, thus reducing liner thickness and cost by up to 40%.

ETI Converting Equipment has recently obtained a US patent (US 9,782,904 B2) for this innovative die-cutting system. The heavy duty fully rotary die-cutting system can die-cut PS material at a speed of 225 m/min (750 feet/min). The Pellicut™ will die cut labels on 18 microns (.72 gage) polyester film or 30 gsm (20 lbs)
