Summary

FOX TrimAway Trim & Matrix removal

FOX TrimAway systems stand out for their unique and innovative use of regenerative blowers to create a powerful motivating airstream. The core of the system is FOX TrimAway's exclusive venturi which converts the blower’s motivating airflow into high-velocity suction at the intake and pressure at the discharge. The FOX system yields exceptional performance while still yielding significant energy savings compared to other trim removal systems. FOX TrimAway systems are also available in portable configurations, with or without our TrimAX choppers. Our matrix removal solutions eliminate the need for matrix rewinding, streamlining your production process. FOX TrimAway systems provide a reliable, efficient solution that can be custom tailed to your specific needs.

FOX TrimAway systems deliver a clean, efficient, and versatile way to remove trim and matrix material for a wide range of converting operations. Fox TrimAway systems can be used to remove trim from paper, film, foil, textile, or nonwoven product as well as matrix materials. Designed to be installed quickly and easily, Fox TrimAway systems can be added to existing systems with limited downtime.

At the heart of every system, FOX TrimAway features and exclusive venturi which harnesses the blower’s airflow to generate powerful suction and discharge pressure for efficient trim removal without the need of moving part or compressed air. This feature provides a more energy efficient system that is quieter and requires minimal maintenance. Productions benefit from long-term savings, cleaner, and safer environments for their operations.


Features & Benefits:



The Venturi Principle

FOX TrimAway systems use high-efficiency regenerative blowers to create a powerful motive airstream. This airflow is directed into the side of the venturi, where it makes a precise, high-speed turn through an adjustable gap in the venturi. This movement generates strong suction at the venturi intake. Each system is factory-tested and tuned for maximum performance, but the adjustable gap allows for suction adjustments to be made in the field as needed.

Waste is drawn into the venturi’s suction inlet and travels in a straight, unobstructed path. Because the trim never passes through moving parts or fan blades, it remains continuous and intact, eliminating the need for chopping and minimizing wear and maintenance. Waste can be conveyed over short or long distances with a powerful stream of air to a waste collection point.

FOX TrimAway Matrix Conveying Systems

In traditional operations, label and die-cut matrix waste is collected by rewinding it onto a scrap roll. This often leads to unnecessary downtime and inefficiency due to frequent roll changes. This also requires maintaining proper tension on larger rolls to reduce the risk of matrix breaks. The FOX TrimAway Matrix Conveying System eliminated the need to run wider and more costly webs along with the need to use cardboard cores in the rewinding process.

  • Eliminates the need for rewinding matrix
  • Matrix remains in its typical threading pattern to be fed into the suction side of the venturi – no need to chop the matrix
  • Fast and easy setup – FOX TrimAway venturi mounts directly to existing matrix rewinds shafts, blower can be mounted to the floor or machine frame, and flexible, semi-ridged duct work all work together for easy integration and provide an ease of routing to collection
  • Zero machine stops to remove full matrix rolls
  • Easy recycling without a cardboard core
  • Elimination of web breaks with an adjustable and constant vacuum level – great for narrower webs
  • PTFE lined components and plasma coated choppers are available – matrix won't adhere to the internal surfaces and do not require messy oil injection systems
  • Available with 5HP to 20HP blowers and two different venturi sizes – up 22" wide matrix, up to 700 FPM may be handled
  • Portable configurations available


Typical Applications Include:

  • Paper, label stock, tag stock, foils, films
  • Label presses and die cutters
  • Adhesive and non-adhesive matrix
  • Narrow to widths up to 22"
  • Applications where speeds up to 700 feet per minute needed
