Tissue Manufacturer Improves Cut Quality with Mario Cotta “Gold” Series
Double E has worked closely with many customers
over the years regarding solutions to slitting dilemmas. Recently a
customer in the tissue industry came to Double E looking to upgrade from
the tried and true Mario Cotter PPS model to a newer knife holder. The
customer was able to get many years of service from the PPS but dust was
starting to build up due to the excessive cant angle on the holders and
worn out multi‐groove anvils. Another problem was that the holders were
located inside their Fabio Prerini Slitter/Rewinder machine with very
limited access and they needed a holder that provided easier blade changes.
Double E introduced the customer to the "Gold" series knife holder by
Mario Cotta.
The production manager agreed to purchase a Gold series holder for a
brief trial period. Since the customer was upgrading to a newer Mario
Cotta device, the drop‐in replacement was effortless. The
production manager was intrigued by the knife holder's mounting
flexibility and once the production line started using the device, he
soon realized the benefits of the error‐free cant angle adjustment and
the blade guard safety feature. The line operators found it easier than
ever before to replace blades…because the simple cartridge system allows
them to pull one out and replace it without tools.
The production manager was so pleased with the "Gold" series knife
holder that he immediately outfitted his entire production line with
"Gold" series knife holders and multi‐groove anvils. These Mario
Cotta holders save time, yield unparalleled cut quality, and alleviate
the dust issue. He also has the peace of mind of knowing that parts
availability and product support are never a problem with Mario Cotta.
