AUTOMATED EDGE TRIM INCREASES SAFETY AND PRODUCTIVITY
 
Camas, WA, May 8, 2002 Tidland, the world leader in slitting and winding technology, introduces an automated version of their popular Edge Trim slitting unit for finishing and converting applications.

Tidland's Automated Edge Trim system provides exact repositioning of knives, simultaneously and bi-directionally using touch screen controls. Increased productivity and positioning accuracy allow for exceptionally short payback periods and enhanced product quality. Required web widths can now be entered numerically away from the web, increasing operator safety.

Changes to knifeholder position as small as 1/8 to 1/16 can be made in ratio to the movement of the web, while the press is in motion, avoiding costly re-starts and wasted materials. High quality construction and a robust design ensure reliability in tough mill environments. Retrofit packages are easily installed on existing Edge Trim systems.

Tidland Corporation is the industry leader in slitting and winding equipment for the pulp and paper converting industry. Established in 1951 with the invention of the air shaft, Tidland has demonstrated over 50 years of continuous improvement while delivering consistent new product designs to the market. Tidland provides the highest quality slitting and winding equipment available.

Tidland is a company of Maxcess International, along with Fife Corporation (guiding and inspection equipment) and MAGPOWR tension controls. Together, Fife, MAGPOWR and Tidland are able to apply over 130 years combined industry experience and a large application base to provide a unique perspective of the entire process line.
