Sweden-based Trafikreflexer AB needed to improve and automate its cutting process of reflective film from roll to sheets in order to increase the daily production of road signs. Thanks to the automatic XY cutter Miura, the company can save a large amount of time and have more than doubled its capacity.
‘Previously, it took about 15 minutes to prepare and cut a roll into sheets, with our Miura it takes about 5-7 minutes (depending on the length of the sheet),’ said Stephan Nermfors of Trafikreflexer AB. ‘It has saved a lot of time, and has been a good investment for us. We have cut about 140,000 pieces with this machine, and there has never been a problem.’
The machine is equipped with an air blowing system to simplify the sheets coming out on to the collecting table. ‘Thanks to Flexa we were able to get our Miura custom made with an air blowing system, which makes it much easier when we cut our reflective materials,’ said Nermfors.
