High Speed Single Knife Cutting. The A400 is Appletons Fastest Single
 Knife Re-Cutter, running up to 2 times faster than the A301 
Automatic. Better on heavier wall thickness due to hydraulics.

This unit serves to rapidly cut batches of fiber cores of a given 
length with minimum operator labor And to cut heat sensitive and /or 
thick wallplastic tubes & tapes.

The A400 provides you with:

- Faster cutting - the result of an improved hydraulic
system coupled with our fixed knife.

- Clean, polished, cuts - the Appleton fixed knife slices
rather than saws or scores for a cleaner, faster cut.

- Precise control- new valving results in a wider range of
operator adjustment offeed and cutting rates for optimal
performance.

- Plastic cutting - with proper cutting tools the A400 can
cut a variety of plastics.

- Expandability - theA400 is PLC equipped, making it ready
for automation options like the auto-indexing knife or
automated parent and cut core handling systems - freeing
your operators for other tasks.

- Quick diameter changes - Five minutes for a mandrel
change, or less than one minute with our patented Instant
Diameter Change (IDC) mandrel system.

- Energy Savings - the A400 has a timer that shuts down the
cutter if it has not been used for an operator settable
interval. This saves wear and tear on the cutter.

- Improved safety - the cutter is running only when it is in
service, the knife is well guarded.

- Service prompt - the A400 prompts the operator when it is
time to service the hydraulic filter.
