X/Y Axis Plotter______________________________ |
 |
Lathe Slitting________________________________ |
 |
|
Used for prototypes and small batch runs, the plotter can produce fit for function parts without the need for tooling. Using a vacuum bed to secure materials, it has a working area of 1020mm x 1630mm and is driven directly from your DXF or DWG CAD files. |
From master rolls, Parafix provides exact width rolls from 0.7mm up to 1400mm. Parafix can achieve finished roll tolerances of up to +/- 0.1mm, depending on material. |
|
Rewind Slitting_______________________________ |
 |
Laminating__________________________________ |
 |
Different from lathe slitting, 'rewind slitting' allows Parafix to laminate material combinations together at the slitting stage; this provides added functionality.
With rewind slitting, Parafix can supply materials up to 1 metre wide at the exact length of roll required.
Width tolerances on rewinding can be up to +/- 0.15. |
Parafix has the capability to provide multi-laminate formats from a range of laminating equipment.
Parafix can either laminate across the whole web or in selective strips, and can then provide in either roll or sheet form. |
|
Guillotining__________________________________ |
 |
Flat-bed die cutting___________________________ |
 |
|
The Parafix range of guillotine machines produce sheeted formats that are cut to exact requirements.
Parafix uses single roll material or laminated products. |
Die cutting is at the core of Parafix's business. Parafix has an extensive range and capability of machines. Parafix provides bespoke products to meet exact requirements. Parafix makes die-cut parts from a range of flat bed, shim, engraved and die-set tooling. Parafix offers tolerances of up to +/- 0.15mm. |
|
Rotary die cutting____________________________ |
 |
Design_____________________________________ |
 |
|
The multiple stage rotary die cutting machines at Parafix are versatile:having up to four rotary cutting tools working in unison. providing parts utilising many different materials, all cut to dissimilar profiles within the same part. being servo-assisted to provide extremely accurate tolerances utilising a digital optical inspection system. |
Full CAD design facilities allow our in-house design team to create bespoke solutions based on your requirements. These drawings can then be turned into prototypes using our X/Y Axis "Harry" Plotter. |
