Engineered for seamless integration with existing converting equipment, the AZCO VPS valve placing machine offers customizable interface options to fit your setup.
KEY FEATURES
- Automatic Material Feed & Precise Valve Placement: Materials are loaded onto the unwind, and the valve is automatically indexed and positioned precisely.
- High-Accuracy Registration: Equipped with advanced registration systems to ensure accurate positioning before cutting, with verification that each valve is active.
- Heat Sealing Capability: Once cut, the valve is placed on an indexing system and securely heat-sealed onto the pouch machine.
- Plug-and-Play Installation: Self-contained system that requires only a 220V power connection and pressurized air for operation.

Requirements:
This application required precisely cutting and punching pieces of foil from a roll form.
Material: Rolls of 12” wide foil in roll form.
Our Solution:
AZCO Corp. designed and manufactured a custom cut-to-length station with an unwind and dual punch assembly to precisely cut pieces of foil from a roll form.
- The material is loaded onto the unwind.
- The unwind is a cantilevered design for quick and easy loading.
- Unit is powered by an AC variable speed motor and drive.
- Drive motor contains a constant loop of material.
- A rocker switch allows the unit to change direction for easy setup and versatility.
- From the unwind, the material travels under a rising dancer arm.
- A no product sensor will automatically shut the unit down when no product is sensed.
- Material is pulled through the dual precision punch assembly.
- Punch assemblies are mounted on a rail system allowing for assemblies to adjust the spacing.
- They are pneumatically operated and can be mounted in any orientation.
- A set of precision ground urethane drive rollers pulls the material into the cut-to-length station.
- Pressure between the rollers can be manually adjusted.
- A toggle switch allows the operator to lift the idler roller for easy setup of a new web.
- The unit includes precision ball bearings which do not require lubrication.
- Rollers are turned by an indexing motor providing high accuracy and low maintenance.
- An internal guide directs the material from the drive rollers into the knife assembly.
- Knife assembly includes D2 heat treated tool steel blades.
- A jam sensor will automatically shut the unit down when no product is sensed exiting the knife assembly indicating an internal jam.
- Sensor is mounted in the middle of the web path.
- A material flow package helps float the product through the knife assembly.
- All components are mounted on a common aluminum frame.

Requirements:
This custom sheeting system takes an extruded film, indexes and cuts the sheets to lengths in increments of up to six digits, and then feeds directly to an automated stacking station.
The extruded web first enters an accumulator which is equipped with a multitude of rollers and a dancer system to maintain proper web tension. Positioned directly after the accumulator is the FGW-1000 Cut-to-Length unit.
