Roll-off units

The RollMaster is a versatile roll-off unit for precise, reliable, and ergonomic material handling. It supports heavy and large-format rolls, improves material guidance, and ensures consistently high quality in feeding and cutting—regardless of material type. 

The RollMaster is designed to feed a wide variety of roll materials onto the cutting table safely, in a controlled and reproducible manner. It is suitable for lightweight, airpermeable media as well as heavy, airtight, or rigid materials, offering dedicated operating modes for each. The design allows for unwinding rolls of material weighing up to 150 kg (330 lbs) and measuring up to 450 mm (17.7 in) in diameter, making it suitable for an extremely wide range of applications. 

Improved ergonomics and high accessibility facilitate loading and unloading rolls while also increasing operational safety. Stiffer shafts and optimized roll clamping ensure smooth, uniform material unwind and reduce wrinkling, misalignment, and fluctuations in material tension. This directly affects the accuracy and repeatability of the cut. 

Depending on the configuration, various operating modes are available—from quick, manual roll-off to actively controlled material tension. As a result, the RollMaster can be precisely tailored to the material type and process requirements and supports consistent, efficient cutting throughout production.

The Roll Handling System – RHS6-50 is a game-changer for automated, uninterrupted single-ply cutting on an industrial scale. The system can handle up to six rolls of fabric which, depending on job requirements, may be identical or of different types. Only the processing method (pattern matching, plain, feature recognition, etc.) must be the same for all rolls. The automated Roll Handling System enables significantly longer periods of uninterrupted cutting, which maximizes the overall productivity of the system.

It autonomously supplies material to the cutter and ensures uninterrupted production even during material changes. It minimizes the need for user interventions and, by extension, staffing requirements.

Scanning the barcode (for roll ID and material length) ensures rolls of material are quickly and easily assigned to the RHS6-50 while they are being loaded onto the carousel. A handy label printer is used to efficiently mark the rolls with an updated barcode as they are removed. The MindCUT Studio Feeder RHS6-50 Add-on allows the RHS6-50 to be seamlessly integrated into the MindCUT software. MindCut also keeps track of material parameters and consumption.

The cradle feeder spreads and feeds stretchy textile materials from rolls precisely and tension free. It can easily handle rolls weighing up to 200 kg/440 lbs. Integrated edge control ensures accurate material feeding even with imperfect roll edges.

The cradle feeder is available in two versions to meet different requirements: Cradle Feeder 100 is suitable for rolls weighing up to 100 kg/220 lbs, while Cradle Feeder 200 can handle rolls weighing up to 200 kg/440 lbs. Both variants have the same functions and advantages, adapted to different weight classes.

• Tension-free feeding of flexible, stretchy textile materials
• Automatic, integrated web-edge control guarantees perfect alignment and feeding accuracy
• Cross-cut feature for manual or automatic cross cuts
• Simple controls with user-friendly touch panel
• Fast, easy roll changes for maximum versatility
• Reliable processing of rolls with defective or missing cores
• Optional roll-off unit with core support/shaft may be installed
• Fully supported by Zünd Cut Center – ZCC and MindCut software

Details

• Available for rolls up to 100 kg/220 lbs (model 100) and 200 kg/440 lbs (model 200)
• Roll diameter: max. 400 mm/15.75 in
• The use of the cross-cut feature requires a cutter extension
• Suitable for both inward and outward-wound rolls
• Optional guide rails (length 3 m) make it easy to push the cradle feeder out of the way when not in use
• Compatible with G3, S3, D3 (available in L, XL and 3XL widths)

The material guide roll effectively prevents creasing of textile materials. In the process, the material is fed over a guide roll to spread it. We recommend always using the material guide roll in combination with a roll-off unit!

• Optimized material guidance and reduced friction minimize wrinkling
• Ideal for stretch fabrics and rougher rolled materials

The motor-driven roll-up unit with shaft is used for continuous, automatic production of large kiss-cut orders. The material is immediately rolled onto the core after processing, which ensures that it remains clean and free of kinks and creases. This roll-up unit is ideally suited for vinyl, film, or printed fabrics with a max. roll weight of up to 70 kg/155 lbs.

The motorized roll-up tray is suitable for small kiss-cut jobs. The vinyl is automatically rolled up in a tray after processing. After each cut-off, the coreless rolls can be removed from the tray immediately without interrupting production. Suitable for vinyl sections no longer than 20 m/65 ft.

The collection tray is useful for collecting cut parts and waste. It ensures a clean working environment. For emptying, the tray can be removed from the cutter in a few simple steps.

• Collects cut parts and waste
• Emptying occurs without interrupting production
