Abstract

Cross cutters are important equipments in paper industry. A well-known design is to use mechanically coupled cutters providing synchronous motion. To improve dynamic behavior of cross cutters and to reduce maintenance effort it would be advantageous to operate the cutters by separately controlled servo drives. This idea requires very exact knowledge concerning cutter positions to ensure proper operation and to avoid any crash. This paper presents a progressive sensor measuring the distance between the cutter knives and distinguishing between knives approaching or touching each other directly on the one hand and normal cutting operation with material between the knives on the other hand. Measuring results obtained by a test example of the sensor are presented.
