Slitting Lines

Slitting is a process used to cut a metal strip into narrower
strips, allowing for efficient utilization of flat material. It is widely
used across various industries.

Highest Quality and Precision

b+s is one of the leading manufacturers of precision slitting lines for cutting and winding of thin strips and strips with a critical surface finishes.

Our slitting lines meet the highest standards of quality and precision. We guarantee best results for your cutting processes and achieve the highest slitting quality, most accurate width tolerance and a high-precision winding techniques.

Our precision slitting lines are customized: line speed and design of the machines as well as the degree of automation depends on the required productivity of the line, the required surface quality, strip thickness, strip width and coil weight.

Take advantage of the years our experience in the cutting of materials like wire mesh, lead, gold, silver, copper, aluminum, stainless steel, palladium, molybdenum, tantalum, niobium and plastic.

Advantages of a b+s Slitting Line

  • High-precision cutting quality due to clearance-free slitter shaft bearings
  • Reduction of set-up times through innovative automation solutions as well as high line speeds
  • Minimization of the degree of burr height with a simultaneously high number of strips due to the smallest possible deflection of the slitter shafts
  • Exact winding pattern with increasing coil diameter due to a movable brake stand
  • No damage to the surfaces of highly sensitive materials due to innovative braking technology, such as vacuum brake roll
  • High energy savings due to state-of-the-art regenerative systems and use of energy-saving drives
  • Experience in processing ultra-high-strength materials with a tensile strength above 1,500 N/mm² (217.55 ksi) and a yield strength above 1,100 N/mm² (159.54 ksi)
