PROBLEM:

To feed, cut and stack honeycomb paper in alternating layers to a predetermined height.

SOLUTION:

Develop an inline process capable of producing variable lengths while at the same time stacking the sheets accurately.

SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS:

The paper de-reeler must constantly monitor the weight of the paper roll and adjust its speed accordingly.
The cut edge must be square to within + .02" over the 24" wide sheet.
The cut sheets must be stacked with lines of glue offset on alternating layers of paper.
The finished stack of paper must be presented to the operator for easy removal.
