Fin Mill

Forming the future.

+ Fin Mill Machine

Built to exacting standards, this best-in-class Fin Mill Machine is an essential element for the successful integration of a fully automatic production cell.

Capable of single or twin lane operation and up to 75 cuts and 250 per minute, the unique high-speed fin slicer guarantees root or peak cut off with zero error in convolution count - without fin damage. Up to 100mm strip widths.

  • Built to exacting standards with both single and twin track production.
  • The Fin Mill Machine is Fully compatible with FMC Form & Gather roll cassettes.
  • Excellent digital back tension and pitch control ensures accurate height and pitch.
  • Option of side or upper/lower pitch control system.
  • Optional Calibration station for flat top fins, gives height repeatability within +/0.02mm.
  • Wider machines available for turbulator or CAC products up to 330mm.
  • Aluminium or stainless steel materials accommodated.
