Solution:
Everite provided a unique high production dual head cut off machine in conjunction with an automation partner. A machine was developed to cut both ends of the tubes, 12 at a time. The machine is hopper fed and fully automatic. The operator only loads the input basket with raw tubes and removed the finished parts from the output basket. The tubes are completely burr free and ready to be moved to the subsequent cleaning and assembly operation. Production rate for the machine is 25,000 tubes per day on a 2 shift operation.
