Our Challenge: Cutting Tough Materials

Cutting or shaping durable safety tapes presents a complex challenge due to their longevity and handling difficulty. At Heskins, however, we thrive on overcoming these challenges. Our production facility is staffed by highly experienced personnel, many of whom have dedicated decades to our mission. Their expertise, combined with world-class machinery, enables us to tackle even the most demanding applications.

To demonstrate our capabilities, we recently worked with an exceptionally thick, rugged plastic material infused with minerals. This type of material is highly challenging, as it can easily crack or fragment if not handled correctly. Our skilled team and advanced machinery managed the process with precision, showcasing the high level of service and capability that sets Heskins apart.

The Summa Machine: A Benchmark in Precision Engineering

Our latest addition, the Summa machine, represents the cutting edge of precision engineering. This tool-less cutting system requires a high level of operational and design expertise, but it delivers outstanding performance and flexibility.

Advancements and Modifications

We have enhanced our Summa machine with features such as magic eyes and a variety of blade options. Its CAD-driven operation removes the need for traditional cutting tools, significantly lowering setup costs for customers requiring custom-shaped anti-slip materials.

Efficiency and Precision

The Summa machine optimizes material usage by nesting shapes efficiently, reducing waste while maintaining exceptional speed and accuracy. The integration of our magic eye system allows for precise cut-to-register functionality, even on abrasive safety-grip materials.

Kiss-Cutting Technique

In addition, the Summa machine supports kiss-cutting, allowing us to cut through the top layer of material without penetrating the liner. When used alongside complementary machinery, this process is especially effective for abrasive safety-grip materials.
