What does Paper Slitter Round Knife Mean?

A paper slitter round knife, also known as a rotary paper slitting blade or circular slitter blade for paper, is a circular cutting tool specifically designed for slitting wide rolls of paper into narrower widths. These knives are a key component in slitting machines used in the paper converting, printing, and packaging industries. The term “paper slitter round knife” clearly indicates its circular shape and its primary application in slitting paper materials.

Uses and Applications of Paper Slitter Round Knives

Paper slitter round knives are essential for processing paper in various forms and for different end uses. The most commonly used is the 610mm diameter toilet paper slitting round knife. Their main applications include:

• Paper Mills: Slitting large mill rolls of paper into smaller, more manageable widths for further processing or distribution.
• Printing Industry: Slitting wide webs of printed paper into the required widths for binding, folding, or finishing processes.
• Paper Converting: Slitting paper rolls for the production of envelopes, labels, tapes, toilet paper, and other paper-based products.
• Packaging Industry: Slitting paperboard, linerboard, and other paper-based packaging materials into specific widths for carton and box manufacturing.
• Tissue and Towel Manufacturing: Slitting wide rolls of tissue and towel paper into narrower consumer-sized rolls.
• Label Stock Converting: Slitting wide rolls of adhesive-backed paper into narrower label rolls.
• Security Paper Processing: Precision slitting of security papers for documents and currency.

Common Materials for Paper Slitter Round Knives

The materials used for paper slitter round knives are selected for their sharpness, wear resistance, and ability to provide clean cuts without tearing or dust generation. Common materials include:

• 炭素鋼： Suitable for less demanding applications and cutting softer paper grades. Offers good initial sharpness.
• ハイスピード鋼 (HSS): Provides improved wear resistance and can maintain a sharper edge for longer periods compared to carbon steel, suitable for higher volumes and some coated papers. Grades like M2 are commonly used.
• Alloy Tool Steel (e.g., D2, A2): Offers a good balance of hardness, toughness, and wear resistance, ideal for slitting thicker paperboard, abrasive papers, and achieving clean cuts with minimal dust. D2 steel is particularly valued for its wear resistance.
• タングステンカーバイド: Provides exceptional hardness and wear resistance, crucial for high-speed slitting of abrasive papers, coated stocks, and achieving very long blade life and consistent cut quality. Can be used as solid carbide blades or as carbide-tipped inserts.

The blades are precision ground to achieve a razor-sharp cutting edge with specific bevel angles optimized for paper slitting. Coatings such as chromium or titanium nitride (TiN) can be applied to enhance surface hardness, reduce friction, and improve wear and corrosion resistance, especially when dealing with abrasive or chemically treated papers.

Common Paper Slitter Round Knife Shapes

Paper slitter round knives are primarily circular but come in various edge configurations and thicknesses to optimize slitting performance for different paper types and slitting methods:

• Solid Disc Knives: One-piece circular blades with a sharpened outer edge. The edge can be a single bevel, double bevel, or have a radius, depending on the slitting method (shear cut or score cut).
• Inserted Blade Knives: Feature replaceable cutting inserts made of harder materials like carbide, mounted on a steel body. This allows for cost-effective replacement of the wearing cutting edge.
• Shear Cut Knives: Used in pairs, with overlapping, sharp edges that create a clean scissor-like cut. Precise side force and overlap are crucial for clean slitting of various paper thicknesses.
• Score Cut Knives (Crush Cut Knives): Used with a mating anvil roller, these knives have a rounded or profiled edge that creates a score or crush to separate the paper web. Suitable for thinner paper grades.
• Razor Slitting Knives: Very thin, extremely sharp circular blades used for precision slitting of thin papers and films at high speeds.
• Dished Knives: Circular blades with a concave or convex profile, often used to control web tension and ensure clean cuts, especially with wider webs.

The working principle of paper slitter round knives involves rotary motion combined with controlled pressure to shear or score the moving paper web. In shear cutting, two sharp, overlapping blades create a clean cut. In score cutting, a duller, rounded blade presses the paper against an anvil roller, causing it to separate along the score line. The sharpness and geometry of the cutting edge, the speed of rotation, web tension, and the specific slitting method all significantly impact the quality and efficiency of the paper slitting process. Proper setup and maintenance of the paper slitter round knives are essential for minimizing paper dust, ensuring clean cuts, and maximizing blade life.
