Growing Demand Pushed the Factory to Upgrade Its Production Line
As Indonesia's packaging and printing industries continue growing, local paper converting factories are facing increasing pressure to improve production efficiency while maintaining stable product quality.
One paper processing company in Indonesia recently upgraded its sheeting line with the CHM-1400 Precision High Speed Sheeter after experiencing long-term production bottlenecks caused by unstable cutting accuracy and frequent downtime.
The factory mainly processes coated paper, offset paper, and packaging paper for commercial printing and local packaging manufacturers. With rising customer demand, the company needed a more stable and efficient reel-to-sheet converting solution.
The Original Production Problems
Before introducing the CHM-1400 sheeter, the factory relied on an older mechanical cutting system that created several operational challenges during daily production.
The main problems included:
Unstable cutting accuracy at higher speeds
Frequent manual adjustments during operation
Paper edge burrs and dust
Production interruptions during long runs
Inconsistent sheet stacking quality
According to the factory manager, the previous machine could not maintain stable performance when production speed increased above 180 m/min. Operators frequently needed to adjust tension and feeding alignment manually, which reduced overall production efficiency.
Why the Factory Chose the CHM-1400
After comparing several suppliers, the customer selected the CHM-1400 Precision High Speed Sheeter because of its stable servo control system, high-speed cutting capability, and strong reputation in the paper converting industry.
The CHM-1400 is designed for reel-to-sheet processing applications including:
Coated paper
Kraft paper
Offset paper
Duplex board
Packaging paper
The machine adopts servo-driven synchronization technology with stable tension control and automatic web guiding systems to improve cutting precision and reduce production instability.
Key machine configurations included:
Servo-driven cutting system
Automatic tension control
Double-arm hydraulic unwind stand
Automatic web guiding system
Static elimination device
Automatic counting and sheet collection system
Production Performance After Installation
After installation and commissioning, the factory reported significant improvements in daily production performance.
Compared with the previous equipment:
Production stability improved considerably
Manual adjustments were greatly reduced
Sheet cutting accuracy became more consistent
Production downtime decreased
Finished sheet quality improved
The factory gradually increased operating speed to over 260 m/min while maintaining stable cutting quality and smooth sheet stacking performance.
Operators also reported that the servo synchronization system made machine operation easier and reduced dependence on manual correction during long production cycles.
Customer Feedback
According to the customer's production supervisor:
"The CHM-1400 helped us improve production stability and reduce many of the problems we previously faced during high-speed sheeting. The machine runs more smoothly, and our operators spend less time making manual adjustments."
For paper converting factories facing rising labor costs and increasing quality requirements, stable production efficiency has become a key factor in maintaining competitiveness.
CHM continues providing high-precision paper sheeting and converting solutions for customers across Southeast Asia and global paper processing markets.
