METZNER MASCHINENBAU GMBH - Your Partner for Automation Solutions

With automatic continuous punching machines, machine and tool merge into a high-performance system with high output and remarkable flexibility. Whether sealing profiles for the automotive industry, applications for furniture, or household appliances – complex trimming is often required here. Thanks to the Metzner automatic throughfeed punching machines, processing operations such as contour cutting, drilling and milling can be integrated into a throughfeed system. All these machines store all machining parameters and machine settings in a machining recipe. When starting production, an integrated barcode scanner activates all presettings on the basis of the working papers and simultaneously reports the correct tool and material on the machine display. The barcode also contains the required quantities and lengths. Thanks to well thought-out quick-change systems, tools and materials are generally changed within no more than 30 seconds, minimizing downtimes.

The tubing specialist with unique precision and working speed for very thin, tension-elastic and pressure-sensitive materials. KL-BV is available in the equipment line Green and as KL-BV Gasket. The Metzner KL-BV cutting machine stands out for its precision, compact design, and the wide range of processing options such as silicone tubes, flexible profiles and gaskets. KL-BV GASKET With its particularly thin blades and precision feed, the KL-BV Gasket is ideal for cutting flat gaskets with a diameter of up to 12 mm.

The Metzner CCM 2 circular cutting machine processes steel-reinforced profiles and sponge rubber materials with dry cutting (optionally with micro-knife moistening to cool the circular knife). The standard model comes with an integrated discharge conveyor (1300 mm length); range of application both in-line and off-line.

The special feature of the Metzner CCM 4: the circular cutting machine handles both wet and dry cutting. Depending on the type of cut, the CCM 4 is equipped with a water-cooling lubrication system or micro-knife moistening and preparation for suction. The standard model comes with an integrated discharge conveyor (800 mm length); application range both in-line and off-line. For tubes with suitable material properties the CCM 4 Gasket offers the possibility to cut flat gaskets with the circular knife. Suitable for tubes with max. 30 or 50 mm diameter and a tube length of 1 mm to 1000 m.

The travelling circular knife machine CCM 6 cuts rigid profiles and tubes accurately to length. The CCM 6 achieves very long processing times of several seconds for excellent "final trim quality" thanks to a standard servo linear drive for the tool carrier, and at the same time extremely short cycle times of less than one second for machining short parts at high line speeds. Added to this is the servo linear drive for circular knife feed with different feed speeds for different material sections, e.g. a gentle material penetration or knife exit with low feed to reduce burr formation. High speed ranges As far as the knife speed is concerned, we offer you outstanding possibilities of alternatively 2,000 – 6,000 rpm or 4,000 – 12,000 rpm. This means that there are no limits to the use of various types of circular knives, including clamping and grinding in continuous operation. Our product videos will give you an insight into the machining process.

The modular system of the MBS series is available in three sizes. The MBS 100 is the "smallest" of the three models and processes materials such as tubes and profiles of up to 90 mm wide. Depending on the material size, further machine elements such as type and number of cutting tools, length and width of the belt feed, control, feed, running direction, coating material of the conveyor belts and base frames are selected. Metzner "MBS series" cutting machines stand for outstanding flexibility when machining flexible and semi-rigid profiles made of rubber and plastic. With different cutting methods and machine components, cutting machines are created which can be individually adapted to customer requirements and are made available in the shortest possible time with hardly any development effort.

The modular system of the MBS series is available in three sizes. The MBS 200 is the "medium-sized" of the three models and processes materials such as tubes and profiles up to 190 mm wide. Depending on the material size, further machine elements such as type and number of cutting tools, length and width of the belt feed, control, feed, running direction, coating material of the conveyor belts and base frames are selected.

The modular system of the MBS series is available in three sizes. The MBS 400 is the “largest" of the three models and processes materials such as tubes and profiles of up to 390 mm wide. Depending on the material size, further machine elements such as type and number of cutting tools, length and width of the belt feed, control, feed, running direction, coating material of the conveyor belts and base frames are selected.

Where pneumatic tools of the MBS series reach their performance limits, the eccentric cutting machine opens up new possibilities in cutting performance. Instead of a pneumatic cutting tool, the Metzner ST 25 uses an electrically driven eccentric mechanism that carries a punching blade. This enables us to increase the performance of the die-cut into completely new dimensions, of up to 800 cuts per minute. An agreeable side-effect: With the electric drive for the cutting tool, the ST 25 works very quietly – which is why customers with low-noise working environments also like to opt for this model.

Metzner has developed the mandrel cutting machines of the SR series for cutting off sealing rings from injection-moulded or extruded tubes with different diameters. These machines are characterised by their unique processing method and high cutting quality. First, pre-extended "rubber tubes" are clamped onto mandrels. Due to the special design of the mandrels, the mandrel can be set up and removed quickly and without special previous knowledge. The mandrels are then automatically clamped in the machine between rotating spindles and production is started. A knife carriage travels along the tubes and cuts the flat sealing rings to the desired length with either push-fit or circular knives, depending on the requirements. This cutting method is particularly impressive with its high cutting quality in combination with a high output.
