Technical Textile Cutting

Technical Textiles encompasses a wide range of applications from large tensile structures to automotive interiors. Exact Technology has supplied some of the most prestigious companies from aerospace companies to Formula 1 racing.

Exact's cutting machines are fast, accurate, robust and reliable. They provide a turnkey solution for design, rapid prototyping and manufacturing, eliminating the time consuming operation of cutting by hand and maximising the best use of material, reducing wastage.

Cutting Benefits
  • Eliminate the repetitive and time consuming operation of cutting by hand
  • Rapid prototyping simple and quick modifications to flat patterns
  • Eradicate the need for templates
  • Part marking for easy identification of cut components
  • Improved material utilisation through optimum nesting of parts within parts
  • Set the machine up and leave it running all day
  • Easy loading and unloading of material
  • Quality control all component sets are identical
  • Low maintenance, reliable and easy to use.

Maximise Productivity

The Exact cutting machines are available in 5 standard machine widths, with the option of a static (XTS) or conveyorised (XTC) cutting bed. The main advantages of the XTC range is continuous production and the ability to process material longer than the machines cutting bed.

The continuous cutting operation performed by the XTC offers maximum through-put of cut parts. Rolls of material are fed from the rear of the cutting machine into the cutting zone. Once cut, the conveyor belt feeds the components to a take off table located at the front of the machine, where the operator can remove the parts whilst the machine continues to cut the next job. For more information, see material handing.

Flexible Cutting

The flexible tooling combination enables the full spectrum of composite and technical textile materials to be cut, including pre pregs, dry fabrics, glass fibre, hybrid, foam, honeycomb cores, to name just a few.

With the MultiTask tool head you can choose the right tool for the right job. To learn more about the multitask head, see tooling.
