What is slitter?

A slitter is a machine used in manufacturing and processing industries to cut materials such as metal, paper, plastic, and textiles into more narrow strips or widths. There are different types of slitters such as rotary shear slitters, crush-cut slitters, and razor slitters. The slitting process involves moving the material through the slitter at high speeds while blades or rotary cutters make precise cuts to produce strips of uniform width. Slitters are commonly used in industries such as packaging, printing, automotive, and electronics. They are also used in the production of consumer goods such as adhesive tapes, stickers, and labels. The size and capacity of slitters vary depending on the type of material being cut and the volume of production. Slitters can improve production efficiency, quality, and reduce waste.
