New Slitter Scorer SR‑C boosts efficiency in the corrugator
BHS Corrugated introduces the new Slitter Scorer SR‑C as a key addition to the Corruverse ecosystem, designed for maximum efficiency at frequent order changes and digitally printed jobs. The “C” stands for Combined, reflecting its ability to unite multiple configuration and performance levels within one machine concept.
With fast changeovers, modular upgradeability and a compact footprint, the SR‑C supports corrugated board producers in meeting today’s increasing flexibility and performance demands – fully aligned with the connected, data‑driven workflows in the Corruverse.
Instant positioning, faster changeovers
At the core of the SR‑C is its instant positioning. In this machine, all scorers and knives are equipped with direct positioning, allowing them to reposition individually and automatically. Especially for scorers, this results in a significant reduction in positioning time, allowing a new order setup to be prepared within two seconds.
The fast‑positioning system also enables the SR‑C to handle another growing market requirement driven by increasingly demanding packaging solutions: Narrow scoring patterns, which require tandem production using two scoring sections. Order changes between mentioned tandem runs, can be processed at impressive speeds without the need for additional equipment – making the SR‑C the fastest solution in the market. Therefore, Auxiliary stations are only required for special scoring profiles or to support fast tandem order changes.
Modular design that grows with customer needs
The SR‑C features a modular, upgradeable design that allows all machine configurations to be realized within the same mechanical frame and software architecture. It can be equipped with different knife and scorer configurations to meet specific performance and budget requirements. The machine can be started with a simple scorer-knife configuration and upgraded step by step to additional knife and scoring sections as production demands increase.
Precision and quality without compromise
The proven cut‑from‑below principle delivers excellent results for demanding applications, including preprinted and print-ready sheets. Seamless width changes within the paper further increase flexibility in order planning and production scheduling.
Compact, flexible and ready for the future
Despite its high performance, the Slitter Scorer SR‑C features a compact design, making it suitable for plants with limited space. It is available for all BHS Corrugated lines – CLASSIC, FLEX, SPEED and WIDTH Line – and can be configured for multiple working widths and station combinations. Its short positioning times for all tool bodies make the SR-C future-proof for all upcoming challenges in the box plant, as the trend is significantly pointing towards shorter order runs and narrow scorings.
Key benefits of the SR-C:
Short order handling:
The SR‑C is designed to handle short orders at 25 m order length at speeds of up to 350 m/min, providing a significant advantage in production environments with a growing share of short runs, digitally printed orders, and shorter throughput times.Peak production performance:
Order change speeds for orders above 25 m peak at 400 m/min, making it the industry's highest performance. Production speeds aside from order changes are not limited by the SR-C and can go up to 450 m/min.Flexibility:
Configurable for multiple working widths and combinations of knife and scorer stations. The machine can be upgraded at a later stage, allowing customers to grow without major modifications to the existing setup.
