Muhlbauer - Model ACS 350 -Antenna Cutting System

Mühlbauer’s Antenna Cutting Systems ACS 350 produces reliable UHF aluminum antennas on PET. The reel-to-reelsystem uses a two layer input material with a bottom material of PET and a top layer of aluminum. In the core process of cutting, the milling wheel mechanically removes the unneeded aluminum area from the aluminum layer and only leaves the desired antenna pattern standing, while the PET layer remains untouched. For a flexible production of different antenna patterns, the magnetic cylinder can be easily equipped with a different cliché (pattern). The integrated cleaning station with fixed brushes and suction system cleans the web and cliché of any loose particles. The next process steps check the quality of the production.
