Set cutting For maximum waste reduction and operating efficiency, trim width cores should be used. A trim width core is defined as a core that matches the trim width of the winder. The complete set is cut from one single parent core, thus reducing waste to an absolute minimum. Set cutting also eliminates problems such as soft rolls and uneven winding, as all cores in the set are cut from one uniform core. |

Batch cutting Batch cutting is defined as cutting cores from parent cores that are shorter than the winder trim width. The result is greater waste (10-20%) and the possibility of mismatched sets, variation in OD's, etc., causing problems in the winder. |
