Introducing the FOX TrimAway® and the FOX Runner® systems engineered for efficient trim removal during production or converting of most web materials including, paper, film, foil, board, nonwovens and textiles. It is effective with trim ranging from 1/16“ to 6“ widths and can operate at speeds up to 4000 feet per minute.

The venturi-based FOX TrimAway® system includes a Gast® Regenerative Blower and a unique, adjustable venturi. It transports waste to any waste collection point and can be integrated with recycling equipment. The system can operate as a single installation or as a coherent system consisting of several FOX TrimAway® systems. A complete CAC® FOX TrimAway® system includes all required parts and components needed to begin efficient trim removal.

The versatile FOX Runner® is a portable version of the FOX TrimAway® that can be quickly engaged and disengaged and easily rolled, on built-in wheels, from one production line to another, as needed.

The FOX TrimAway® system is especially advantageous when employed for removal of difficult to wind narrow trim widths and thin gauge products. In such applications, FOX TrimAway®: systems have paid for themselves very quickly by freeing manufacturers from the need to product waste in wider than necessary, easily wound widths, according the Jeff Damour, CAC® Engineering Manager.

”We have customers who reduced their edge trim from a width of several inches to a fraction of an inch. It doesn't take very long for reduction of a few inches of web width to add up to major savings,“ Damour said. ”Many customers claim to have paid for the FOX TrimAway®: in less than six months.“

FOX TrimAway® systems are designed to be exceptionally easy to install and easy to operate. They are quiet, frugal consumers of electricity, especially when compared to systems that rely on energy gobbling compressed air.

”Energy efficiency is derived in part from not requiring a compressor. Being compressor free also contributes to the quiet operation of the FOX TrimAway®. Though we offer silencers, the system, without silencers, is complete OSHA compliant,“ Damour said. All FOX TrimAway® systems are modular constructions sized to customer requirements.

CAC® offers 30 standard systems with blowers from 1 horsepower to 15 horsepower. All components are engineered to match each customer's specifications. Components include a unique, adjustable Venturi, Gast® Regenerative Blower, pickup nozzle, Y connectors, collection center, flexible ducts, motor starters, trim choppers, filters and silencers if needed. In short, Damour says, we deliver a complete ready-to-work trim removal system fully supported by readily available spare parts.
