Fastest system for operator-free and edge-precise ream preparation

With the POLAR AirGo Jog, edge-precise material preparation is fully automatic. Two integrated blowing devices create a perfectly aligned cutting ream.

The workflow: A complete cutting layer is picked up by the Transomat loader and transported by a gripper into the jogger. In the jogger, the complete cutting ream is fanned out with a high volume of air so that the sheets are aligned with edge precision. Finally, the air is removed at high pressure. The operator pulls the jogged layer from the front table or, optionally, from a gripper system onto the high-speed cutter's rear table.

Fastest system on the market

By jogging the complete cutting layer, an extremely short cycle time of approx. 90 – 120 seconds (with airing cycle) per 16 cm cutting layer is possible. All existing automatic jogging systems on the market process partial layers and therefore need at least twice the time to prepare the layer.

Maximum flexibility

AirGo Jog is highly flexible with format ranges from 43 x 61 cm bis 78 x 106 cm. Critical materials such as glued sheets, protruding or folded corners, difficult grammages and small formats can be jogged at any time in manual mode, which is available at the touch of a button. Switching between manual and automatic is therefore possible immediately. Different ream heights can be processed without changeover. This is a major advantage, especially in the Web2Print sector, where each layer can be a different job.

Best ergonomics

In the material preparation process, the physical strain must not be disregarded. The high degree of automation of the system promises the best possible physical relief for the operator and reduces downtime. Manual interventions for material transport, separation and fanning of the sheets are eliminated. After all, up to 40 tons of paper otherwise have to be lifted in one shift during this work step.With AirGo Jog, only one operator is required for the entire cutting process.

Job changeover at the push of a button

AirGo Jog is operated via an HMI based on the latest industry standards, which is characterized by simple and intuitive handling.Job changes are largely automated, with the exception of the actual pallet change, so there is hardly any set-up time when changing jobs. Job management is available for reoccurring jobs.

Wide range of applications

Reliable runtimes are ensured by the use of standard components.The POLAR modular system allows easy retrofitting to existing cutting systems or PACE systems. In addition, AirGo Jog can also be used as a stand-alone solution for feeding several cutting systems.

State-of-the-art control technology

The future-proof new industrial control system allows data exchange and integration into the workflow, as well as the remote service function, which further improves machine availability. The system is even prepared for predictive maintenance with the new control platform.
