The Expander is designed specifically for the purpose of expanding continuous paper honeycomb. The Expander is fed from the core pallet and the core is then pulled through the machine by the use of Pull Rollers. The core is expanded and heated to hold the expansion and then cut to desired lengths.
The Expander has several important features, such as (21) Electric Heat Elements, Saw with a Cross-Cut 12” Circular Blade, Digital Temperature Controller, Manual Speed Controller, Mechanical Length Control Photo Eye, Pull Rollers and is insulated. The Expansion Section is separate from the oven so that a glue applicator may be installed by the customer.
