The Matrix Removal System, featuring the Matrix TwisterTM is a comprehensive system designed specifically to pneumatically convey PSA (pressure sensitive adhesive) waste matrix and edge trim from a label press or die cutter to a compactor, baler, or dumpster. The patented* design “twists” the matrix into a roped form for ease of conveying, reducing the amount of exposed adhesive by collapsing it onto itself. The more aggressive the adhesive, the better it sticks to itself and the easier it is to convey. A fine, food-grade silicone mist, introduced into the inlet of the system, ensures system performance.
  • Increase Label Production - run the press continuously
  • Improve Label Quality -concentrate on production
  • Eliminate Potential Safety Issues - no strenuous matrix roll changes
  • Utilize Valuable Floor Space – once cluttered with matrix spools
Below is an example of the annual bottom line improvement made possible by installing the Matrix Twister™ Removal System on just one press. Space is provided on the form for you to input your operation’s specific numbers. Once completed, you can print a copy for your records. You may then reenter a different scenario, recalculate the numbers and see what the system can do for your bottom line.
