Schober USA has added the VentCut line of products to their micro-perforation needling and cutting equipment. Specially designed for micro-cutting application, VentCut enhances ventilation, moisture release and expansion capabilities of agricultural and consumer good packaging as well as technical materials. They are ideal for produce packaging, plastic "floating row covers", wallpaper, bakery bags, animal food, cement and fertilizer bags, and nonwoven products including hospital gowns, heated hospital blankets, bandages, smocks, lab coats, and more.

The VentCut product line can be easily integrated into in-line processes, or equipped with optional unwind and rewind for stand-alone operations.   VentCut which can be web- or motor-driven at speeds of up to 600 ft/min, is ideal for paper and film-like web materials.  Custom designs and special tools are available for materials like foam, aluminum and more.
