Types of Top Slitters

Top slitter used in the shear slitting process can be described as dish shaped or flat, and can be single or double bevel (edge) or they can be square edged.

In the score cutting process there is only one blade involved, however because there are two surfaces the blade is often referred to as a top blade, with the roll or sleeve taking the place of the bottom blade. These top score blades are typically double bevel blades and can either have a continuous edge or be perforated blades to create a perforation in the material.
