Perforating Consulting – Contract Perforation – Burckhardt

Since we develop and build the machines as well as the perforating tools it is a natural step to offer various perforating services:

• Consulting
• Product Development
• Pilot Run
• Contract Perforation

If you wish to develop a new application, we propose the following easy steps:

• set targets for desired application
• discuss the  possibilities with our experts
• develop a trial set-up
• run trials in our laboratory under industrial conditions
• review results and define improvements

This way, using our know-how and the Perforating Laboratory, we are ready to help you to develop new applications in perforating, embossing, napping, transporting, cutting, tearing, separating, and many others.

In our fully equipped laboratory we have a state of the art perforating line with roll to roll perforating and slitting.
