CUB – Compact Unit

A compact machine-side waste collection unit for process waste

The Kongskilde CUB-1600 is a compact and efficient waste disposal unit designed to streamline production floor waste management across the label, printing, film, extrusion, and packaging industries. It is available with an integrated 900 liter bag, endless bag system, or compactor solution to suit your operational needs.

Built to handle various process waste types, including labels, non-adhesive and self-adhesive edge trims, die-cut pieces, and matrix waste, the CUB-1600 ensures smooth and continuous waste collection. This compact unit can be easily moved between production lines, making it ideal for manufacturers seeking a flexible and efficient waste solution.

Features

Built for label, print, and packaging operations

All-in-one waste removal

A single compact machine captures, cuts, conveys, and collects waste in one step, streamlining waste removal from one or multiple production machines.

Compact, mobile design

Built to withstand continuous operation, the CUB is compact and highly mobile. The small footprint fits through standard factory doors, and it moves easily between machines on a forklift or pallet jack.

Flexible bag or compactor collection

Available with an integrated 900-liter Big Bag, Endless Bag system, or Waste Screw Compactor. The endless bag extends time between changes, and the compactor compresses and discharges material automatically into a bin for continuous automated waste removal.

Built-in cutter for material reduction

The integrated cutting module reduces waste volume, which maximizes bin and transport capacity and reduces manual handling.

Anti-static and non-stick options

Available in 2 kW and 4 kW models, with basic, antistatic, or non-stick versions to handle sticky or static-prone material.

Safer work environment, easy operation

Large built-in silencers reduce noise disturbances in production environments, while simple controls keep operation straightforward. Reduced dust, noise, clutter, and manual handling create safer working conditions.

Energy-efficient, low maintenance

A high-efficiency blower keeps energy consumption down. Durable construction lowers maintenance costs and improves uptime.

Configure to your needs

Configure the CUB around your process:

  • Oil mist system – for trim handling with glue, so adhesive residue doesn’t gum up the cutter and airflow path.
  • Antistatic kit – for trim carrying high static charges.
  • HEPA filtration kit – upgrades the unit’s standard filter for even better return-air quality.
  • Level sensor with light tower kit– gives operators an at-a-glance fill signal.
  • Endless bag kit – extends the run between bag changes.
  • Waste screw compactor – compact material for disposal directly into collection bins.

Your complete waste solution

The CUB operates continuously, minimizing human intervention and maximizing uptime. With its small footprint and easy mobility, the CUB is ideal for small and mid-sized production lines.

  • Simplify Waste Handling: Install the CUB in just 15 minutes and enjoy intuitive, easy-to-use controls.
  • Reduce Downtime: The CUB ensures continuous waste removal without frequent stoppages.
  • Increase Efficiency: Automatic waste handling means less manual work, allowing your operators to focus on higher-value tasks.
  • Improve Space Management: Compact and mobile, the CUB fits into any workspace and can be easily moved between machines as needed.

Applications of the CUB Compact Waste Disposal Unit

The CUB compact waste disposal unit is highly versatile and suitable for various industries and production processes where efficient waste handling is essential:

  • Label Converting and Printing: Efficiently collects and disposes of adhesive waste, die-cut scraps, and matrix waste for continuous operation.
  • Plastic Film Extrusion and Coating: Manages sticky and non-adhesive waste materials, ensuring smooth and uninterrupted production.
  • Packaging and Slitting: Ideal for collecting edge trims and die-cut pieces from packaging lines.
  • Lamination and Rewinding: Handles non-adhesive and adhesive waste, providing a reliable waste solution for laminated materials.
  • General Manufacturing: Flexible waste disposal across diverse manufacturing lines, helping keep production floors clean and organized.

User-Friendly Controls

With push-button controls and a speed dial, the CUB offers intuitive operation without complex programming. Operators can adjust settings quickly to keep production efficient and uninterrupted.

Silent Operation

Large silencers within a steel-enclosed structure to minimize noise, allowing quiet operation close to production lines. This design keeps noise-sensitive areas undisturbed, promoting a comfortable, low-noise work environment.

Flexible Mobility

The compact design of the CUB is highly mobile and can easily be moved with a forklift or pallet jack. It fits through most standard production doorways, enabling quick relocation across production lines for versatile waste collection.

Extended Operation

The CUB unit’s endless bag kit enables extended operation and replacement. For continuous operation, the Waste Screw Compactor allows for unlimited capacity by compacting materials directly into a bin.
