Lectra Cutting Underlays And Conveyor Material For Cutter And Plotter

Key Materials & Specifications

1. Underlay Paper & Interleaving

• Perforated Kraft Paper: Placed directly on the conveyor/bristle bed under fabric plies. Allows uniform vacuum draw while preventing fabric snagging. Available in various hole patterns, widths (e.g., 60″ to 86″), and weights (70–120 GSM).

• Plain Kraft / Newsprint Paper: Used for un-perforated applications or lighter vacuum systems.

• Tecstil Interleaving: Porous, non-woven fabric separator designed to maintain spread stability and prevent distortion on delicate fabrics under pressure.

2. Vacuum Overlay Film

• HDPE / LDPE Poly Over-Wrap Film: Applied over top of fabric spreads before cutting.

• Function: Seals the vacuum table to compress fabric layers tightly against the bed for clean, accurate cutting.

• Specs: Thicknesses range from 10 to 60 microns (0.01mm to 0.06mm); anti-static formulations reduce drag on the cutter foot.

3. Conveyor Belts & Bed Materials

• Bristle Blocks: Interlocking plastic bristle tiles used on vacuum beds to allow full blade penetration without dulling or breaking the knife.

• Felt Conveyor Belts: Porous non-woven polyester or felt belts used on conveyorized cutting tables (e.g., Lectra Taurus for leather/single-ply) to allow high air permeability while protecting the machine bed.

• Perforated Polyurethane Belts: Durable vacuum conveyor belts engineered for heavy continuous-duty fabric feed.

Selection Tips

• Match Width to Bed Size: Ensure paper and film rolls exceed your maximum cutting width by 2–4 inches to keep the vacuum seal intact.

• Check Porosity Needs: High-ply dense fabrics require high-density perforated paper; single-ply leather cutting relies heavily on high-grip felt conveyor mats.

We offer different cutting underlays starting from 4,0 mm (Vidon brown/grey / black). Protecting tools and cutter surface. From the roll or cut to size if needed.Some are available as endless rolls with a with of 160 cm or 150 / 120/105 cm x 100meter length. This can save you lots from cutting to shipping cost.

Conveyorband can be offered for your own installation or with our service. EXACT size in mm is required to verify proper size.
