Cleaner Converting Starts Here

Rotary die cutter dust collection systems from Engineered Recycling Systems (ERS) are engineered for high‑speed corrugated converting environments, delivering precise dust collection, stable airflow control, and continuous filtration for machines such as the BOBST DRO, Ward RDC, Göpfert Evolution and HBL, and Marquip MaxPro. These converting lines generate fine paper dust, adhesive residue, and lightweight trim waste—conditions that demand engineered airflow control and industrial‑grade filtration to maintain clean air, protect equipment, and support uninterrupted production. Bobst, Ward, Göpfert, and Marquip are trademarks of their respective owners. Engineered Recycling Systems is not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by these companies. ERS systems are installed on machines purchased and operated by our customers.

ERS designs and installs advanced rotary die cutter dust collection systems specifically for rotary die cutters, flexo folder gluers, and vacuum‑transfer converting equipment. Our systems are installed across North America, supporting facilities that require clean, compliant, and high‑performance dust control in demanding corrugated production environments.

ERS systems are engineered to meet the airflow, pressure, and dust‑loading challenges unique to rotary die cutting. High‑speed vacuum transfer creates fluctuating air velocities that traditional filtration systems cannot manage. ERS systems stabilize airflow, capture dust at the source, and maintain consistent suction across the entire converting process. This ensures clean print surfaces, precise die‑cutting, and reduced downtime caused by dust buildup or clogged vacuum channels.

ERS systems are built around proven components that deliver long‑term reliability. A balancing fan stabilizes chute pressure to maintain consistent scrap flow and prevent surges that disrupt conveying. The CCM® OCT Filter uses rotating suction nozzles to clean filter media every few minutes, eliminating the need for compressed air and maintaining low pressure loss. A low‑profile separator efficiently separates trim in tight machine layouts, directing scrap to balers or bins without interrupting production. Optional cyclone and pucker systems compress airborne dust into dense pucks for easy disposal or reintegration into the baler chute.

Dust control is essential for rotary die cutters because fine particulate can settle on print surfaces, interfere with vacuum channels, and reduce die‑cutting precision. Adhesive‑backed dust and paper fines often escape traditional filtration systems, especially in vacuum‑transfer setups where airflow fluctuates rapidly. ERS systems are engineered to capture dust at the source, maintain airflow integrity, and reduce cleanup cycles across high‑speed converting lines.

ERS systems are custom‑engineered to match the geometry, airflow behavior, and operating characteristics of each machine type. Whether the application involves bottom‑print configurations, inline finishing, multi‑out setups, or specialty tooling, ERS designs hoods, ducting, and filtration systems that preserve print quality, protect equipment, and reduce scrap buildup. Each system is tailored to the specific converting line, facility layout, and production requirements.

ERS dust collection systems meet OSHA and NFPA standards for dust control, supporting safe operation and reducing the risk of fines or compliance issues. By reducing airborne particulate density, ERS systems help protect operators, improve workplace safety, and support future upgrades such as spark detection, fire suppression, and explosion isolation. Clean air is essential in corrugated converting, and ERS systems deliver the performance required for modern production environments.

ERS systems are installed on a wide range of converting machines used in high‑speed corrugated and folding carton production. Supported equipment includes the BOBST DRO, Ward RDC, Göpfert HBL and Evolution, and Marquip MaxPro, along with custom‑built lines and legacy systems. These machine names are used solely for identifying compatible applications. ERS provides independent engineered systems for customer‑owned equipment.

Every facility has unique airflow, dust‑loading, and equipment layout requirements. ERS works closely with engineering and operations teams to design systems that match production speeds, substrate types, and facility constraints. Whether retrofitting a single rotary die cutter or upgrading an entire converting line, ERS delivers engineered dust collection solutions that improve uptime, reduce labor, and maintain clean, compliant operation.
