kneeling, with a blade

VS

5 m membrane with Rooffox

1:35 min

automatic, documented

On the left, everyday work without the machine: lay the batten, mark up, cut kneeling – for every single membrane. On the right, the same job with the Rooffox: load the roll, enter the size, press the button – the finished pieces stack up by themselves.

Time

Faster workflow

While the machine works through the cutting list, your team gets on with other work. Only the rolls need reloading.

Precision

Dead-straight cuts

Every cut exactly to size, little waste, all quantities documented. The software reduces errors and material wear.

Money

Measurably pays off

Straight cuts, little waste, documented quantities. The calculator below shows when the Rooffox pays off for your business.

Health is working capital

Healthy employees.
Healthy company. More revenue.

Cutting bitumen by hand means kneeling, bending, pulling a sharp blade – for hours. The Rooffox takes exactly this work off your team. What that means for your business:

Easy on backs and knees
The roll is loaded from the side, not lifted. Cutting is done standing up, at the push of a button – ergonomic instead of kneeling.
No risk of injury when cutting
The sharp blades work inside the machine, not in the hand. Fewer cuts, fewer days off sick.
Skilled workers where they earn revenue
Whoever isn't cutting is welding. Apprentices learn the value-adding work earlier – and people who work without wearing their bodies out stay with the company longer. With today's skills shortage, that's hard cash.

Calculation based on the reference values of Haidl Products GmbH: 15 min per bitumen membrane (5 m) by hand vs. 1 min 35 s with the Rooffox. Membrane requirement: 0.112 membranes per metre of parapet per layer (equals 33.6 membranes per 100 m of parapet with 3 layers). Actual values may vary from project to project. We give a 4-year warranty on the Rooffox. Tax depreciation is not yet included in the payback calculation – the actual payback period may therefore be even shorter.

How to use

Four steps to the finished cut

2 Mitarbeiter legt Bitumenrolle auf der Baustelle seitlich in den ROOFFOX ein
The roll is loaded from the side – no lifting – and fed in by the machine.
3 Halbmondklingen schneiden die Bitumenbahn in Querrichtung
The membranes are cut crosswise with standard half-moon blades.

After the cut, the pieces usually stack with the top side facing up.

How to use it, demonstrated by the inventor

Tobias Büttgen, roofer and developer of the ROOFFOX, shows the individual steps on site.

Blade change in seconds

Standard half-moon blades from Lutz Blades. Depending on the material, one blade lasts 100 to 500 cuts – changing it takes a few seconds.

Maintenance-free technology

Automatically detects remnants that are too short, ejects them and carries on with the new roll. If material does get caught: unscrew, remove, carry on.

Ausfahrbarer Handgriff des ROOFFOX V2.0

Extendable handle

The handle extends – so you pull the Rooffox on its four castors behind you like a cart, straight to where the cutting is done.
