Print Shop Equipment: A Hydraulic Paper Cutter

A Hydraulic Paper Cutter is an important tool for any print shop. It can help you cut stacks of paper, card stock or laminated documents. Sometimes, you need a big cutter to finish down a big print job. A tabletop guillotine cutter will not do the job. Even a sophisticated creaser, slitter, and cutter is not enough for some projects.

Today, the machines are pretty sophisticated. Not only do they have all the safety mechanisms built-in to ensure no one accidently cuts a hand or finger off, (Your insurance company appreciates this) you can program up to 99 different cuts for regular projects. The advantage is you can train anyone to run the cutter. All you need to do is show them how to adjust the paper, the measurements are only done once.

The most popular line of the hydraulic paper cutter is the MBM Triumph line. Triumph has a couple of hydraulic paper cutters. They include:

It has an IR light beam safety curtain on the front table, safety cover on the rear table and a lockable main switch.

You can program up to 99 different cuts to make it safe and accurate every time. You can train anyone to operate the cutter. They just have to be taught which way to turn the paper while cutting.

Also, you can order optional work tables to install on the sides giving you more room to maneuver your project.
