These amazing, incredibly manageable and compact cutting machines simply glide through any fabric with which they are presented and provide the ultimate clean cut. The resulting aesthetic is one worthy of gracing any runway or fashion launch.
Thanks to the smooth, clean cut they can provide, these machines excel when presented with knitted goods and knitwear, as well as linings and other materials that can fray easily or generate a build-up of fluff.
They are equally beneficial for those who are manufacturing upholstered furniture and mattresses, being more than capable of cutting both upholstery and diol fabrics. They often, therefore, find a home in felt, blanket, carpet and bodywork factories, as well as in places where cotton wool and dressing material is the production output.
A powerful rotating blade combines with knife-edged joints, fitted to the base plate, to deliver the desired clothes cutting results. An integrated grinding device resharpens the blade, to keep it keen and ready for cutting action, but steel blades, with a higher service life, can be supplied for extreme loads.
Similarly, these rotating blade machines can be adapted to cut both plastic and rubber materials, simply by fitting them with a four-arc knife and counter-blade. In such cases, a half-speed or multiple-speed motor is recommended and the machine can also be fitted with a blade damping (dampening?) device, to prevent it becoming encrusted in cutting residues.
Safety is also not overlooked. A finger-guard protects the operator during cloth cutting, preventing injuries and accidents.
Straight-Knife Cloth Cutters
Whether you are engaged day-to-day in pattern making, or having to cut multiple-layered fabrics, straight-knife cloth cutters, offering cutting heights between 70 and 210mm, are ideal for your cutting operations. These cloth cutting machines suit all materials with a flexible surface structure, including textiles, knitwear and knitted goods, technical textiles and special materials such as films and branded films, felt, Skai and soft, premium leathers.
These cloth cutters are masters at keeping to the curves and cut layers cleanly, with no risk of fraying, right down to the very bottom layer.
With a narrow and low construction, the operator can benefit from the good blade visibility afforded, using this to enhance their craftsmanship still further.
Technically, there are other things that assist. A special coating helps an unusually even and exact blade, which is sharpened on both sides as it is lifted up and down, glide through materials more easily and also assists with wear resistance. Optimal configuration of a sliding handle, carrying handle and presser handle, as well as the on/off switch and sharpening tool, also create other benefits. Careful balancing makes the machines easy to manage and operators quickly regard them as an integral part of, and accessory to, their craftsmanship.
There is also great peace of mind in knowing that it is impossible for the grinding equipment drive to be damaged, should the grinding attachment come up against an obstacle such as a layer of material.
