Cutting Tool
Guillotine-quality cutting on your folding machine, single slitting, double-cutting, edge-trimming and kiss-cutting from one device, to a standard usually seen only on a paper guillotine.
Inline slitting, double-cutting, edge-trimming and kiss-cutting of folding-machine work, clean, accurate cuts the full length of the sheet.

The problem
The problem we solve
Inline slitting, trimming and cutting on a folding machine usually means living with poor OEM cutting wheels that tear rather than cut, blades that go blunt or snap mid-run, or sending the work out to be guillotined, adding cost, handling and delay to every job.
Why the OEM way fails
Why the standard factory method falls short
Razor-sharp slitting, double-cutting and edge-trimming that out-performs other rotary methods many times over, and cutting blades made to last up to five times longer than the versions other manufacturers offer.
How it works
How the Cutting Tool works
Cutting uses a Scissor-Action design with double-sided, hardened cutting bosses that self-sharpen during production, so the cut reaches the standard usually only seen on a paper guillotine, and stays there. A waste guide deflects trims smoothly and stops them wrapping around the machine.
What you get
Every Cutting Tool delivers
- Guillotine-quality cutting: slit, double-cut, edge-trim and kiss-cut from one device
- Scissor-Action, self-sharpening bosses for a cut that stays sharp
- Blades last up to five times longer than ordinary versions
- Clean waste handling: waste guide and gripper band keep trims clear
- Keeps cutting in house: no outsourcing or separate guillotine pass
Guillotine-quality single slitting, run the cutting boss against the flat side of the full cutting blade for a clean, straight slit.
Super-quality double-cutting, fit the special waste guide between the cutting bosses to deflect the centre trim smoothly and efficiently.
Perfectly straight, trouble-free edge-trimming, fit the blue waste-gripper band and the waste guide so trims clear cleanly and the edge stays even.
Kiss-cutting that penetrates only halfway through the sheet, set the shallow blade so it cuts the face stock and leaves the backing, for labels and peel-off work.
Blades that last and don't break, cutting blades last up to five times longer than other manufacturers' versions, and the hardened bosses self-sharpen during production.

What printers say
“Just a line to say we have done two jobs using the CP Applicator. Delighted! Saved 15 hours work on the Heidelberg cylinder between them, and it frees up a man.”
“We have just completed our second job with the Micro-Perforator and have already recovered the cost we paid for it. Now we can complete work quicker, with superior results than previously, and with a lot more control.”
