About Grafcut Guillotine G52H

The professional Grafcut G52H is a feature-packed, fully hydraulic, programmable guillotine. Capable of cutting the full range of materials in sizes up to B3. Full hydraulically powered operation of both the knife and clamp ensure effortless cutting performance. Even on the most difficult stock with adjustable clamping pressures for delicate media. An Integrated 175mm Colour Touch Screen Controller incorporating operator prompts and a pop-up qwerty keyboard makes for easy and smooth operation. A fully programmable back gauge, optical cutting indication via a clear RED Laser Emitter, and electronically controlled paper push function with manual fine positioning, all make the Grafcut G52H an exceptionally highly productive package.

Safety is assured thanks to the IR Safety Curtain technology from SICK and true two-handed operation via a SICK Safety Controller. Error messaging, adjustable side lay guides and the market-leading safety functions further enhance the guillotine’s appeal as a production machine.

Why Grafcut?

Grafcut Guillotines integrate cutting edge technology with state of the art electronic componentry with the incorporation of Delta PLC Controllers, SICK Safety Systems & Omron Electronics, all of which are compliant to the very latest developments in EN Standards and CE Compliance.

All models incorporate an intuitive colour touch screen display with pop-up qwerty keyboard for descriptive naming of stored work, a self-diagnostic system to pin points any faults, eject functions, pre-clamping modes and adjustable clamping pressures to offer an efficient and accurate operation ensuring that the guillotine is not a business bottleneck.

This is all backed up by a Market Leading 2 Year Manufacturer Warranty.
