Manual sample punch for tissue and thinnest materials to determine their grammage. A sample of 100 cm² is punched and weighed. The value is converted to g/m². The knife set has to be exactly adjusted to the material. This is of high importance to obtain least tolerances. When ordering, please indicate that the punch is used for tissue materials.

Special double blade cutter for thinnest papers and foils

The double blade cutter CUT7 cuts paper from 8g/m² up and is used for thinnest papers (8-30g/m²). It can also be used for very thin foils and aluminum foils. A cutting guard prevents injuries and additionally clamps the paper so that a straight and parallel cut is performed and the material does not slip.

–

A quarter rotation of the crank moves four special blades to cut a round sample. Secure grips ensure exceptional levels of safety. The manual circular cutter is supplied with a cutting mat.

The punch for preparing samples for grammage, Elmendorf, twin folding or bending tests is a robust table device that operates according to the ‘punch & die’ principle. The punching is pneumatic and happens at the touch of a button. To prevent injury a safety guard is attached around the punching unit. Below the punching tool there is a sample drawer, from which the samples can be removed.

With its fixed side guide, the universal sample strip cutter is used to cut sample strips of up to 100 mm. The integrated clamping mechanism ensures that the sample does not slip during cutting. A safety guard is attached in front of the blade.

The width of the side guide can be individually chosen up to 100mm depending on the material that needs to be cut.

Common widths are: 10mm / 15mm / 50mm

–

The universal sample strip cutter is suited to cutting different widths of sample strip due to its variable side guide. The integrated clamping mechanism ensures that the sample does not slip during cutting. A safety guard is attached in front of the blade.

–

The double blade cutter allows sample strips of a width of 12.7 or 15.0 mm to be cut. The V-shaped cut guarantees a parallel cut. A safety guard prevents injury, and also holds the paper securely to prevent it from slipping during cutting.
