Product Details

  • Electric Power Clamping: Generates over 3000 lbs (1,360 kg) of clamping force
  • Independent Clamping Function: Allows for a "clamp only" operation
  • Electric Powered Backgauge: Controlled by the electronic console with handwheel for micro adjustments
  • 3" Lighted LCD Display: Displays backguague location with +/-0.01" (+/-0.1mm) backgauge accuracy - provides for easier operator interface, higher productivity, and easier repeatable accuracy than a hard to read indicator on a scale as is used with other brands.
  • Programmable: Operator friendly software uses soft key menu prompts for easy programming. During a program the 3" LCD displays up to 5 consecutive cuts to aid the operator in navigating a job.
  • Program Memory: 20 programs with 20 cuts per program
  • Automatic Pushout Safety Feature: Backgauge automatically pushes stock out from under the clamping area before moving to a longer cut dimension.
  • Laser Red LED Cut Line Light: produces a bright easy to see cut line.
  • Safe: two-hand push button controls and front and rear table safety shields.
  • Auto-Releasing Front Safety Shield: automatically pops open after each cut cycle is completed. This unique benefit eliminates the need for the operator to manually lift the front shield in order to retrieve or adjust the stock after a cut providing increased productivity and operator ease-of-use.
  • Durable: Heavy-Duty steel, cast iron, and cast aluminum construction gives the cutter "Challenge" durability.
  • Maintenance Free: the LED cut-line light and UHMW Gibs result in the SPARTAN 185 being virtually maintenance-free with lifetime durability. UHMW Gibs on front and back of knife bar require zero maintenance and have lifetime durability. It also eliminates lubricant on knife bar that can spoil stock.
  • Included: 1 stand, 2 high speed steel knives, 3 plastic cutting sticks, 1 jogging aid, 1 tool kit, 1 operations manual, and 1 knife change safety holder assembly.

We took a look at this machine to see what special features it has and how it rates on a scale of 1 to 10. Here's what we found out.

  • The 185AEP can cut up to 3 inches of paper at once, which is more than 500 sheets. There's 500 sheets of paper in a ream, so essentially you're going to be able to slice through an entire ream plus some extra sheets in just a few seconds.

  • This device can cut paper that's up to 18.5" wide, so you'll be able to work with a lot of different sizes of paper. There's ample space in both in front of and behind the blade, so you'll have a lot of work room.

  • The 185AEP has an electric clamp that can provide over 3,000 pounds of pressure. This will definitely keep your paper aligned so you end up with an accurate cut. There's also an LED cutting line that glows red so you can see where your sheets will be cut before actually lowering the blade.

  • This machine has a backgauge that's controlled by an electronic console located at the front of the device. There's also a hand-wheel you can use if you want to make minor adjustments. You can also program up to 20 cuts into the machine for your convenience.

  • When you operate this machine, you have to use two hands to control it. This is a good safety feature because it ensures your hands won't come into contact with the blade. Also, both the front and rear tables have safety shields on them for your protection. The front shield will even pop up once trimming is done to help you save time.

  • This cutter is extremely durable because it's been made out of a number of different metals including steel and cast iron. You can expect to be able to use this machine for a number of years without any problem. It comes with a one-year warranty.

  • The 185AEP is a large device that has dimensions of 52.75" (height) x 32.25" (width) x 41" (length). It's pretty heavy as well, weighing in at 700 pounds. Luckily, it comes with a stand that's equipped with casters so it can be moved around. The stand even has a storage shelf.
