Frequently Asked Questions

The CardMac Plus produces over 30 cards per minute and handles cardstock up to 350 gsm, which covers most standard business card weights in a compact footprint. The CardMac Pro steps up to over 50 cards per minute with an LCD control panel for micro-adjustments and multiple memory settings, which matters more for shops running frequent, varied card jobs rather than occasional short runs. The Pro's price reflects that added speed and control, so a shop doing occasional in-house cards will likely find the Plus sufficient, while a copy center or print shop running daily card jobs will get more practical value from the Pro's speed and memory features. For a wider comparison across brands, business card cutters covers the full range beyond just Akiles.

That depends entirely on your card design. If your background color or image runs to the very edge of the card with no white border, you need a full-bleed slitter, since a non-bleed model can leave a visible white edge or misaligned cut on bleed designs. If your cards have a clean white or light-colored border around the content, a non-bleed slitter will cut accurately without needing bleed-specific alignment. Checking your card template before buying prevents ending up with a slitter that can't handle your actual print files without a redesign.

Both Akiles models here use an automatic feed system that processes a full printed sheet into finished cards without the two-pass process some slitters require. That's a meaningful time saver if you're producing cards regularly, since a two-pass machine requires manually repositioning strips between the first and second cut. Single-pass, automatic-feed slitters like these reduce handling and the chance of misalignment between passes, which becomes more noticeable as job volume increases. For comparison against a two-pass alternative, Martin Yale business card slitters includes both single- and two-pass models at different price points.

The CardMac Plus is rated for cardstock up to 350 gsm, which covers the vast majority of standard and heavier business card stocks. Feeding paper significantly lighter or heavier than the rated range can cause misfeeds, uneven cuts, or added wear on the cutting mechanism over time. If your print shop regularly runs specialty stocks outside the typical weight range, checking the exact rated capacity against your heaviest and lightest stock choices before committing to a specific model avoids ordering equipment that can't handle your full product line.

For businesses printing cards regularly, in-house slitting after digital printing usually pays for itself through faster turnaround and lower per-card cost once volume is high enough to offset the equipment cost. For occasional or one-off card runs, outsourcing may still be more economical since a slitter sitting idle most of the year doesn't generate savings. Corporate offices producing employee ID or contact cards in batches, and copy centers offering same-day card service, tend to see the fastest payback. If your shop needs more than just card slitting, cutters covers related finishing equipment worth considering alongside a slitter purchase.
