ProductDescription

The Formax Cut-True 31H Hydraulic Guillotine Paper Cutter is engineered for high-volume, two-shift operation with a hydraulic blade and clamp drive, delivering precise cutting of paper stacks up to 4" high and 28" wide. It features a color touchscreen control panel with automated back gauge positioning, 100-job memory, foot-pedal pre-clamp, bright LED cutting line, internal cutting-area light, and 0.1mm cutting accuracy for consistent, professional results. Operators benefit from an anti-friction air-assist ball deck and extra-large side tables for smooth handling of large sheets, as well as adjustable hydraulic clamp pressure and a removable false clamp to protect delicate stock and reduce minimum cut length. Safety is prioritized with dual-button controls, infrared safety curtain, blade lock, key lock, automatic blade return, blade-change safety tool, and a wooden paper push for safe alignment. Designed for print shops and in-plant finishing, the Cut-True 31H delivers durability, precision, and maximum productivity and replacement blades and cutting sticks are available as accessories to maintain peak cutting performance.
