This Keencut Evolution3 E3FH160 FreeHand 64" Cutter Bar is a portable cutter for accurate, occasional cutting in a studio or workshop environment for media up to 64" wide. It is guaranteed to cut within .008" of a straight line for the length of the cut. The site line strip enables operators to see exactly where the cut line is. The stainless steel slideway track and rollers on the QuikSwap tool heads provide a very strong and steady movement up and down the machine, with very little sideways motion that could misalign the cut. Plus, the anti-sag system holds the cutter bar level for accurate line-up. This Keencut Evolution3 64" FreeHand Cutter Bar is perfect for cutting up to 1/2" thick materials such as foam boards, banners, corrugated plastic, paper, tissue, card, fabric & textiles, inkjet media, pvc booard (up to 10mm thick),and acrylic (score & snap up to 1/4"). Keencut’s new Evolution3 Rocker tool head is a general-purpose cutting head. It has an ergonomic design which follows the natural curvature of your hand and offers maximum comfort for all-day cutting. The Rocker tool head will cut materials such as banners, cardboard and foamboard up to 10mm (3/8″).

Single-handed, fast accurate alignment Two unique features enable single-handed, fast and accurate alignment of all materials irrespective of thickness. The anti-sag mechanism means the cutter bar can be suspended exactly parallel to the media surface over the whole length of the cut with zero sag, even on the longest sized cutter. |
Guaranteed accuracy The Evolution3 is the most accurate cutter of its type on the market and is guaranteed to cut within 0.2mm (0.008") of a straight line for the full length of the cut. The in-built ultra-high precision accuracy, combined with the perfect alignment made possible using the sightline strip, means every butt-jointed panel will join seamlessly. This ultra-high precision accuracy will save you time and money with less waste and fewer mistakes. |
Total stability The self-adjusting track roller system fitted to the QuikSwap tool heads provides a strong and smooth movement up and down the length of the cutter bar, with zero sideways movement to ensure a perfect straight line. This, coupled with rigid blade clamping, gives perfect blade control and spot-on accuracy, so less wastage and mistakes. |

Heavy duty reliability The entire Evolution3 range has been built to last, using high quality materials and well tested engineering principles. The cutting head bearing system and clamping are tough enough to keep perfect blade control, even with the most difficult of materials. Keencut makes the majority of components on its precision CNC machines, keeping tolerances and quality under constant control, assuring exceptional accuracy and total reliability |
Future proof and versatile QuikSwap tool heads The QuikSwap tool head family gives users the ultimate flexibility. Each tool is designed for a specific purpose, such as general cutting, creasing and fabric cutting and can be attached or detached from the cutter in seconds. You can mount single or multiple tool heads to suit your work. The Graphik tool head is supplied as standard with other optional QuikSwap tool heads available to extend your cutting capability. New tools are also being developed to meet emerging requirements. |
The versatile Rocker head The optional Rocker tool head is the latest addition to the QuikSwap range. It is a versatile general-purpose tool for cutting materials such as banners, cardboard and foamboard up to 10mm (3/8"). The ergonomic design follows the natural curvature of your hand and offers maximum comfort for everyday cutting. It also provides two-way cutting - pulling to cut lighter weight materials and pushing for those that require more effort. For those who occasionally cut aluminium composite panels, such as Dibond or Alupanel, the Rocker head can be fitted with the Tech-D.012 blade. The cutting technique requires a series of careful strokes and we advise that you watch our video guide to perfect your cutting action. |
