Tamerica Guillo-max Guillotine Stack Paper Cutter Demo Video

Transcript :

Welcome to MyBinding video. This is a look at the Guillo-Max guillotine stack paper cutter by Tamerica. Heavy-duty, sharp, and capable, the Guillo-Max is a great machine. Plenty of measuring graphs at the top of the machine allow you to align your papers perfectly and a very maneuverable fence allows you to make perfect edges every time. The paper holder clamps down with great force but little effort on your part. The unlocking lever holds one hand completely away from the blade while the other brings it down. It's as safe as it is sharp. Large jobs are no problem for the Guillo-Max. It is capable of cutting up to 360 sheets of 20lb paper in one trim. The design on both the paper holder and the blade itself allow for much work to happen with little effort. Seemingly the Guillo-Max will cut just about anything. That's the Guillo-Max by Tamerica.

needs better clamping

This gets the job done, but I've struggled with it. You need to put force on the clamping bar at the same time you cut, so it's a two handed operation. It takes serious force to keep the paper from slipping (maybe less of an issue for the men?). I found it helps to NOT push the top edge of the paper against the machine guide. There is a gap between the clamp bar and the top which will cause wrinkling of the top few pages. Keep the entire length of the paper under the clamp and it works much better. The adjustable guide is also a hassle - it will not be parallel to the blade on it's own. Use a right angle ruler on the back side. I've also cut heavy chipboard to my normal cut lengths to use as a tool for setup. Lower the blade, push the chipboard up against it, then use this to set the adjustable guide. It's much more accurate than the ruler printed on the machine.

Quality is good

Probably need to attach a helpful cutting guide

Great design in STEEL

A truly industrial paper cutter. Works as advertised immediately. Precise, rugged and efficient. Great design in STEEL. The clamping system, Blade and Blade articulation systems are superb. A plethora of adjustments are precise and straightforward. An industrial strength tool for our shop.

Reviewing the New Guillomax Heavy Duty Stack Cutter

This past year, Tamerica Products International introduced the new Guillomax Paper Cutter. The Guillomax Guillotine cutter has the ability to cut up to 360 sheets of paper like butter. Although it can’t quite cut through a full ream of paper and thus isn’t a true ream cutter, the Guillomax has many of the same great features as many of the ream cutters available on the market. The amazing thing about the Guillomax however, is that it is priced at half the price of most other ream cutters and stack cutters on the market. Here is a quick overview of the pros and cons of the Guillomax cutter:

Pros

Construction: The Guillomax is extremely well built. The body of the cutter is made from heavy duty powder coated steel. The cutter includes an ultra sharp blade, heavy duty metal handle and all the tools you need for changing the blade.
Leverage: With the long handle of the Guillomax, cutting through 360 sheets of paper is literally like cutting through butter. With our demo unit we were also able to easily cut through poly, clear covers and cover stock with no problem whatsoever.
Safety: The Guillomax guillotine cutter includes a shield to help prevent users from getting their hands under the blade and also includes a locking mechanism for two handed cutting operation.
The Blade: The Guillomax includes an ultra sharp hardened steel blade that is designed to easily handle your cutting needs. This blade can be easily removed and sharpened (by a professional sharpening service) and replacement blades can easily be obtained when needed.
Pressure Bar: One complaint about many stack cutters and ream cutters is that they don’t adequately hold the material being cut in place. The Guillomax includes a heavy duty pressure bar for holding materials in place when cutting. This pressure bar is operated by a separate handle on the unit and is easy to engage and release
Stand: One great thing about the Guillomax Cutter is that it can be used on a tabletop or can be purchased with an optional stand that will make cutting even easier. The short stand for the Guillomax paper cutter is designed to provide the user with plenty of leverage to cut even the most difficult to cut materials.

Cons

After using the Guillomax Paper cutter for several months, there is really only one con that I have found. The design of the paper stop on the Guillomax allows it to pivot and can make it extremely difficult to square up the cutter. I found it helpful to use a small framing square to ensure that the paper stop was at a perfect 90 degree angle to the blade. Many more expensive stack cutters and ream cutters on the market have back gauges that are fixed at a 90 degree angle to the cutting blade. However, these units start at 2-3 times the price of the Guillomax.

Summary:

As you can see, the Guillomax paper cutter has some amazing features and it’s price point definitely makes it a winner. The Guillomax is ideal for Schools, Churches, Businesses and small Print Shops. However, it does take a little bit of work to make sure that your cuts are square and perfect. Even so, it is by far the best cutter in its price class and I would highly recommend it.
