Important Parameters for Paper Cutters
When choosing a cutter, think about what you'll be cutting and how much. Then you will know the capacity and length of cut that your cutter should handle.
Cutting Capacity
This specifies the maximum number of papers the cutter can handle at one time. With a rotary cutter, you can process a larger amount of paper than with a rotary.
Cutting Length
The cut length value indicates the maximum possible paper width for the cutter. While cutting material with a width of up to 460mm is ok with a lever cutter, a rotary cutter allows for materials with a maximum width of 320mm.
Some cutters have a self-sharpening blade that makes them maintenance-free. The blade sharpens itself on the metal edge of the cutting pad while cutting paper.
