Device ClassificationHeavy-duty desktop manual mechanical guillotine ream cutter.
Chassis EngineeringSolid industrial-grade cast-iron base plate with a reinforced solid steel handle framework.
Primary ApplicationsSlicing complete reams of paper, trimming book edges for binding, square-cutting stacks of business cards, sizing heavy cardstocks, and bulk booklet fabrication.
Ecosystem ConfigurationShips as a fully assembled, heavy-duty tabletop unit containing the grid base, an extended high-leverage cutting arm, a pre-installed hardened carbon-steel blade, a safety shield, and a heavy rotary clamping wheel mechanism.
Print Specifications (Force & Shearing Metrics)
Operating MechanismDirect downward-stroke mechanical hand lever utilizing a high-leverage pivot design.
Throughput Output CapacityDependent on operator physical handling speed; built to slice whole paper blocks effortlessly in a single, fluid motion.
Cutting Edge FinishHigh-precision shearing action that stamps out completely clean, square, and burr-free edges across the entire stack depth without tearing lower pages.
Force DeliveryLeverages the mechanical weight of the heavy steel arm to cleanly bite through maximum thickness thresholds with minimal human exertion.
Scan Specifications (Visual Alignment Guides)
Vision & Alignment SystemsNone (Zero electronic sensors, lasers, or cameras).
Target Layout PositioningFeatures a pre-printed, crisp grid matrix baked onto the metal base plate.
Paper Handling (Material Feed & Tolerances)
Maximum Trimming Width310 mm to 315 mm (12.20 to 12.40 inches) maximum length, natively clearing standard A4 document widths and vertical letter-sheet paths.
Maximum Stack Processing CapacityTrims up to 500 sheets of standard 70gsm–80gsm copy paper simultaneously in a single stroke.
Maximum Block Thickness DepthNatively accepts paper reams and book blocks up to 40 mm (approx. 1.57 inches) thick.
Media Feeding ModeManual hand-guided paper loading backed by an adjustable sliding block back-gauge fence that locks tightly via a thumb screw.
Mechanical Paper ClampFeatures a top-mounted, heavy rotating hand-wheel baffle system that lowers a thick metal bar to press down flat on the ream, preventing the pages from shifting, sliding, or fanning out under blade pressure.
