Looking for a small electric guillotine – advice please?

[David Hammond]

Not sure of that make. We have an ideal guillotine that is the same size as the model in your link.

We don’t have the numerical keypad we just wind the stop manually.

They’re very useful, I trimmed 100 stickers out today from our Roland using it.

Remember the H&S regulations associated with it, 6month service etc.

Depending on their warranty and how often you use it, it could be worth a go.

Looks like the posh version of my royal 450 which I have had for 5 years used most days

give me a ring

[David Rowland]

have a chat with the people who sharpen the blade, you be surprised how blunt they get if in daily use.

I remember the book printers and Silk screen Sticker company I worked, might be fortnight sharpening… something to take into consideration.

Thanks guys, sorry for the late reply, I’ll take you up on that Chris.

Just checking that you realise you wont be able to cut anything other than vinyl or paper on this type, no rigid materials, maybe thin PVC (1mm) but nothing thicker.

Not sure on H&S regulations though, we used to have 3 guillotines of different types and never had them inspected by anyone, just had a maintenance log for each. They were happy with that.
