Straight Knife Cutting Machines
Straight blades are designed to be fitted to straight knife cutting machines, which are one of the most popular cutting machines due to their versatility. Within this industry, they typically offer the widest variety of sizes and blade speeds. The blade has a straight edge that can vary from coarse to fine, depending on the type of material or fabric being cut. They are also able to cut within plastic and recycling machines within the waste industry, as well as for newsprint folder jaws and paper processing machines within the print publishing industry.
Straight Blade Structure
The straight blade is held in place vertically by an upright stand on a base plate. The machine also consists of a motor and a handle for moving assembly, as well as a sharpening device. The machine uses a combination of motor power and operator power, with a greater blade movement resulting in a faster cut.
Straight Blade Features
Straight blades are often used for mass trimming of materials such as cotton, wool, linen leather, chemical fibre goods and more. They offer neat cutting with a small curvature radius for curvilinear cutting. Cutting machines with straight blades also benefit from low levels of noise production, and being easy to operate with high efficiency means it is stable to run. As they can be incorporated with an auto knife-grinding device, it’s easy to operate, with minimal downtime.
