IDEAL THE 68

The IDEAL 68 Paper Guillotine is one of the latest next-generation programmable powered guillotines, designed to provide increased efficiency and productivity by working smarter.

The IDEAL 68 employs the latest technology to provide a fully configured commercial print guillotine for the B3 and digital print market.  The IDEAL 68 includes a fully hydraulic operational clamp.

An integrated foot pedal provides pre clamping, while the IR Safety Curtain takes care of the safety functions along side the new IDEAL Guillotines Easy Cut trigger paddles that require two handed operation.  A clear red LED cutting line indicator also comes as standard to ensure that cutting takes place where required.  It adds up to a highly versatile machine capable of a with a wide range of print work and material types.

Operation and programme control via
15.6“ touchscreen display. Intuitive software with comprehensive features and
operation via touch and swipe gestures – just like a tablet or smartphone.

Why Buy? For Business Owners

The IDEAL 68 is a highly flexible guillotine able to take on all types of work thanks to the hydraulic operation and clamping system more commonly associated with much larger guillotines.  Productivity is enhanced through programming of the jobs via the integrated 15.6 inch touch screen display.  The IR Safety Curtain removes obstacles from the work area and speeds up the productivity by over 20% against a traditionally guarded guillotine. The eject function is used to push paper forwards and remove the need to place arms or fingers near or under the blade when retrieving trimmed work. There are also optional side tables on the front to ensure your work is kept absolutely square before, during and after cutting is complete. A diagnostic system shows error messages to help pin point faults that need attention.

Why Buy? For Operators

The hydraulic control system which integrates the hydraulic clamp on the IIDEAL 68 provides absolute control over the stack position during cutting.  The optical Red LED cutting indicators ensure that the blade will fall exactly where required while the adjustable hydraulic clamp pressure ensures even the most delicate stocks are cut without damage.  Side lays on the front and rear tables ensure the cutting position is accurate, square and ultimately precise.  Back gauge movement is automated in program mode enabling swift movement between cut dimensions and further enhancing productivity. A manually operated and infinitely adjustable hand wheel provides control over the back gauge when not in program mode. Cut accuracy is 0.1 mm thanks to the digital measuring scale. Also available as the LT model which adds a full air bed on both the front and rear tables, easing movement of heavy paper stocks around the work area.
