Global Cutting Technologies Ltd

Log Slitting, Strip Cutting and Guillotining Machines

To augment the die cutting, water jet and CNC knife cutting ranges, and in response to customer demand, GCT has range built a comprehensive selection of slitting, strip cutting, log slitting, guillotining and sheeting equipment.

These machines find many applications in the gasket, tape, leather, rubber, plastic, foam and felt industries.

Machines include models which use rotary blades cutting against a polypropylene bottom roller and have an open ended construction to allow the processing of materials which are wider than the machine frame.

For heavy duty or thick materials a ‘closed’ end version is available for extra strength and rigidity.

Automatic systems can slit and guillotine roll fed materials or sheet off (guillotine) only onto collection tables or stacker units.

Where materials can be cut in coil or roll form without the need for unreeling, automatic log slitting machines are available.

These versatile systems can be pre-programmed with job details and characteristics including the cut product width, number of passes, lubrication cycle, blade regrind cycle.

The powered rotary blade cuts through the material and core, leaving the slit product available to be removed in a complete coil, either as a finished tape, or for subsequent feeding and cutting, usually through a kiss cutting system.
