Keencut 18 Inch (46 cm) Flexo Plate Cutter Series 2 - FPC18 For narrow web printers (Old Part # 61906)

The safer, faster, and more accurate way to cut flexographic plates

With the Flexo Plate Cutter, you can accurately pre-cut flexo on the flat.

By using the sightline strip you can precisely align to your target marks for the first and second cut – there is no need to cut flexo on the round. There is less chance of costly mistakes, which often result in production downtime and the need to re-schedule work. You will quickly create seamless splices every time and save both time and money.

The cutter is also intuitive to use and with a little training and practice, precise flexo cutting is achievable by all operators.

The dual cutter head gives the option of creating a beveled overlapping join, or alternatively a 5° undercut, so both plate edges meet perfectly when applied to the roller. The perfect join prevents ink traps or any deterioration of the adhesive.

The Flexo Plate Cutter is specially designed to ensure your safety and increase production.

Perfect accuracy for tight joins

The design gives a lifetime of straight, precision-accurate, silent cutting. The cutting head features a set of built-in self-aligning ball-bearing rollers operating on twin steel tracks. There is zero play on the cutting head sliding action and the base is constructed of heavy-duty, one-piece aluminum extrusion for complete stability. The precision accuracy produces seamless splices and eliminates costly mistakes, whilst the 5-degree undercut creates a tight join when the flexo is attached to the cylinder.

Bevel & 5° undercut cutting head

The spring-loaded bevel and 5° undercut blade holder feature ball and thrust bearings for perfect alignment and superb blade control. The cutting head is mounted on two stainless steel tracks and hardened steel ball track rollers. All combined, they work together to give the ultimate in blade control.

Safety by design

The Flexo Plate Cutter ensures your safety and removes the dangerous practice of cutting flexo by hand with a knife. Magnetic blade cartridges make switching between different thicknesses of the plate a safe, simple, and quick process. Everything has been designed to ensure your safety.

Simple operation

You can have various blade depths pre-set within different cartridges, so a precise and repeatable cut can be made by simply switching to a new cartridge. You can be confident of getting the right cut the first time, every time, and eliminating variability. The maximum blade depth for the bevel blade is 5 mm (3/16 Inch), the 5° undercut blade fitted with a trapezoidal blade is 10mm (3/8 Inch) and the rectangular blade is 8 mm (5/16 Inch). Simple color coding makes it easy to identify and calibrate the pre-set depths.

Ergonomically designed cutting head

The sculpted cutting head makes the Flexo Plate Cutter easy to use over long periods and is suitable for operation by left or right-handed users. A smooth sliding action provides precise cutting with no discernible friction.
