About the Grafcut Guillotine G73
The Grafcut G73H is the flagship model in the Grafcut range of paper guillotines and incorporates fully hydraulic operation and a raft of professional features. This model is the perfect solution for the digital printer who requires an industrial guillotine with a wider cutting capacity for those larger sheets sizes often used with the higher volume digital print engines.
The Grafcut G73H is built on the same platform as the Electro-Mechanically Driven Grafcut G73 and offers the same class leading cutting capabilities with effortless trimming of stacks up to 100 mm (approx. 1,000 sheets) in sizes up to B1 (707 x 1,000 mm). However, this is where the similarities end between the G73 and G73H. These two models are very different machines with the H model not only incorporating industrial grade hydraulics but also a wide array of extra features. These include, a fully programmable air table for easy movement of larger materials, full visual diagnostics of sensors and electronic components (Instant Isolation of any potential issues), password protection for the operating screen to secure the operation (perfect when the machine is in an open area) daily and total cut counters and a USB 3.0 port for instant on demand software upgrades and additions. Lastly the G73H also incorporates a Hydraulically Powered foot treadle operated clamp, ideal for pre-clamping awkward stocks or even just using as a spine press.
As with the other models in the Grafcut range the G73H incorporates solid steel blade carriers with fully adjustable blade guides to guarantee longevity of service. Unlike similar products from other manufacturers the blade guides can also be replaced should they become worn over an extended period, this further protects your investment and gives you a very reliable product. This all adds up to a versatile guillotine that meets all your cutting needs.
The Grafcut G73H sets the standard that all other guillotines are judged within the Digital Print market.

Why Buy the Grafcut G73H Guillotine? For Operators
The integrated programmable air table makes working with the latest heavy and often awkward digital stocks effortless, while programmable control and rapid back gauge movement make cutting complex jobs straightforward. Furthermore, the programmable Air Bed is designed to act in unison with the job, only activating when the cutting process is complete which eradicates any movement in the sheet during the cutting process. All job settings can be stored for recall and named using the full qwerty keyboard function for instant and easy recall of repeat work, no more guessing which number equals which job.
For delicate stocks the fully hydraulically operated clamp can be adjusted via the front mounted and calibrated hydraulic flow valve, combine this with the false clamp plate and you can guarantee every stock type can be handled with ease and without damage. An optical Red LED cutting guide ensures that the stack is correctly lined up before cutting and can be used to program the machine for quick and easy job creation. The electronic hand wheel offers precision control over the back gauge movement whilst the swing cut action is gentler on the paper to give a true clean cut.
