Thanks to Schechtl’s synchronised eccentric lever drive and the automatic rubber-lined clamping bar, the sheet cannot slip. The blade drops perfectly square every single time, yielding a factory-clean, burr-free edge that requires zero secondary grinding or deburring before it goes to the folding machine.

Manual back gauge, 750 mm, adjustable via wheel from the rear of the machine.
- Milled grooves every 10 mm along the front table, parallel to the blades for easy positioning.
