How many mounts per year are your Trucut machines capable of cutting?
Well obviously this depends upon the average size of the mounts and/or the complexity being
cut. But on average we would expect our Elan and Excel ranges to cut up to half a
million mounts per year and our Alpha range machines up to a million plus.
How long is your warranty?
Our machines are warranted for twelve months, parts and labour, excepting fair wear and
tear and/or misuse. This warranty is an unconditional twelve months and not limited by the
quantity of mounts/mats cut.
How long do the blades last?
The easiest way of answering this is to say that they last perhaps 10% longer than you
yourself would expect a blade used with a manual cutter to last. The slight improvement is
due to the even and consistent pressure that our Trucut machines apply with the blade when
cutting.
Can the Trucut machines cut Vee-Grooves in the same pass as the main cutting?
Yes! Single bladed Elans can cut bevel cut-outs, vee-grooves and bevel outers in the
same pass. Excel and Alpha machines can cut bevel cut-outs, vee-grooves and vertical outers
in the same pass. Up to three vee grooves can be cut and these may follow the opening
shape or be just a standard rectangular or elliptical path. In addition it is possible to
cut just vee-grooves or one open vee-groove associated with an opening.
