This Hunkeler RE – 320 VAR is a guillotine — sometimes referred to as a guillotine cutter or paper cutter — a type of machine used in print finishing and bindery operations to make precise straight cuts through stacks of paper, card, or similar sheet materials. Hunkeler is a Swiss manufacturer with a long-standing reputation in the printing and finishing industry, producing equipment for document processing, web finishing, and bindery applications.
This particular machine is a register punching unit with an integrated two-colour printing unit, making it suited to operations that require both cutting and register hole punching in a single workflow, with the added capability of printing in two colours as part of the same pass.
The cutting length is 320 mm and the cutting depth is 80 mm, with a maximum cutting thickness of 10 mm, meaning it handles stacks of moderate depth in a single stroke. The clamping thickness extends up to 50 mm, accommodating thicker lifts of material during the clamping and cutting cycle. The spine length reaches a maximum of 400 mm, which is relevant to book and document binding applications where spines of varying sizes need to be accommodated.
The machine operates at up to 70 strokes per minute, making it a relatively fast unit for its class. The tooling is configured at 90 degrees with a 1.5 mm radius, details that are important for buyers assessing compatibility with their existing tooling or the finish quality required for their production work.
Built in 1985, this is a used machine located in Germany.
