This Ideal 4700 is a guillotine — a manually operated paper cutting machine, also known as a paper cutter or stack cutter — used in print shops, binderies, and office environments to make precise straight cuts through stacks of paper, card, and similar sheet materials. Ideal is a well-established German manufacturer with a long history of producing professional cutting equipment for the printing and graphic arts industries.
This particular machine is a manual guillotine mounted on a stand, making it a freestanding unit suited to workshop or production-floor use. It has been fitted with a new blade, which is a meaningful detail for a cutter of this type, as blade condition directly determines cut quality and the force required to operate the machine. The cutting width is 470 mm and the cutting height — the maximum stack thickness the machine can handle in a single pass — is 80 mm, giving it a solid capacity for everyday cutting tasks in a small-to-medium print or finishing operation.
The machine dates from 2014 and is offered in used condition from Belgium, with the seller noting that it works perfectly. It is priced at $890.
