This Polar 92 XT is a guillotine — a paper-cutting machine, also commonly known as a guillotine cutter or paper cutter — used in print finishing operations to trim, stack, and cut sheets of paper, card, and similar materials to precise dimensions. Polar is a well-established German manufacturer with a long-standing reputation in the graphic arts and printing industries, where its guillotines are widely regarded as a benchmark for accuracy and reliability.
This example was built in 2005 and is offered in used condition from a seller based in France. The machine is equipped with an air table, which uses a cushion of air to float and move heavy paper stacks across the surface with minimal effort and reduced risk of damage to the substrate — a significant practical advantage when handling large or heavy lifts. Two side tables are also included, extending the working area on either side of the machine and providing additional support for incoming and outgoing material during the cutting cycle.
The listing notes that two knives are included with the machine, giving the new owner a spare blade from the outset and reducing downtime associated with blade changes. Safety is addressed through the presence of photo cells, which form a protective light barrier in front of the cutting zone and halt machine operation if the beam is interrupted, in line with standard press-room safety practice. The machine also comes with a programmable control system, allowing cutting sequences to be stored and recalled, which supports efficient, repeatable production runs without the need to reset measurements manually between jobs.
