This Polar 78 ED is a guillotine — also known as a guillotine cutter or paper cutter — a precision cutting machine used in print finishing to trim stacks of paper, card, and other sheet materials to exact dimensions. Polar is a well-established German manufacturer specialising in guillotines and paper-handling equipment, widely regarded in the commercial printing and finishing industries for the accuracy and reliability of its cutting systems.
This particular machine is equipped with the Polar ED control system and offers a cutting width of 78 cm. It is fitted with an air table, which lifts the paper stack on a cushion of air to allow smooth and effortless positioning, and is accompanied by side tables that extend the working surface and help support larger format material during the cutting process.
The usable format area — the effective table surface available for positioning and handling material — measures 72 by 87 cm, providing ample room for a wide range of standard and larger sheet formats. The table height is continuously adjustable between 86 and 95 cm, allowing operators to set a comfortable and ergonomic working position without the need for fixed-height compromises.
Also included as an option with this listing is a Polar RB 2 jogger, an accessory used to align and square paper stacks before cutting, which helps ensure clean and accurate results throughout production runs. The machine was manufactured in 2003, is offered in used condition, and is currently located in Germany.
