This Zechini Cimatic is a die cutter — a machine used to cut, crease, or score sheet materials to precise shapes using a cutting die — also commonly referred to as a platen press in bookbinding and print-finishing contexts. Zechini is an Italian manufacturer with a long-standing presence in bookbinding and print-finishing machinery, producing equipment for the graphic arts and packaging industries.
This particular machine dates from approximately 1970 and is offered in used condition from a seller based in the Netherlands, where it is available for immediate collection or shipment.
The key working specification noted is a material thickness capacity of up to 80 mm, which indicates the machine can handle relatively substantial board or book-block thicknesses. The unit features adjustable temperature control, allowing the operator to set the heat level to suit the material being processed — a function associated with joint or spine work where controlled heat is applied during the cutting or forming process. The machine is also noted as pneumatically operated, meaning the pressing action is driven by compressed air rather than a purely mechanical mechanism.
The machine is currently in stock and described as available direct.
