Many digital printing practitioners are prone to ignore the use of paper cutter, paper cutter safety, is critical. Influence the safe use of paper cutting machine has the following aspects:

1, the brake device. Many manufacturers in order to save money, the use of circuit braking principle, that is, through the upper and lower limit sensors cut off the cutter motor power supply brakes, this device in a sudden power outage, loose sockets, sensors failures, etc., which may result in the “slippery knife” and other extremely dangerous conditions. In order to eliminate the occurrence of this situation, it is necessary to use the motor assembly with a mechanical brake device, so that no matter what happens to the circuit failure, the motor is holding dead, to avoid accidents.

2、Double button operation principle. This requires two buttons are pressed at the same time, otherwise the cutter motor will not act, which can ensure the safety of single-operator operation.

3, in the actual use of the process, often two people cooperate with the operation, so that the situation becomes dangerous, which requires the cutter configuration of the front and rear safety cover. When the safety cover is opened, the motor will not move to ensure safety.

4, the above is to influence the use of the process of safety factors, then in the maintenance, maintenance should pay attention to the replacement of the blade, the use of the knife holder, to ensure that the blade edge is closed, not only to ensure the safety of people, but also to ensure that the edge is not damaged.

5, furthermore, unloading the blade must not be arbitrarily shelved to avoid injury to people.

Therefore, first of all, we should purchase equipment with high safety factor, and then, we must develop good habits of use, so as to ensure safety at work.
