Straight blades and guillotine knives are specified around the material, cutting motion, supported length, machine interface and required edge condition. MEIRENTE reviews non-standard dimensions from an approved drawing or sample.
Straight knives can be used for cross cutting, cutoff, guillotine cutting, trimming and sheet conversion. The correct geometry depends on whether the material is supported, compressed, moving continuously or cut in a single stroke.
Overall length, width, thickness, hole pattern, mounting face, bevel direction and operating load should be confirmed together. These details determine fit and help avoid deflection, chipping and incomplete cuts.
A drawing or measured sample should define critical dimensions, tolerances, material, hardness, edge finish and marking requirements before production and repeat orders.
For a custom review, send the drawing or sample dimensions together with the machine and application details you already have. Final specifications are confirmed before production.

Straight blades and guillotine knives are specified around the material, cutting motion, supported length, machine interface and required edge condition. MEIRENTE reviews non-standard dimensions from an approved drawing or sample.
Confirm overall length, width, thickness and straightness requirement; hole pattern, slots, mounting face and bevel direction; workpiece, thickness, cutting motion and current defect. Include the required quantity and any current cutting defect when available.
