Universal Cutting Tool (UCT) for Flatbed Digital Cutting System

Flatbed Digital Cutting System Universal Cutting Tool (UCT)

Product Overview：

The Universal Cutting Tool (UCT) is a highly cost-effective drag knife solution designed for flatbed digital cutting systems. It supports a wide range of blade styles, enabling efficient cutting of various soft to semi-rigid materials up to 6 mm thickness.

Compared with motor-driven cutting tools, the UCT offers faster cutting speeds, lower purchase cost, and minimal maintenance, making it an ideal choice for high-volume production and budget-conscious manufacturers.

Cutting Performance & Design：

The UCT uses drag knife technology to achieve maximum processing speed while maintaining excellent cutting accuracy.
A spring-loaded glide shoe ensures stable material contact, prevents material lifting, and enables clean cutting of fine details.

For applications requiring fixed cutting depths—such as cutting printing blankets or coating materials—a fixed glide shoe can be optionally installed.
