The software also integrates with MIS and prepress systems to create and load customized cut programs for each job on demand. In terms of the animation, the company was the first on the market with this kind of software.

"Scissor Hands looks at the job that needs to be cut, figures out the best way to cut that job, and then programs the cutter," explains Heap. "And now it can run on multiple devices including slitters, diecutters, laser cutters, and of course the guillotine cutter."
