Tecnau Unveils the Cutter c7 for High-Quality Finishing
Tecnau introduces its new guillotine Cutter c7, engineered to meet the evolving demands of color inkjet finishing with versatility and precision.
Built on the long-established TC 7000 TS, the Cutter c7 sets a new standard in performance and ease of use. Designed to process a wider range of paper types and weights at higher speeds, it empowers print providers to expand their offerings and operate more efficiently.
What’s New with the Cutter c7:
- Handle Heavier Media with Ease
The Cutter c7 supports paper weights up to 400gsm, opening the door to high-value applications such as premium postcards, brochures, photo books, greeting cards, and more. It’s also capable of processing lightweight stock as low as 60gsm, offering unprecedented flexibility in one device. - Improved Third-Party Compatibility
Unlike rotary systems, the Cutter c7 can start and stop instantly, allowing it to synchronize perfectly with downstream processes. This enables seamless integration into a wide range of finishing lines, such as saddle stitchers, folders or book sewing machines from leading industry providers. This reduces waste and enhances finishing flexibility - the Cutter c7 is well suited for dynamic and fast-changing applications. - Supports Output from All Major Web-fed Inkjet Presses
The Cutter c7 accommodates web widths up to 23 inches, making it fully compatible with printed output from today’s leading inkjet presses.

The Cutter c7 delivers cleaner, sharper cuts every time thanks to its precision guillotine cutting technology, ensuring crisp edges even on heavy stock and eliminating the “white edge” flaws common with traditional rotary cutters handling those heavy and thicker papers. Cutter c7 is the chief component of Tecnau’s CutReady line – with an added shingling conveyor, CutReady is a cost-effective solution for production of postcards and other marketing materials.
Cutter c7’s intelligent white paper management system automatically separates blank sheets and features a larger waste bin, significantly reducing the need for operator intervention and extending run time. Combined with a user-friendly touchscreen interface that streamlines setup and application changes, the Cutter c7 minimizes downtime and training requirements, making it both efficient and easy to use. Designed with simplicity and performance in mind, the Cutter c7 delivers a lower initial price-tag and reduced maintenance requirements when compared to rotary cutters — offering a faster return on investment for print operations of any size.
