Sheet and Plastic Shearing
Guillotine cutting is a proven machining method that combines simplicity with high precision. It provides smooth edges without the risk of material deformation and works perfectly for both metal sheets and plastics. The process is performed without the use of high temperatures, preserving the physical properties of the raw material. It is a fast, repeatable, and cost-effective solution—especially for larger production series. If you value accuracy, consistency, and aesthetics, this technology is worth considering.

What is sheet and plastic guillotine cutting?
Sheet and plastic guillotine cutting is a mechanical process in which a sheet is cut using a sharp blade. Since it does not generate heat, there is no thermal deformation, allowing the material to retain its natural structure. As a result, guillotine cutting of metal sheets ensures high quality and dimensional repeatability.
This cutting technique is widely used across multiple industries—from industrial manufacturing to advertising and custom projects. Its precision enables the faithful reproduction of design specifications, while the cutting speed significantly reduces production time. Moreover, it eliminates the need for additional grinding or finishing.
What materials can be cut with a guillotine?
The range of materials suitable for guillotine cutting is broad. We perform guillotine cutting of metal sheets and plastics using machinery adapted to each specific material type and thickness.
We cut, among others:
- carbon steel and stainless steel sheets,
- non-ferrous metals such as brass and copper,
- plastics like PVC, acrylic (plexiglass), and composite panels (e.g., Dibond).
We process materials up to 3 mm in thickness (stainless steel up to 1.5 mm). For atypical formats, we also offer alternative methods such as guided cutting or CNC milling. Guillotine cutting at a competitive price is a universal solution, always tailored to your specific application and project requirements.
What are the benefits of guillotine cutting?
Professional guillotine cutting of sheet metal is not just about machinery—it’s also about expertise and process optimization. Each project is analyzed individually to provide the best possible outcome. This ensures that the components you receive are ready for immediate assembly or display.
Why choose us:
- we minimize material waste while maintaining precision,
- we are flexible—handling both single-unit and batch production,
- we provide technical support at every stage of cooperation.
No matter the material or project size, guillotine cutting is performed efficiently, precisely, and according to your expectations. It’s the perfect choice when you need consistent dimensions and smooth edges.
