What is guillotine cutting?
Guillotine cutting is a precision sheet metal cutting process used to produce straight-line cuts quickly and accurately across a range of materials and thicknesses.
This method is particularly effective for preparing flat sheet material for downstream manufacturing processes such as forming, welding and machining.
Operating within our AS9100 quality system, all guillotine cutting processes are carefully controlled to ensure repeatability, accuracy and consistent cut quality.
Typical guillotine cutting applications
- Sheet metal preparation for fabrication
- Cutting blanks for forming and metal spinning
- Preparation of components for welding
- Production of flat profiles for assemblies
- Batch cutting for repeat manufacturing work
- General engineering sheet processing
Guillotine cutting provides fast, efficient and accurate material preparation, making it an essential process within many engineering and fabrication workflows.
