Composite manufacturing requires precision cutting solutions capable of handling glass fiber, carbon fiber, and aramid in both dry and prepreg forms while maintaining accuracy and reliability.
Effective Composite Cutting
Cutting and trimming composites isn’t without challenges. We focus on creating reliable, accurate, and versatile machines that address key obstacles such as material costs, evolving inputs, operator safety, and manufacturing environments.
MATERIAL GRADE
Automated and Manual Solutions
You need solutions that can handle high demands. Eastman’s manually operated and automated cutting machines deliver accurate cuts and clean edges for a range of composite materials, even after hours of run time.
AUTOMATED
The C135 cuts and conveys continuously with InMotionâ„¢ software and is ideal for extra-long patterns and precise, efficient production.
AUTOMATED
The S135 cuts, marks, and punches with speed and precision, holding material firmly in place for clean, consistent results.
AUTOMATED
The Talon Multi-Ply cuts stacked materials with power and precision, making it ideal for industrial fabrics, composites, and technical textiles.
SYSTEM OPTIONS
The Blue Jay spreads and cuts fabric at the press of a button, with options like a Pull-Off clamp and guided knife for fast, accurate straight-line cuts.
MANUAL
The Buzzaird uses air power and custom blade shapes to slice, chop, or shear technical fabrics with total precision and control.
MANUAL
The Chickadee is a lightweight solution with more power and cutting capacity than any handheld knife of its size for reduced operator fatigue.
MANUAL
The Hornet is a rechargeable, lightweight cordless cutter with variable speeds and high torque for precise, powerful cutting of heavy industrial materials.
