Fabric separation
WeftMaster® CUT-iT is the ideal fabric cutter system for thermal cutting from thin and light to dense and heavy synthetic fabrics. It increases the quality of the cutting and reduces style change times.
- All over the world, producers of high-end and technical fabrics take no risk and specify CUT-iT to guarantee a top quality and uniform selvedge. Making use of CUT-iT during the fabric production process ensures a quick return on investment for safety-critical products like airbags, tarpaulins or sailcloth.
- This recently developed product is highly demanded in cleantech, medtech, geotextiles, automotive and many more high-tech areas.
- A top quality and uniform selvedge is highly valued especially if the yield in post processing is dependent on it.
- The CUT-iT control unit offers precisely controllable settings and saves them as a style for later use. This makes style and article changes fast and easy.
- A single control unit handles multiple cutters, allowing separating fabrics into multiple webs.

Sailcloth
Wind, water, salt and the highest loads. Sailing is something for true professionals and experts. Likewise making sailcloth, one of the most demanding high-performance fabrics, is produced only by specialized weavers.
A sailcloth must retain its shape even in high winds, but also allow and withstand strong stretching and this over a long period of time. In addition, the fabrics are constantly in contact with water and salt, which additionally stresses their surfaces. A fabric can only sustain these high demands if it has been manufactured to the highest quality.
