Cast carbon film has to be able to withstand a lot – the material is correspondingly thick, stable and yet flexible. How does NEPATA perform when it comes to slitting?

The photos prove it: The cutting edges are absolutely straight and clean, no fringes. Fortunately, there is the right blade for every purpose for the NEPATA cutters. 

Especially the 5mm blade with counter-grinding and the blades made of solid carbide bring even better results with resistant materials. Also helpful with the carbon film: The lubrication system, which evenly moistens the blade with silicone oil, reducing friction and heat development. And with the line laser, the cut-off blade can be precisely positioned.
