Engineered to replace labor-intensive manual cutting and inconsistent traditional tools, the CNC Knife-1212 combines robust industrial design with user-friendly technology—making it ideal for small to mid-scale production lines. Whether you’re working with leather, fabric, or cardboard, the CNC Knife-1212 delivers clean, repeatable cuts that elevate product quality while reducing operational costs. As a core offering from Jinan Chentuo, a leader in CNC equipment, the CNC Knife-1212 is backed by reliable performance and industry-proven durability.

Core Features of the CNC Knife-1212

The CNC Knife-1212 is designed with practicality and precision at its core, featuring:

• Optimized Work Envelope: With XYZ axis travel of 1200×1200×500mm and a max cutting thickness of ≤50mm, the CNC Knife-1212 handles medium-sized workpieces (e.g., upholstery panels, packaging inserts) without frequent repositioning.

• Tangential Oscillating Knife: The machine’s tangential knife system adjusts blade angle dynamically, ensuring smooth, burr-free cuts on flexible or layered materials—critical for maintaining edge quality on products like leather goods or fabric components.

• Secure Workholding: A thick-felt vacuum absorption table keeps lightweight or slippery materials (e.g., cloth, PVC) firmly in place during cutting, eliminating shifting that causes misalignment or waste.

• Precision Drive & Control: Equipped with a Ruida control system, servo motor drive, and gear rack + square rail transmission, the CNC Knife-1212 achieves consistent positioning accuracy and a cutting speed range of 0–50mm/min (adjustable by material properties).

• Software Compatibility: Supports common design file formats (AI, PLT, DXF, CDR), letting you import designs directly from CAD software—streamlining workflow and reducing manual programming time.

Key Advantages of the CNC Knife-1212

Choosing the CNC Knife-1212 delivers measurable benefits for your operation:

• Material Versatility: The CNC Knife-1212 cuts a wide range of soft materials, including PU leather, PVC, rubber, cloth, and carton—making it a single solution for diverse production needs (e.g., upholstery, packaging, crafts).

• Reduced Labor Costs: Automated cutting replaces manual work, cutting labor time by up to 70% for repetitive tasks. The CNC Knife-1212 runs unattended for extended periods, freeing staff for higher-value tasks.

• Minimized Material Waste: Precision cutting paths and vacuum workholding reduce scrap by up to 20% compared to manual methods. For high-cost materials like genuine leather, this translates to significant long-term savings.

• Consistent Quality: Unlike manual cutting (which varies by operator skill), the CNC Knife-1212 produces identical cuts across every workpiece—ensuring uniform product quality and reducing rework.

• Compact & Durable Design: With a machine size of 1860×1610×1420mm and a net weight of 500kg, the CNC Knife-1212 fits in small workshop spaces while maintaining the sturdiness needed for daily industrial use.

Applications of the CNC Knife-1212

The CNC Knife-1212 excels in industries that rely on soft material processing:

• Upholstery & Furniture: Cuts fabric, foam, and leather for sofa cushions, chair covers, and decorative upholstery components—ensuring precise fits for custom or standard furniture designs.

• Packaging & Printing: Produces custom cardboard inserts, corrugated packaging, and paper displays. The CNC Knife-1212 handles intricate cutouts and creases for retail-ready packaging.

• Leather Goods Manufacturing: Trims PU or genuine leather for bags, wallets, and footwear components. The tangential knife ensures clean edges that require minimal finishing.

• Textile & Apparel: Cuts patterns for clothing, accessories, and home textiles (e.g., curtains, bedding). The machine’s speed and accuracy support small-batch custom production or bulk runs.

• Advertising & Crafts: Creates foam letters, PVC signs, and fabric banners. The CNC Knife-1212 handles delicate cuts for promotional materials or custom craft projects.

Jinan Chentuo CNC Equipment Co., Ltd’s CNC Knife-1212 is more than a cutting tool—it’s a solution that balances performance, efficiency, and affordability. Its compact size, material versatility, and consistent quality make it a smart investment for businesses looking to scale production without compromising on precision. Whether you’re a small workshop expanding capabilities or a mid-sized manufacturer optimizing workflows, the CNC Knife-1212 delivers the reliability and results you need to stay competitive.
