What Is a Rotary Cutter?
A rotary cutter is a cutting tool equipped with a circular rotating blade, ideal for slicing through materials like fabric, paper, film, rubber, and leather.
Favored for its precision and ease of use, this tool finds widespread application in sewing, model making, crafts, and similar activities. Rotary cutter blades come in various sizes, such as 45mm, 60mm, and 18mm, with the capacity to cut different materials and thicknesses depending on the blade size. The cutting process involves positioning the blade tip on the material, pressing it down, and then rotating the blade to cut.
Due to the sharpness of the blade, safety is paramount when using a rotary cutter. Users should handle it carefully to avoid injuries, regularly replace worn blades, and choose a blade size appropriate for the material’s thickness to ensure both safety and cutting efficiency.
