Standard equipment on the Kern 980 / Kern 985 Continuous Form Cutter includes many features that other providers only offer as accessories.

Characteristics of the unique Kern 980 / Kern 985 Continuous Form Cutter:

Fast, precise, Versatile
The continuous forms cutter satisfies all the varied requirements of computer print-out-processing at maximum speed. The proof is 34'200 high quality cuts per hour at the same time removing the horizontal perforation.

High reliability
The whole Operation is controlled electronically. The conformity between programmed transport depth and executed cutting depth is controlled and displayed.

Ease of Operation
The operating switches are clearly presented and the control panel with clearly marked function symbols.

Excellent cutting quality
The cutting quality is assured by the high quality tractor system and the ramped acceleration and deceleration. The digital transport positioning has been developed for Optimum transport control of the continuous forms.
