The venerable 64" Vertical Bias Cutter has remained a fixture in many plants around the world. Spadone offers several simple conversions that improve performance and reduce maintenance, as well as machine add-ons that will improve productivity and efficiency. While most of these are applicable to the old 64" models, the servo conversions have been successfully implemented on the Model 100. Call us with the serial number of the machine to see if your Spadone Bias Cutter can benefit from the upgrade kits listed below.

A better way to activate the fabric clamp. A change of air pressure will adjust for exactly the correct fabric clamping pressure. Difficult adjustments at the end of the clamp are no longer necessary.
