    Looking to upgrade to a bigger used guillotine cutter with a digital backgauge setting. Ideal would be programmable so I could enter a few different sizes with quick recall. Automatic clamp and cut needed. Suggestions?

    What budget-range, maximum cut size, and how much use (light use daily or constant heavy production use?)

    Average use would be 1k to 5k sheets per day to trim the bleeds. Need 18" cutting width minimum.

    Look for a used MBM Triumph 5221-ec - they go for $3000 - $5000 depending on condition.

    Otherwise look at Polar and Challenge cutters.
