Gerber increases capability of leather cutting systems

15/01/2015
Cutting machinery maker Gerber Technology has created a new accessory for its line of Taurus and Taurus II Leather Cutting Systems, the High Capacity Pivex Punch. 

Now, systems can cut and punch heavy leathers (up to 12 ounces) using Gerber’s Pivex reciprocating knife head with the new punch.

Designed with apparel and accessory manufacturers in mind, the punch is ideal for users who require consistently sized holes in heavier leather hides, such as belts, footwear, handbags, watchbands and jackets.

“The Taurus II Leather Cutting System represents a strategic product line for Gerber and we will continue to drive innovation for this segment of the market,” said Tom Gordon, director of industrial products at Gerber.
