CUTTING DOWN COMPLEXITY F amily-owned world market leader Product portfolio at a glance Founded in 1906 as “Adolf Mohr, Maschinenfabrik” in Hofheim, POLAR Mohr has developed from a regional supplier to the world’s number one for high-speed cutters and automation in the postpress sector. For over 70 years POLAR has been producing industrial cutting machines. The range of products includes components and systems, which cover all postpress processes: Loading, transferring, jogging, cutting, die-cutting, unloading, finishing, banding, networking and automating. As the market and technology...

Zero waste. Zero make-ready time. Completely automated. Compucut® With Compucut®, it has been possible to create cutting programs outside the high-speed cutter for over 30 years. The software has been continuously developed during this time period. Today it is a crucial part of the infrastructure in the networked smart print shop. Compucut® uses prepress data (CIP 3/4) to create cutting programs automatically and transfers these either directly to networking-capable cutting machines or to the external cutting program administration (ESPV). Every cutting machine integrated into the network...

Automatic processing of saddle-stitched and adhesive-bound products All-round model with 18.5” touch-screen display The robust and networkable POLAR BC 330 three-side trimmer allows automatic trimming of adhesive-bound or saddle-stitched products, such as books. A gripper moves the product to the respective cutting position and cuts it hydraulically. No conversion is necessary to process different formats from DIN A6 to A4. The allrounder is suitable for all typical cutting jobs. The machine is operated via an 18.5” touch screen. A graphic automatic programming system ensures mostly...

System for mainly unprinted materials in half and medium format System for mainly printed materials in medium and large format Consisting of: POLAR Lift for loading, high-speed cutter, Lift for unloading The stack lift allows the loading of the high-speed cutter at an ergonomically favorable working height. A stack lift is also used to unload the cut products. The unloading is carried out semi-automatically; the process is started manually and stopped by the light barrier. A CS 120 enables an output increase of up to 20% compared to a high-speed cutter without peripherals and, at the same...

EasyLoad Semi-automatic, ergonomic preparation of cutting layers The machine for semi-automated preparation of material reduces the physical strain in the loading process. A gripper system lifts the material and transports it to the jogger. The entire process and also the quality of the reams are under the full control of the operator. The system offers a high degree of flexibility due to the option of left and right-hand installation. Buffer systems Systems for continuous workflow POLAR buffer devices in all variants ensure continuous workflow. The POLAR Air Board Lift is used for the...

POLAR Transomats For loading and unloading the cutting material POLAR’s Transomats make the cutting process much easier. The lifting of material stacks and automatic loading relieves the operators and noticeably accelerates the production flow. The finished material is unloaded and stacked directly onto pallets. Whether it is intermediate or finished products, complete sheets or sheet parts: POLAR has the right component for every task. CuttingSystem PACE 200 Automated system for mainly printed materials in medium and large format Consisting of: POLAR high-speed cutter AT, lift for loading,...

Customized automation solutions Automated transport and cutting solutions for all kinds of requirements POLAR offers individual automation solutions in addition to the PACE systems established in the market. POLAR works together with customers to design and realize tailor-made systems. Depending on the particular requirements, POLAR highspeed cutters, peripheral equipment, buffer devices, gripper transport systems, appropriate software, and robot solutions are used in such systems. DC-12 RAPID Die-cutting system for highly automated, unmanned inline production of bundled cut and die-cut...

Ideal for getting started in the industrial production of square-cut labels Stand-alone die-cutter for small to medium runs Consisting of: Automatic cutter POLAR 137 Autotrim M, multi-station bander POLAR BM-105 In the LabelSystem SC-20, the POLAR Autotrim M automatic cutter is crucial for the economical production of square-cut labels. In the automatic cutter, strips are first to cut manually. Autotrim M then processes the strips into labels - fully automatically. A push-out device transports the label stacks into the multi-station bander for automatic banding. The LabelSystem SC-20 offers...

Stand-alone die-cutter DCC-M Stand-alone counterpressure die-cutter for small to medium runs In addition to its high flexibility, simple operation, and punching accuracy, the DCC-M stand-alone die-cutter is particularly suitable for processing compressible plastic materials, such as OPP films for in-mould applications. Thanks to OptiChange (punching frame preparation outside the machine), job changes can be carried out within 10-15 minutes. With the semi-automatic DCC-M, the pre-cut material is first manually placed in the feeding chute. Two gripper fingers safely transport the inserted...

 ICONS Connectivity Smart networking concepts for intelligent workflows. Compucut creates cutting programs fully automatically based on pre-press data, thus reducing the set-up time to zero. Digital POLAR cutting machines for digital printing are networkable, programmable, and are driven hydraulically. Commercial POLAR high-speed cutters & performance-enhancing CuttingSystems are the technological answers in postpress to increased requirements due to ever more efficient printing machines. Highest quality – 24/7. Automation PACE – short for POLAR Automation for Cutting Efficiency – automates...
