Perfect cuts


Precise cutting edges


Optimized handling


The grinding table is arranged inclined towards the user. The integrated teflon glides reduce the friction between the grinding table and the copy grinding plate to a mini­mum. The interaction of these ergonomically optimized components enables fatigue-free working and makes the operation simple and safe.

For a comfortable operation, the handles of the copy grinding plate are designed and ­arranged according to the contour of the cutting edge.
