Description
About the Cut-True 31H
The Formax Cut-True 31H is the heavy hitter of the Cut-True line: a hydraulic guillotine cutter with hydraulic drive on both the blade and the clamp, engineered for two-shift operation. It cuts stacks up to 28 inches wide and a full 4 inches high with 0.1mm cutting accuracy, managed from a 10-inch color touchscreen that stores up to 100 programmable jobs with up to 100 cuts each.
Moving big stacks is half the battle, so the 31H includes an anti-friction ball deck with air-assist and extra-large side tables. Hydraulic clamp pressure adjusts via a gauge knob, a removable false clamp protects sensitive stock (minimum cut length 2.36 inches with the false clamp fitted, 1.18 inches without it), and a foot-pedal pre-clamp lets operators verify position before cutting. An LED cutting line, infrared safety curtain, dual-button operation, internal light, key lock, blade lock, and automatic blade return complete the package. Freight is quoted with your order.

Specifications sourced from the Formax Cut-True 31H spec sheet (rev. 1/2026) on file. Two notes on that sheet: it prints the third overall dimension as a second “D” (73″ W x 69″ D x 59.9″ D), which is a typo for height, shown here as H; and it lists no cutting accuracy figure, so that row is omitted rather than estimated.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the cutting capacity?
Stacks up to 28.7 inches wide and 3.94 inches high, with 0.1mm cutting accuracy.
How does the 31H compare to the Cut-True 33H?
Both are fully hydraulic with the same 700-4,500 psi clamp range and 100-job memory. The 33H is the bigger machine: 31.5 inches of cutting width against 28.7, a 4-inch stack against 3.94, and removable tables so it still fits a 36-inch doorway. The 31H is lighter at 1,323 lbs versus 1,874 and runs on a 208V 30A line rather than 3-phase 220V 40A.
What is the minimum cut length?
1.18 inches (30mm) with the false clamp removed, or 2.36 inches (60mm) with the false clamp in place.
Is it built for heavy production?
Yes — the hydraulic blade and clamp drive is engineered for two-shift operation.
