Due to their high-performance properties, composite materials are widely used in the marine sector, but their use in the production of hulls, decks and ship superstructures requires special precautions.

One of the links that determines the results is undoubtedly the cutting process. In the field of nautical fabric cutting, companies must set up cutting rooms according to certain techniques in order to achieve satisfactory results in terms of product quality and cost-effectiveness.

What features should a nautical fabric cutting room have?

Versatility: Can cut different types of materials of different weights

Flexibility: adaptable to more or less intensive production volumes

Speed: Reduce processing time for marine fabric cuts. Multi-layer cutting can greatly help reduce the time required, as long as it does not put undue stress on the tissue

Accuracy: Every cut must be calibrated and ensure millimeter accuracy

Different Types of Blades: Any good cutting room must have a variety of blades, maybe even ones tailored for each specific project

Automatic or manual cutting of nautical fabrics?

In addition to speed, automated cutting systems dedicated to marine fabrics offer two important advantages: The first is a 15-20% reduction in waste by eliminating inevitable errors in automated processes. The second is the repeatability of parts. In fact, the automatic cutting machine can ensure that the cloth is cut to the exact same size, which is impossible to achieve by manual cutting; this greatly improves the final quality of the product.
