An In-Depth Look at the Manual CardMate Business Card Cutter
The Manual CardMate Business Card Cutter is a small manual cutter designed to cut standard 10-up business cards from the comfort of your home or office. It is a low-volume machine built to handle personal and small business card jobs at speeds of up to 60 business cards per minute. The CardMate Manual Business Card Cutter is operated by a hand crank on the right hand side of the machine. There are two open throats on the top of the machine where the paper is inserted, and the finished business cards exit from the front opening of the machine. One of the great things about the CardMate Business Card Cutter is its ease of use… even children can safely use this cutter! Simply place your printed business card letter size sheet vertically into the rear opening and crank the handle clockwise. This cuts your business card sheet into four strips. Dispose of the two outer strips. Then take one of those left over strips and insert it horizontally into the front opening and crank the handle clockwise again. This cuts your strip into five business cards. Dispose of the scrap strips on the outside of your cards and repeat this step with your second strip to complete your business cards.

Limitations:
The CardMate Manual Business Card Cutter is a low-volume machine built for home and small office usage. For this reason, it is not recommended that the CardMate be used in production facilities where high output and speed are required.
The CardMate has a sheet capacity of one sheet at a time, so you cannot cut multiple sheets of business cards in the same run. Overloading the CardMate often leads to irreparable damages.
The CardMate Manual has a permanent blade that cannot be replaced after excessive usage.
The CardMate is not a gutter-cut business card cutter, which means that it does not cut small strips in between your cards, and therefore, does not allow for full-bleed business cards.
