Description
The ultimate cutting tool for the busy production environment
Designed to be permanently mounted to a SmartFold Bench or your existing work bench, the Evolution3 SmartFold is the ultimate tool for a busy production environment. The SmartFold is unique in that it features an integral cutting strip and the entire cutting mechanism can be folded under the work bench to leave the work surface clear for other tasks.
- Lift and-Hover technology enables single-handed fast and accurate alignment of all material. Lower the clamping bar and it hovers just above the material surface with zero sag. Use the sightline strip to see where the cut will be made, then fully engage the clamp.
- QuickSwap Double Graphik tool head is included to enable two-way cutting
- Optional QuickSwap tool heads allow you to rapidly change heads to provide general cutting, creasing or fabric cutting
- Heavy duty reliability– Built using high quality materials and designed to keep perfect blade control.
- Precision Accuracy – You are always guaranteed ultra-high 0.008” (0.2mm) precision accuracy with every cut.
- Clean quality cuts with no dust or debris
- Available in cut lengths of 44”, 64”, 84”, 104”, 124” and 144”
- 5-year guarantee

Single-handed, fast accurate alignment:
Two unique features enable single-handed, fast and accurate alignment of all materials irrespective of thickness. The Lift-and-Hover system enables the clamping bar to be easily raised and then lowered so it hovers just above the material surface. The anti-sag mechanism means the cutter bar can be suspended exactly parallel to the media surface over the whole length of the cut with zero sag, even on the longest sized cutter.
Heavy duty reliability:
The entire Evolution3 range has been built to last, using high quality materials and well tested engineering principles. The cutting head bearing system and clamping are tough enough to keep perfect blade control, even with the most difficult of materials. Keencut makes the majority of components on its precision CNC machines, keeping tolerances and quality under constant control, assuring exceptional accuracy and total reliability.
QuikSwap Double Graphik tool head:
The Evolution3 Double Graphik tool head comes as standard and has two individual blade holders for two-way cutting. The blades are stronger and more stable than regular blades making the Double Graphik tool ideal for vinyl, banner, cardboard, PVC foamboard up to 13mm (1/2″), foam-centered board, corrugated plastic, paper, pop-up and roll-up materials.
Accessories
Graphik blades:
A double ground cutting edge, with special tip design to increase durability and reduce tip breakage. Suitable for cutting all types of materials especially tougher materials where extra stability is required.
Fabric tool head:
Optional head for use on Evolution3 cutters with a cutting wheel for cutting more delicate materials and fabrics.
Creaser tool head:
Optional head for use on Evolution3 cutters with three different shaped wheels for creasing corrugated and plain card.
Rocker tool head:
The optional medium-duty Rocker head is a QuikSwap tool for the Evolution3. Used for general purpose cutting and aluminum composite panel cutting, e.g DiBond, with the Tech-D.012 blade.
Tech-D.012 blades:
Rectangular double-sided blades made from a higher grade steel than most comparable blades on the market giving increased durability and reduced blade tip wear/breakage.
SmartFold Bench:
The SmartFold Bench is specifically designed to create the optimum cutting platform for the Evolution3 SmartFold. It has an extremely strong extrusion built-in, which allows the cutter to attach directly to the bench. The complete stability and perfectly flat surface will ensure reliable and precise accuracy for every cut. Worktop not included.
