Automated Cutters for Upholstery, Marine and Motor Trimming

Aeronaut's small format flatbed cutters are the perfect tool for custom and short run upholstery, marine and motor trimming. Fast, precise, reliable and low maintenance but most importantly, reasonably priced, Aeronaut has automated cutting systems which designed for the smaller upholstery business or just-in-time manufacturing.

Aeronaut's game changing SiliconEye machine vision system was designed for upholstery and aftermarket car seats where a business needs to turn around a high quality product from woven, vinyl or leather materials in a short time. Traditional templates and patterns can be digitised in a few seconds to create patterns to either edit and refine or cut directly. SiliconEye brings high performance interactive nesting and autonesting onto leather hides to the market at a price that any upholsterer can afford.

Aeronaut's rotary blade cutters are faster and more accurate than high ply cutters with oscillating blades. A rotary blade can cut almost all upholstery materials including wool, synthetics, vinyls and leather. Inkjet print heads mean you can mark on almost any material. Where the material permits, a creasing tool can help with fabrication. If time is tight and budgets are constrained, an Aeronaut cutter will suit both very well.
