Automatic Flying Shear Type Clay Cutters For The Ceramics Industry


Do you need precise right-angle cuts with extremely consistent length? The model SCC-2700 measures and moves the cutting mechanism along with the extruded column, matching the speed and accurately measuring the length. This technique assures extremely accurate right-angle cuts regardless of the speed of the clay column.

Multi-Channel Clay Cutters

If the need is for high-volume, Starkey Machinery manufactures a full line of standard and custom ceramic cutters and shapers.  Whether the need is for single cutting head or multiple interdependently operating heads, each one is built to handle millions of accurate cuts at speeds up to ten cuts per second.

Digital Clay Cutter Control


At Starkey Machinery, we manufacture our own dedicated microprocessor-based digital cutter controls.  Each system uses sensors coupled with pneumatic or rotary cutting heads to accurately shape, measure, and cut.  Single or multi-channel controllers permit each cutter head to independently measure and cut for consistent results.  Our custom-software also keeps track of how many parts are produced by each cutting head.
