S210 Semi-Automatic Core Cutter

Affordable and durable...

The S210 is a rugged, yet affordable, fixed-knife core cutter designed to provide the clean cuts and precise lengths needed for low- to medium-volume core production. It’s the perfect core cutter for creating quality cores in-house, on demand, without wasting a second of production time or unnecessary floor space inventorying precut cores.

Like all Appleton core cutters, the S210 Core Cutter is engineered with proven features that ensure cut quality, ease of operation, and operator safety:
  • Easy to use – With the core manually advanced to the target length, the operator needs only step on the foot pedal to activate the air-assisted cut-off knife.
  • Precise Cuts - The air-assisted fixed knife cuts to within +/-0.010 inch of the targeted length.
  • Clean Cuts – The fixed knife of the S210 Core Cutter makes clean, burnished cuts while generating virtually no dust or noise – making for a superior cut and a better work environment.
  • Energy Saving – Every Appleton core cutter features an auto-shutoff that turns off the cutter when left unattended, eliminating unnecessary energy costs while minimizing wear on moving cutter parts. As always, workers are safer when unattended machinery is not running.
  • Simplified Adjustment – Different core diameters require a simple change of the core mandrel. When core diameters change more frequently, Appleton’s IDC (Instant Diameter Change) option will speed changeovers and improve productivity.
  • Installation and Training – Professional installation and training services are readily available from skilled technicians with years of core cutter experience.

60 years of Superior Support

The S210 also comes with an outstanding promise of support. If you should need technical assistance, service or replacement parts, Appleton will be there for you. Appleton still provides parts and service for core cutters built over 50 years ago – you can be assured our tradition of superior support will bring long-term value to your Appleton core cutter investment.
