New FC-7R cleavers
After extensive field trials in Japan, Sumitomo launches the FC-7R fibre cleavers in Europe. These new versions of the FC-7 “one-step” Handy Cleaver include a mechanism which automatically rotates the blade after each cleave. This means the blade needs no adjustment for 24,000 cleaves, probably one year of normal use, which saves time and increases productivity.
