Automatic Pressing
Thanks to its automatic paper pressing system, the MÜHLEN CAKI A-380 prevents documents from shifting during cutting and ensures an extremely clean cut. It also lets you perform the entire cutting process with just one hand, without needing the other hand to hold or press the paper down.

Capable of cutting up to 10 sheets of paper (80gsm) at a time, this model can also cut materials such as photographs, cardboard and laminating film. Able to cut A3 and smaller documents along both their long and short edges, the model has a cutting bed length of 440mm.

MÜHLEN Caki 380-A3 — Automatic-Press Guillotine Paper Cutter for A3
Who Is It For?
The MÜHLEN Caki 380-A3 is a guillotine paper cutter built for heavy-duty use in places where trimming is a daily task rather than an occasional one: offices, copy and stationery shops, print workshops, photographers and design studios. Its automatic paper pressing system clamps the sheets as the blade comes down, so you can run the whole cut with one hand instead of holding the stack with the other. It takes A3 and smaller documents along both the long and the short edge.
Key Features and What They Do
- Automatic paper pressing: Holds documents in place during the cut, preventing shifting and giving a clean edge with one-handed operation.
- 440 mm cutting bed: Long enough for A3 sheets, with metric rulers on the tray and a magnetic fixing stop for alignment.
- 10 sheets (80gsm) per pass: Also cuts photographs, cardboard and laminating film.
- Self-sharpening special steel blade: The alloy blade sharpens itself with every cut, and a blade-push mechanism supports smooth travel.
- Guarded handle, brake and latch: The handle grips securely without slipping, an end-of-cut braking system stops the blade, and a locking latch secures it when idle.
- All-metal build: Fully metal components and an integrated carrying handle.

What are the weight and dimensions?
Net weight is 3.65 kg, gross weight 4 kg, and the net dimensions are 670x320x100 mm.
What warranty does it have?
The MÜHLEN Caki 380-A3 is covered by a 24-month warranty.
Usage and Care Tips
Square each sheet against the metric rulers and the magnetic stop before lowering the handle; the press takes over from there. Let the end-of-cut brake bring the blade to rest, then close the locking latch whenever the cutter is not in use. Place it on a level, stable surface where the non-slip plastic feet can grip, and use the built-in carrying handle when moving it. Brushing paper dust and offcuts out of the tray and blade channel regularly helps the self-sharpening blade keep producing clean cuts.
