The Start International TBC-50 is a heavy-duty automatic material cutter designed for non-adhesive materials used in industrial production environments. It automatically measures, feeds, and cuts defined lengths with high accuracy and repeatability.
The TBC-50 is ideal for ribbon, belting, webbing, sleeving, strapping, hook and loop, protective materials, and other non-adhesive materials that do not fray when cut. It handles materials up to 110mm (4.33") wide. If your material frays, we offer the TBC-50H with a hot cutting knife.
Used in belt loop production, textile manufacturing, webbing preparation, protective sleeving preparation, packaging assembly, and general industrial material cutting applications requiring repetitive, consistent lengths.
If your material frays when cut, the TBC-50H hot knife model may be required.
We strongly recommend submitting material samples prior to purchase to confirm compatibility and determine the best model configuration for your application.
This unit is considered special order and is non-returnable.

No. The TBC-50 is designed for non-adhesive materials only.
Ribbon, belting, webbing, sleeving, strapping, hook and loop, and similar non-adhesive materials that do not fray when cut.
For materials that fray, the TBC-50H hot knife version is recommended.
Yes. Length and quantity are programmable via the digital control panel.
The TBC-50 is considered special order and is non-returnable. Material testing is recommended prior to purchase.
Manufacturers cutting repetitive lengths of non-adhesive material require consistent measurement, clean cuts, and production efficiency. Manual cutting introduces variability and labor cost.
The TBC-50 automates the feeding and cutting process, improving throughput, length accuracy, and repeatability in textile, webbing, and industrial material processing environments.
