The GTXL CAD Cutting Knife blade is a precision component specifically engineered for the Gerber GTXL Automated Cutting System. These blades are designed for high-volume, multi-ply fabric cutting environments, typically utilized in garment and textile manufacturing. 

Key Specifications & Features

The standard blade used for the GTXL system is typically made from High-Speed Steel (HSS) to maintain a sharp edge through multiple layers of material. 

Blade Types & Functionality

The GTXL system supports different blade technologies depending on the material and application: 

· Reciprocating Knife: The primary tool for multi-ply cutting, utilizing a long vertical stroke to prevent "hanging threads".

· Drag Blade: Used for single-ply applications.

· Carbide Knife: Recommended for extremely challenging or abrasive materials.

· Optional Cooling: A cooling device can be added to prevent the blade from melting heat-sensitive or fusible materials during the cutting process.
