Industrial Guillotine Shears & Roll Splitters

Heavy-Duty Shears for Cutting Oversized Rolls, Plastics, Pipe, and Production Scrap

Our heavy‑duty guillotine shears are purpose‑built to handle challenging cores and continuous materials. Featuring rugged steel construction, cylinder‑driven shears and optional upgrades for speed and safety, these machines efficiently process paper, film, wrap, foam, fabric, plastic, PVC, PETG, pipe and light non‑ferrous materials. Designed and built at our North Carolina facility, they deliver reliability, efficiency, and long‑term performance for your operation.

REI-ZR Guillotine Shear - Built to Cut What Others Can’t

The REI-ZR Roll Shear is built to tackle the most challenging rolled, bulk, and flat-stock materials. Engineered and manufactured in North Carolina, this heavy-duty system features a powerful dual-cylinder design, multiple size options, and precision cutting blades up to 132″ long.

Ideal for paper, film, carpet, foam, plastic and HDPE PVC, and light non-ferrous metals, the ZR delivers unmatched durability, cycle speed, and throughput.

Efficient Cutting Across Many Materials

For recyclers, converters, and manufacturing teams, the ability to cut rolls and bulk waste materials cleanly and consistently has a direct impact on production efficiency, downstream equipment performance, and overall material recovery. REI guillotine roll shears eliminate the challenges of manual cutting, damaged tooling, and inconsistent roll preparation, giving you a safer, faster, and more reliable way to process difficult materials.
