What does the typical repeat accuracy of machines for processing hoses and profiles mean?

Machines that cut, drill or punch hoses and profiles should perform these tasks as accurately as possible. This is the only way to ensure that the parts produced are as identical as possible. The typical repeat accuracy indicates how precisely a machine achieves this and how large the deviation rate is. If, for example, 100 identical parts with a certain dimension are to be produced, then not only how many parts have deviations is counted, but what deviation they have. Every millimeter of deviation increases the value of the repeat accuracy. The value should therefore be as low as possible.

Can reinforced hoses be cut with a normal cutting machine?

No, this is not possible. There are special machines for reinforced material.

What to look out for when buying a guillotine cutter for rubber?

First of all, a guillotine cutter for rubber can only be used for not reinforced rubber products. Also very sensitive material should not be cut with a guillotine cutter. The machines for all other materials differ primarily in terms of variability: Can the blades be changed without tools? Can the feed pressure with which the material is fed to the knife be precisely adjusted? How fast is the feed? How many cuts per minute can the machine achieve? And can it stop before each cut to make the cut particularly accurate?
