For example, to prepare dumbbell-shaped sample, A dog bone die cutter is very necessary. This dumbbell-shaped sample is normally used to check the plastic or rubber tensile strength. This type of sample cutter sometimes is searched from google, bing or other search engine with the name tensile test sample cutter.

2. How many type of sample cutter?

From the operation mode, there are manual, electrical, pneumatic, and hydraulic types

From the blade shape, there are 3-type of blade, like straight blade cutter, circular blade, cutting dies with different shape.
