Grippers

Grippers are an integral part of the graphics design process. Often found in the graphic design studio, Grippers are tools which are used to hold the material being cut during the design process. By placing the material in the Gripper, a graphic designer can make sure that the entire material is clamped in place, ensuring that the cuts are precise. The Gripper also allows a designer to make fine changes to the material while also having control over where the blade of the cutter is making the cut. As a result, a designer can create precise, intricate designs with a high degree of accuracy.
