Cutting-Edge Automation: The Silicone Tubing Cutter You Never Knew You Needed! 

I bet a lot of us would love to watch an extended video of this including the designing, the arduino, all of the electronics, etc. Great engineering!

Seriously cool practical solution.

We had this exact problem for my own products but much longer lengths of 10 to 75cm. Our final solution was still manual but involved wrapping the tubing around two rollers that could be adjusted to be closer together or further apart. So long as you keep the tension consistent you can get a bunch of tubes all the right length in one cut.

Simply brilliant! I admire your creativity, and engineering skills

I love everything you make ❤

Got a design available on that guillotine thing, or perhaps some more pics? Thinking I need to make a version for heat shrink tubing. Fully automated would be cooler of course, but not sure I need that level right now. -JC

Put more work in to it. Add a second feed and increase the speed

Hello, I was planning on making that juice press that you made in one of your videos, I just wanted to ask if it’s still holding up six years later? I don’t know why I just keep feeling like I’ll make it and the wood will crack after a while, thank you!

Does your employer appreciate just how much money you're gonna save him with this? The best part about this, after all, is that it can work unsupervised.

Working smarter not harder on a different level. Great job man.

Great video, would love to see the behind the scenes CAD and thought process of how you designed it!

Hello! The automated tubing cutter is a great design. Would you be able to provide the STLs? I would love to build it.

Beautifully designed and executed. Seriously, that little gizmo is something to be proud of. Wonder how it could be adapted to handle vinyl or rubber; perhaps changing the linear blade motion to more of a crescent shape? There's nothing like complicating something to try to make it simpler, right? Good stuff, Max ;)

Hey Max - fairly new to your channel, but I'm in awe of your work ethic and of course your projects. You often say that you're doing these things "for work" - and I wanted to know more about what kind of job you do that allows you to exercise these muscles, and what kind of qualifications you need to convince employers to take you on. Again, great project, I really love the simplicity of how you were able to achieve the cutting action with a simple angled channel and servo, it's really satisfying.

Cool idea to add the checking-gauge at the top :)

That is really impressive. I bet there would even be a market for this machine for small scale manufacturers

Hi, how are you? I wanted to ask you if the stl of the manual slicer is anywhere to buy? Thank you!

I would like to see more about this!

I would love to build this. Would gladly pay for STls. I cut rubber piping at work with scissors and am sick of it!

But.... can you also cut a RU-vid? /*baddaboooosh*/

Awesome work! I love watching and making this kind of stuff!

Any updates if the cutter is still cutting well and what updates you had added meanwhile. Like it a lot.

great design and project. i would suggest adding 0.91 inch display, that way you can get feedback of the set length, they cost less than $2USD, also you will be able to show the number of cuts

this is engineering in a nutshell

'promosm'

wow.

I like the part where you pet the 20 razor blades the long way. 😂

Hello @MaxMakerChannel, do you have the files / instructions shared in any platform? I am interested in build something similar. Any updates?

I love that you built this. Don't you have any improvements in mind?

Do you need the bumpers for furniture?

Spend the money for the metal gears

Now make the same machine Abt 4 more times and you have a relatively fast work load

Is this real, authentic German engineering?!?!

Nice video! I am looking forward to seeing you test the efoil:)

Pretty cool for such a small task. I miss the days of How it's made.

May I ask where you learned how to build all these things?

This is way too simple, it needs overengineering!

Would you be willing to sell STEP or STL files for this?

you can maybe add 2 or 3 razer blade so its faster witjout a lot of work

incrivel !!!! parabens ! adorei o seu projeto !

Can it run faster?

I dont think anyone would go out of their way to make something like this for their workplace in the US. Only if you owned the company, or something similar.

more automation video plz

What I found interesting is the colour of the tube changing "colour" during/after cutting due to increased internal reflections/diffusion from the newly cut edge.

Laziness is a great motivator

Great invention! 👏

xkcd 1205 :D

Efoil test

Very clever device! Well done.

Very cool

So clever!

Super ☺️

Awesome!

Love it!

It's cool but the last few didn't get cut right

What product are all these gadgets for? What are you selling?

Any tips on designing gears?

no STL's ?
