After the foil printing was done on the Heidelberg foil press my next visit to Identity Print was to film them cutting out the individual card inserts on a Heidelberg Cylinder cutting machine. After a 60 minute 'make-ready', where the knife is loaded into the machine and adjusted very carefully to get the perfect cut (which incidentally worked out well for me because I had forgot to charge the GoPro beforehand), the actual cutting process was super-quick and finished in just 15 minutes. The video and photos below shows the machine in action and final cutting on a paper guillotine.
