Perhaps the design could be altered.

I know the appeal of a guillotine is that it's fairly simple, but if we're gonna scale it up for maximal decapitating efficiency, then I feel like we can afford to have a motor with some horsepower lift the blade. Maybe two to make keeping both sides of the blade even easier.

Nah just add a decent pulley and maybee thicker beams so it wont collapse.
