Graphtec GB will demonstrate its new FCX2000 series of flatbed plotter/cutters at Sign and Digital UK. They are available in three sizes (920 x 610, 920 x 1,200 and 920 x 1,800mm) and a choice of either a vacuum suction or electrostatic material hold-down facility. The plotter/cutters have a maximum cutting force of 9.8N and a maximum cutting speed of 400mm/sec.
Key design features of the FCX2000 include a cutting head incorporating two tool holders, the first of which holds a knife and the second a creasing tool. There is also a USB port to enable offline operation and to allow files to be saved and retrieved remotely and a barcode function that enables printed bar code and the relevant cutting data to be recalled from memory and cut.
The FCX2000 series also features Graphtec’s latest proprietary ARMS 6 (Advanced Registration Mark Sensing) system. And the plotter/cutter is also supplied with Graphtec’s new Pro Studio design and production software.
