Hello Patrick, We have a VK300D-HS 6-head setup so 2 heads of white ink. The only issue we've ran into with ink flaking off is print on standard clear acrylic without using an ink promoter. ACM (Maxmetal), PVC (Palight) we don't have any issues with. We've been buying digital ready acrylic...

We have a Summa F1612 and we have the software set down position and depending on the vinyl/lam configuration we always do test cuts and just turn the blade as needed. It's been working out really well.

We have installed 3M 480 on brick, it took us little to no time at all to remove. It was up for 2 - 2 1/2 years 26'x10'. It was on bare brick with no paint so I can't speak to how much paint will come with it. With not knowing which material was used it's a guessing game. I'd just tell them...

We've been running a Mulitcam for the past 9 years and the thing is a tank. The service on the other hand isn't great, we use a former tech of Multicam to come service our machine. He's out of Colorado and because there are 4 or 5 machines in the area we just have him add us to his trips. But...

We have an Accubend Freedom, there was a learning curve to setting up the files. We keep a binder to spell it all out so we don't have to rely on one person to take care of all the channel letter jobs. I would contact CCI, they should be able to provide a new computer to run your machine. As...

We use GOQ LEDs (https://goqledamerica.com), they are Samsung LEDs rebranded. We have never ran into any issues. I have recently used Hanley LED for RGB Color changing options, they also have a very slim transformer which helps with interior jobs.

On Epson repairs using Decision1, I have yet to have a bad experience. They ship out 3 large boxes of every part under the sun ahead of the technician showing up. The great thing about that is your never waiting for a part to show up later, they have more than they need everytime. We have two...

We don't hem it normally. We use bannerups or powertabs to help reinforce the grommets.

I have ran a roland in the past I can't speak to how the newer ones are. But we are on our third Epson, soon to get a fourth and they print great and the maintenance schedule is simple. The color gamut on the SC80600 is amazing, but I'm not sure about flourescent colors...

So we've had Mimakis (JV-130 & JV-160) and Epsons (SC 60600) We recently upgraded an Epson to the SC 80600L. The bulk option is nice I think it took us three months before we replaced ink. The colors off this machine are amazing going from a 4 color to a 9 color. The white however is a nice...

I'm not sure on the fabric welding, but we purchased a Leister banner welder over 20 years ago for $4,500 and it's still going strong. We've had to replaced parts and get it worked on a few times but it still works well. The learning curve can be steep but well worth the savings in banner tape...

Hey JBurton, I appreciate the feedback on the ShopSabre, we have talked to a few people and it seems like a good fit. We aren't looking to pull the trigger for a couple years... So we plan on visiting ShopSabre to take a look. The lifetime support is a big plus as well as just being able to...

So I just recently looked into ShopSabre... I was very pleased to find a company within 4 hours of our shop. Does anyone have any experience with them at all? Good or Bad? Thanks for all the responces, all have been very helpful!

Thanks, I'll definitely look into this! Looks like something very handy.

We upgraded our vacuum motor when we bought our Multicam and we are still taping things down or putting double sided masking tape on smaller projects. The suction is great on full sheets or that cover the entire quadrants... I'm impressed your didn't run into more problems on the machine due to...

Our Multicam has been great, it's more of the service end that we had troubles with. The longest we were down was roughly a week, which feels like an eternity when you realize how much goes through that machine on a daily basis. We had a stepper board go our during Covid and it was a struggle...

We looked into a Colex but I think our Summa helps fills some of that void. We just want to narrow down the CNC only options at the moment.

Hello all, We currently have a 10 year old Multicam 1000 series 5x10 router. It is equipped with the vision registration system, no tool changer (Base model at the time). It's been a good machine; we are just looking for that next step up in speed, ease of use, a tool changer, and any...

Alive and well.

Thanks for all the replies, that helps figuring what we need to get. This forum has been very helpful narrowing down equipment to look into and equipment to avoid. Just watching videos of the Summa, I don't know why we never got one earlier... It will save so much time, I think we will have...
