  3. My experience with the Roland GR 540 Vinyl Cutter - Tracking issues.

    Hi Dennis, Sorry to hear about the difficulties with your Roland cutter. That particular model has repeatability(cutting accuracy over distance) of 4-6' so anything beyond that 6' mark will usually start to drift on you. If you're getting 12' with accuracy then you are doing much better than...
  4. Summa S One 160 Drag pressure issue

    It looks like the blade depth is fine and the material with laminate is less than 6 mil so theoretically this should be possible. Have you tried cutting the path twice, maybe with a lower pressure setting, to see how well that works on this material? Best regards, Phil Johnson Airmark...
  5. Sumacutter D140 keeps on reloading

    If you're both referring to the autoload function, which measures the length and width of your media when you load new rolls or sheets, then you can turn that off using the Summa Cutter Control program. Just launch the program while the cutter is powered on, has media loaded, and is connected to...
  6. Summa S One 160 Drag pressure issue

    What type of material is it that you are trying to cut and are you trying to cut all the way through the material with a kiss cut? It would be really helpful if you could post a video showing the problem and include the cutting parameters you are using like you cutting force, cutting speeds...
  7. Summa Cutter - T Series

    You probably need to reconfigure your port selection in Winplot. Test the communication using Cutter Control to determine which port you are using then launch Winplot and click Design>Cutters>Setup Cutter. Then select your cutter and the plotter-cutter setup screen will populate and you can...
  8. FineCuts VS WinPlot

    Unfortunately you will not be able to use FineCut with your Summa cutter. Winplot is a good, albeit very basic, cutting program that works with the older Summa cutters like the T750 you are using. Other programs like FlexiSign, Signlab, etc. will work as well if you have access to either or...
  9. Summa Cutter - T Series

    I just googled the version 25 that it said it installed and it's showing this as an educational version of the software. Is this an educational or trial version, Ginger? If not, did you check under the file menu to see if the Summa menu is listed? Sometimes the plug-ins and macros don't function...
  10. Summa Cutter - T Series

    If you're using the CC2021 version then there is not a plug-in available yet that will work with that version. If you're using 2020 or older then the toolbar will appear under the file menu in Illustrator under the file name "Summa". Best regards, Phil Johnson Airmark Corporation...
  11. Need Help Plotter problems, suggestions needed.

    Hi Ranel, Have you tried using the yellow OPOS filters to see if you can get better mark recognition on the reflective materials? I have attached a document with more info on that process in case you wanted to give that a try. Also, cutting prismatic or diamond grade reflective is not a...
  12. Need Help Summa D60R

    Thanks for the reply and additional info. If your material is indeed 1mm thick, that would be just under 40 mil thick and the D60 is only capable of cutting materials up to 30 mil, even with the thick materials blade. I think this is one of those situations where you're trying to do something...
  13. Need Help Summa D60R

    Good morning, How thick is the sandblast stencil you are trying to cut? Most companies I work with that cut sandblast stencil use the more powerful tangential cutters which are designed to cut and track heavier/thicker materials. Also, as was previously mentioned, you will need to use the...
  14. Summa S2 T160 cut off sheet problems

    I'm not making any assumptions and am trying to provide information that is helpful to all users who may have the SummaCut machines or to those who are considering getting one of the S One and S2 models. The SummaCut Series is now discontinued anyways so information on those units will be...
  15. Summa S2 T160 cut off sheet problems

    Hi All, Just wanted to clarify that the S2 D Series DOES have the automatic cut off knife just like the S2 T Series so you could use that feature on the S2 D Series if you wanted to. The new S One D Series model does not have the cutoff knife so if you're referring to that when you say...
  16. What is the real world benefits of the OPUS-CAM

    The cutter comes with a 15' USB cable so 20' with a booster/repeater should be fine. I wouldn't go much longer than that, though, to avoid any communication issues sending files to the machine. Another thing to note is that you have to run the Camera Control software in the background with the...
  17. What is the real world benefits of the OPUS-CAM

    The OPOS Cam has faster mark recognition compared to the OPOS X sensor(1 second per mark versus 4-5 seconds with the sensor) and is able to detect registration marks more consistently on materials with high reflectivity or mirrored finish. The OPOS Cam models do need to be connected via USB...
  18. Summa D60U Windows 10

    What cutting software are you using to send files to the D60U? If you are using Winplot you may need to change your port selection in the cutter setup menu to the correct USB port. This is especially important if your new S One D75 is also connected via USB as well. You can use Summa Cutter...
  19. new printer info

    What kinds of applications did you have in mind for the printer and do you have any other equipment like a cutter that you are already using? Also, do you have a preference for the design and RIP software that you would like to use? Once we all have a bit more information on what types of...
  20. Suggestions Looking for suggestions best plotter

    Hi Tracy, One of the Summa S2T75(30") cutters would work well for this application. The machine has a dual servo drive system to work with heavier films and should work well with the engineer grade reflective materials that you will need to cut. We have special pricing for Signs101 members on...
