cutter

Hello there, I'm excited as a new member to up my first post. I'm a graphic designer and recently opened my own sign/print business. I feel the severe need for a cutter/plotter. I'm confused with all the different models available in the market. Apparently my choices for a 40" cutter are ...

I made this video a while ago, but thought I should share it with the group. It shows how I use the effect --> contour cut to make an outline of some text for some lettering. It allows for me to create a layered set of outlines to cut on my laserpoint 24 and create some RTA (ready to apply)...

I own a couple of graphtecs and roland cutters. I have not owned a summa yet. I was reading on another post and many praises for the summa. I'm wondering what makes a Summa better then a Graphtec/Roland other then the customer service? Is it the speed? accuracy? ease of use? special functions...

I have a Roland XC-540 for sale in terrific condition. Has been fully serviced by Supplies Unlimited in Wakefield, MA and can be picked up or delivered if you're located in the New England area or we can crate and ship the unit. I am anal about all of our machines, so this unit has been kept...

I recently got me FC8000 back from a service tech who replaced the motor. Since I have had the cutter back in my possession I can not get it to save my speed settings for any of my conditions, so I am forced to manually set the cutting speed after the machine finishes mark sensing for contour...

Hey Guys! I have a Mimaki CG130-SRII plotter and have been having some issues lately. When I go to cut a line of text, regardless of the font or size, the blade will lift up for a bit during the first letter or two and come back down part way through the text or letter. At first I thought this...

I am in the market for a cutter ideally 42" but could go for a 30". I live in NJ so anybody wanting to sell locally or ship it to me let me know. Thanks!!

I was hoping to get any information on whether the Evolution is THAT much better than the Javelin. A few of our employee's past companies had the Javelin and said it works great. Im just wondering if the Evolutions are ~$600 "better". We currently have a Fotoba, and several rulers from Image1...

Hey all, I have a Canon IPF 8300s with an automatic cutter and during the past two weeks, the automatic cutter has stopped working in my jobs, forcing me to press the cut button on the machine after each poster. In the Plug In and printer settings in Mac OS Lion, the cutter settings are set at...

So we have finally gotten past all our problems with our FC8000-160 except we can't figure this one out. We have tried a new blade, got a new cutting strip, tried different setting (messing with overcuts, tangent emulation, force, circle resolution), updated the firmware and cant find a...

Hi folks, I really wanted to see the designs for my newest lantern project reach people who had a cutter/plotter and so I figured this would be a good place for a plug. I made this Quasicrystal Star Lantern with a Craft Robo Pro but they can probably be made with just about any vinyl cutter...

Hello, we are looking for a plotter/cutter that we will only use as a full scale, pen plotter. We require tight dimensional accuracy and skew. We will plot onto clear mylar at 48" minimum. Any thoughts on the good, bad and uglies? Thanks, Rick

I have a graphtec ce5000-60 vinyl cutter and it does a fairly good job with the exception of closing some letters and shapes. I have read a couple posts about getting signgo and using the overcut setting. I currently use Illustrator with the Cutting Master 2 software plugin to cut vinyl. Just...

Hey guys! I am looking for a used flatbed plotter. What I need is something that can import a file with cut paths and reg marks that I create in illustrator. This program must be able to read my registration marks and not create its own around my printed image. This is because my printer...

Hey guys! I'm new to the signs101 site and just wanted to say thanks in advance for all the questions I'll probably end up bothering you with. At the moment the only question i do have is if anyone knows somebody trying to get rid of a flatbed cutter. What I need is something that can...
