summa

Hi everyone I was just needing some help. I am wanting to sell my Summa 54" DC5. However I have no idea how to even begin to price it. It is in excellent condition and has been very lightly used. I own a super small sign shop in Rogersville, MO. About 3 years ago I purchased an HP latex printer...

Hello. Today I printed some lettering then proceeded to cut them. There are 7 crop marks per side of the graphic/lettering. I used OPOS paneling because of it's accuracy (4 marks). After not finding the 3rd mark for a reason I know, I went to restart the job from the beginning. But now what...

Oct 2019 HP Latex 315 (54" printer). Total Media printed so far is 10,042 SF / 932 SM. We just installed the first new inks from original setup. (Kept those cartridges because they still had ink and felt they could still be utilized. ) Bought mostly for printing HTV for sports uniforms and...

We have a sudden issue with our D140 not lowering the Opus sensor at the start of a job. When you first send the job and it moves the head to the left it is not going all the way hence the sensor is not being lowered and it subsequently will not find the targets. Any ideas of what the issue...

Hi there, I have a 2020 Summa F1612 with a bunch of upgrades for sale. We are purchasing a Zund. The machine has served us well the past two years but looking for continued workflow improvement so decided to go with a Zund S3. Everything is in working order and currently in operation. Here are...

I cut a decent amount of sheets out on my ucjv300-160, blades still last me a decent amount of time as I only cut 1-2000 sheets per month, and some die-cut stickers. so most of my cutting is still just contour/kiss. The Summa initially sounds like the better option to me, mostly because so many...

Hi guys I would like to know how to set up a repeated pattern every 24" for printing so that customers can buy rolls/panels and overlap the seams to continue as much as they need. what I been doing is resizing the patten design to my preferred size then filling up the document in photoshop then...

Hello everyone, I wanted to see if anyone here has or knows of someone / some place that is selling their Summa F Series flatbed cutter. We are running a Graphtec plotter, but that really doesn't work well with long runs of print, amongst other things that can't be achieved on that machine. We...

I'm using a Summa cutter to do some circular cut decals. I'm printing onto a 6.0mil thick vinyl stock. Can you someone give me some suggestions on how to setup my Summa to Flexcut the decals? I currently have the blade set with a 1/4 clockwise turn and the Flexcut set to 350g. Increasing...

Please Delete thread. Problem solved

Hey guys, This is driving me nuts. I have my artwork done and put a cut box around it with a .02 radius on the corners. Everything looks perfect and checks out but when I open in in production manager and then send it to the plotter (hp branded summa, then again to my big summa T series) the...

Hey there, I had to change the blade in my summa s2 t160 and I thought I had it tuned in a cutting well, now it is leavings what I would call vinyl shavings in the cut and not cutting corners crisp, I used a clean cut 60 degree blade cutting oracal 651, i have never had this issue before on this...

So, I upgraded to Flexi 21 from 19 and can't figure this out. My print/cuts on Opus and Opus Extra mode for some reason comes out 15/16" off the actual cut path. Flexi Tech support can't even figure it out they blame summa lol?. I upgraded on my cutter the firmware to the latest. Printer is a...

Its...one of those days I can't figure out why our T160 can't seem to stay in alignment for this small sticker job and hoping someone on here can tell me what I should be doing differently. I ran 100ft worth of stickers last week without any issues so Im pulling my hair out trying to figure...

Hi, I have a summa D60R and the clamp that holds the blade in place has cracked. I have tried glueing it but refuses to hold the two pieces together. I have been in touch with the dealer here in the UK and they say its not worth repairing as it will cost over £700 to fix it, £400 for the part...

Hi there, at my workplace I use a Summacut D160R to cut things printed with a HP Latex 365 but recently it seems to be getting worse at cutting where it's supposed to. For example - just did a vinyl print of about 2m length, I had a 10mm bleed on it, but from the start to the end it still...

Hello guys I've been using my Graphtec Ce6000 for almost 7 years now, mostly for print cut and small detail colored vinyl cutting, this machine is built like a tank and ive only changed the blade. I want to upgrade to a newer cutter, had my eyes on the fc9000 and the S2 T (never use a summer...

Hello, I'm running into an issue with our Summa S2 T series where the OPOS system is unable to read the plotter registration marks. It was working perfectly fine for one job then the next job was having lots of issues. It was printed on 136oz optically clear lam, which made me wonder if it...

Just got our first Summa S one 120. Everything worked great on our regular white vinyl (1 meter width). But then we tried to cut thicker and wider material with UV printing and it was horrible (photo is in attach). We tried everything: new knife, reduce speed, change thru-cut settings - nothing...

Hello everybody I own a Summa S 120 T cutter and i'm facing a problem after i had to unscrew and lift up the tangential clamp (loosing 4 scews see pict) to remove a tangential blade wich was blocked alone. After mounting up everything the cutting is not horrible in sawtooth. Can anyone know...
