summa

Best plotter I've ever owned. I had a monster pounce job last week that had to be done in a few days. I bought another summa (same model) to help complete the job. Now selling one because I don't need two long term. This machine is less than a year old and purchased from Diversified Display...

Hi all, I've been using the Summa S160D for almost 10 years. I've just realised that I've probably done something wrong. Please refer to the video below: On this video, the cutter read all the mark first then cut. My S Class will read the first set marks (left & right) and second set marks...

We have been having massive issues with cut size inaccuracies on a brand new summa s2 160 T cutter, hp latex 560, and sai flexi. We tested the same jobs through winplot and got perfect results. However, when doing it with flexi the cut sizes range from 2mm too big to 1mm too small on small cuts...

Not sure why this is happening. But a while back I updated the firmware on this unit so we could utilize the 'panels' feature which works very well. All jobs have been cutting beautifully, no matter the length. All of our settings in Flexi cloud are printing correctly, and the cutter reads...

I think my old age is getting me now. We have a S2 t-160 series cutter and the blade we have been using needs changing. I see where Airmark recommends a 45° blade as standard, a 36° for reflective and a 60° for sandblast medias. I was under the impression a 36° would be the best for universal...

Hi! I have a problem with a cutfile. I'm printing on an Epson s80600 using the ONYX Rip and then cutting with Summa. I can see all the cut-paths (both vertical & horizontal + circles) in Onyx and it doesn't seem to be anything odd. The vertical and horizontal path are flex paths and the circles...

We have a Summa S2160T. We print groups of labels back to back. Nothing fancy just rectangles with rounded corners about 2 to 3 inches wide by about 15 to 16 inches long. We group them in 2 row groups to make cutting them down easier. The past couple days I noticed about every 4th or 5th group...

This plotter has been sold!

Hi all, I'm wondering if it's possible to lay one summa barcode next to each other (side by side). I'm trying to improve the accuracy over very small stickers. Instead of copying them individually to hundreds (not accurate over certain length). I prefer to make them as a set then copy the set...

I'm running 1,000 4x11" decals. I'm using my HP Latex to run the decals on a 54" wide roll. I find it kind of hard to peel off the decal from the liner. I'm just wondering if anyone has tried turning the sheet of label with liner face up and scored the back of the liner on a Summa cutter? Or...

Hi Guys! I'm having some issues with my Summa. We have a few products that have always cut fine however lately they have been constantly goiing out. The cutter is clean it's length calibrations are fine. The only thing i've noticed is that we set it to a lower speed for more accuracy press go...

I recently purchased a Summa cutter to do decals and labels. I print on a HP Latex printer. We print contour cut, circle, square, rectangular labels etc. What stock do most people use for smaller indoor and outdoor labels? My customers normally ask for a thicker liner. I have used the...

When printing a file with a cut path in Onyx RIP we specify Summa or I-cut for our cutting department. once we specify what one then it has to be cut on that machine. My question is there a way to print the file and have Onyx setup and export BOTH cut files so that when the print gets over to...

Looking for some help. I have a customer looking for 3x2 magnets with clipped corners. I have a HP315 and cutter bundle. I am wondering if my cutter can cut the Diggimaxx after I print on it. If anyone currently does this, what type of knife pressure are you using. Thanks for the help ahead of time.

Hello, I'd like to kindly request some assistance from my fellow sign people: I need to convert the "Flex Cut" settings in my Flexi over to my Onyx Thrive (Summa's term for "Through Cut") May you please take a look below at the image denoting the settings in each and assisting me with the...

Hello there, Any time I am trying to plot large jobs (Usually under 200" long) whenever the OPOS cam reads the registration marks, sometimes it will work all the way around, and sometimes the camera stops halfway through, especially when the plot is sitting directly right on top of the...

Hey guys, I just purchased a brand new Summa S2 75T about 2 months ago. Ever since Friday it no longer reads the pinch roller positions and is not usable. I have 2+ rolls of laminated material with summas registration marks needing to be cut and another 8 rolls to cut. I'm loosing my patience...

Hey guys, first techy question here. I recently discovered our cutter hasn't been updated from the original firmware. Always just used it with OPOS, crossed my fingers and hoped it cut correctly. Mostly tracked off and ruined a ton of media over the years. Well I did the research, updated the...

Hy guy ! I 'm looking for help just got a SUMMA DC4 for 6 month now and can't get a good printing on white vinyl. I hope i'll find here some SUMMA thermal printer users (if there is any left) to help me on this printer. There are two major problems that i'm facing every use: A light banding...
