I have a client we're putting a proposal together for that has a large number of locations and possibly some serious production volume of cut vinyl RTA decals.
We could be looking at needing to produce between 2,000 and 28,000 cut vinyl decals a month (possibly more). This is beyond anything I've done in the past and will require hiring additional staff and possibly (probably) some extra equipment.
For those that are doing high volumes of RTA cut vinyl decals, how many decals per shift would you expect an employee to produce?
The decals would be a line or two of text, probably in a script font so a moderately difficult weed compared to simple large block letters. Font size would be in the range of 2-3" tall and 30-75" wide. There would also be a larger size of 22" x 30" and possibly up to 22" x 75" which could include both the text as well as simple logo or symbol. All single color vinyl.
Also given the possible volume of these things, we're looking at getting a bar-code system set-up to track an order through production and integrated it into our shipping. I obviously don't want to have to run the vinyl through a separate printer to print a barcode on them, nor apply a decal to them as it's a possible point of error to do it manually. Are there any flatbed or friction fed cutters out there that can print barcodes on the job as they cut?
