New to the printing game. Just bought a new large flatbed. I need help finding someone who can help cut jigs in the Miami, Fl area.

Does anyone know a reliable source.
Thanks, Tom

Jig for what ?? You need to learn how to form real questions and communicate. Afterall, that's the business you're in.

Thanks Gino.
I need a jig for printing on coroplast
24 x12 inch pieces
I want to be able to set the pieces into the jig & hit print
So I want to find someone that can make a jig to fit multiple pieces at a time.

I have a Mimaki JFX200-2513EX printer

You can print full sheets on that rig then cut apart. Need more details on what you're trying to accomplish.

If you're just printing squares and rectangles, like he said, just print it, then cut it apart on your cutter or just use a sharp instrument and do it by hand. Are you doing thousands or a handful ?? Will they be double sided ?? Full bleed ??

Only time I need a jig, is if we get a substrate pre-cut and want to print it afterwards. However, that's generally on large size items.

Perhaps your use of wrong terminology is causing your problems or maybe not knowing how to use your equipment properly.

To be more specific... I have a job to print several 1000 signs made of coroplast
Yes the printer can print jigs - unfortunately I do not have a cutter at this time. Nor do I want to cut that many pieces. Hence wanting to get a jig or template

I am looking to automate the program process so that my employees can simply remove the printed signs and quickly replace them with blanks. So this is really all about setting up a repeatable process.

So I am looking for someone to cut a metal of acrylic template so that I can fit 12 signs on the bed a print.

Does that clarify?

Ahhh...okay now I get it. Thank you for the clarification. In Six Sigma we use the term Poka-Yoke. It is Japanese for error-proofing. That concludes the lesson for today.
