Upgrade Suggestions?

Hello all,

I am looking to upgrade from my Graphtec CE6000-60. I mainly cut MX decals up to 20 mil thick, but as low as 10 mil. Even with a 60 degree blade and max force, I feel that the cutter is operating at its limit.

I am also looking to move onto a 54" wide platform rather than printing everything in 24". My budget is around $5,000 and am looking to buy used. I'm looking mainly at the graphtec FC8600-130.

Any suggestions or feedback?

I agree with the others, FC8600 is the best next step. l don't run enough plotted vinyl jobs to justify the FC8600 but it's the only machine I want to upgrade to. Plus the learning curve is basically zero, just better features like the cut-off knife. (yes the $4k more is worth it just for that.)
