Graphtec FCX Series Flatbed Cutting Plotters and Accessories

Product Details

• Stronger Media Hold Down. Distance between the holes has been improved to 20 mm , as a result, FCX2000 Series provides stronger suction power to hold heavier and thicker medias down.
• Improved Vacuum Suction! holds media with the use of external electric vacuum pump. This is the preferred method for heavier and thicker media. The Redesigned Cutting Table has increased hold-down capability by its increased number of vacuum holes. This redesign is significantly valuable when cutting smaller objects that have less of surface area.
• Dual tool holder with 500 gf on tool 1 and 1,000 gf on tool 2
• Provided tools suitable for many applications.
  • The FCX2000 series has 2 tool holder in the carriage.
  • Using 2 different kind of tool allows to do a different job.
  • without exchanging a tool at the same time. it can increase work efficiency.
• Tool Holders & Cutting/Creasing Tools. Dual Tool Holders which can hold a cutting blade and creasing tool — to produce creases/folds and cuts on the same run. Maximum Cutting Force - Tool 1: 500 gf, Tool 2: 1,000 gf.
• Intuitive 3.7” LCD display. Onboard control and settings are simplified using the equipped 3.7” LCD (240x128 dots) and tactile control panel.
• Lope for cutting blade (PM-CT-001). This standard accessory helps to easily adjust the extruded blade lengths for the PHP33 and PHP35 blade holders.
• Offline Operation.
• Enhanced ARMS (Advanced Registration Mark Sensing system) for improved productivity of P&C applications.
  • Equipped the ARMS (Advanced Registration Mark Sensing system)6.0.
  • Easy and accurate cutting of pre-printed images using the cutting master 4 and etc.
  • Enables higher productivity of POP, stickers, and prototype cartons.
• ARMS Copy function. After data is sent the first time, it can be copied multiple times without a PC. In the FCX2000 Series, the first four marks are scanned on the first sheet, and only the first mark in subsequent sheets. This improves productivity by shortening scan detection time.
• Reverse Side Cutting and Creasing Method. Cutting and creasing of pre-printed packaging graphics is possible on the reverse (non-printed) side of the sheet. This method of reverse side cutting and creasing prevents damage and marking of the printed side. This option is currently available using Cutting Master 4 or Graphtec Pro Studio software with the FCX2000.
• Expanded Contour Cutting Area. This included function expands the print and cut area to include objects outside of the registration marks! Production efficiency is enhanced and media waste is reduced.
• Supports Standard Crop Marks. Contour cutting pre-printed media is also possible using “standard crop marks.” This operation is available with the included Cutting Master 4 plug-in workflow.
• Reversed Color Registration Marks. Registraiton marks are detectable when there is sufficient contrast against the mark and its background. Ultra glossy and reflective media offer challenges for accurate registration mark detection. With this reversed color output, the sufficient contrast is brought back for the ability to contour cut pre-printed ultra glossy and reflecting sheeting.
