Core Features & Capabilities

High-Performance Cutting

• Maximum Cutting Width: ~72″ (~1830 mm) — ideal for large graphics and wide-format vinyl. 

• Cutting Force: Up to 600 g downforce for handling a wide range of materials. 

• Cutting Speed: Up to 60 ips (~1530 mm/sec) for fast throughput.

• DC Servo Motor: Provides consistent and responsive motion control. 

• Tangential Emulation Mode: Helps produce cleaner, more precise cuts — especially for small text and intricate shapes.

Advanced Contour Cutting (LX-Only Enhancements)

The LX version adds the enhanced AAS II Contour Cutting System which includes:

• Automatic registration mark detection — reads printed markers to align cutting paths precisely.

• Segmental positioning to correct skewed prints and enhance contour accuracy.
