Debate surrounding whether it is best to print stickers, decals and signs first and then contour cut, has been around for decades. Like so many aspects of sign production, it's horses for courses. If volumes are low and combination machines can be left to cut while remaining unavailable to print, then print 'n cut in one device may suit. However, where production volumes are higher, using separate print and cut devices makes more sense. If a lamination step is required, it makes complete sense since the '1-2-3' of print-laminate-cut is carried out with maximum efficiency on 3 devices.
Until the end of September, Mutoh Australia is including the ValueCut VC2-1300 cutter/plotter with every ValueJet 1638UR purchased. Printed multi-up signs and stickers come off the printer and straight onto the cutter, freeing up the printer for the next job. Mutoh claims this represents a saving of around $7,000.
