Graphtec announces latest FCX4000 flatbed cutting plotter

The line of flatbed cutting plotters from Graphtec GB has been extended with the introduction of the latest FCX4000 model. It replaces the existing FC4500 machine and incorporates many of the advanced features found in the previously launched FCX2000 cutting plotter but is a lighter and smaller version. Developed primarily for the garment and accessories decoration sector, the FCX4000 is equally at home when processing materials used for traffic signage, sandblasting, packaging, point-of-purchase display and printed label/sticker applications.

Available in a choice of two sizes (the FCX4000-50ES and FCX4000-60ES), the machines have respective cutting areas of 660 x 488mm and 976 x 660mm, an identical cutting force of 600gf and a maximum cutting speed of 750mm/sec. Both cutting plotters are supplied with a range of accessories as standard. These include a high-quality steel cutting blade, water-based fibre-tipped pen and a creasing/scoring tool that will enable jobs to be cut and creased from the reverse of the sheet being processed to avoid damage to the printed surface. Graphtec’s latest own-brand Graphtec Pro Studio and Cutting Master 4 design and production software programs are also included as part of the package.
