Cutting plotter CE6000 series, Price Performance Leader

The CE6000 series sets the standard for high performance, low cost cutting plotters. It is equipped with professional-level features such as registration mark sensing and perforation cutting for producing a dividing line of labels or packaging mock-ups. The advanced features of the CE6000 series improve your work efficiency and increases productivity.

 

Reliable quality and consistent performance




















Reliable long-length tracking

Reliable long length tracking

The new media stocker ensures a more stable media feed.
A brake system is built in to prevent uncontrolled roll media unwinding. It assists the correct loading of heavy roll media.


Reliable long-length tracking
On the CE6000-120/120-AMO, the pressure of the center push roller has two settings to suit all media. It prevents media lifting without leaving a trace mark on the media and provides for stable long-length cutting. 

Reliable long-length tracking The optional basket provides long-length cutting even further. 

Automatic paneling

Automatic paneling

Auto-paneling is a new feature that automatically splits long-length jobs into smaller pages that are cut sequentially but without any gaps. The result is a seamless, long-length finished job. Media movement is limited to the smaller page being cut, improving accuracy and tracking.

Supports perforation cutting

upports perforation cutting
Perforation cutting is performed by controlling the cutting force instead of blade up/down movements, increasing throughput. This is perfect for cutting separation lines for tearing out labels, fold lines for POP signs, and others.

Improved ARMS5.0 for high precision cutting

Auto mark detection

Auto mark detection

The first registration mark is automatically detected within a wide search area; this eliminates the need to manually move the sensor near the registration mark position.
Subsequent marks are automatically located which improves the operability of the registration mark searching.
Expanded effective cutting area

Expanded effective cutting area

The new fifth generation ARMS system expands the cutting area to include outside of the area enclosed by the registration marks. This increase the production efficiency by reducing media waste.
Auto sensitivity adjustment

Auto sensitivity adjustment

The sensitivity of the registration mark sensor is automatically set by measuring the reflection level of the mark and the background of the actual media.
The mark can be detected when the color of the mark has a reasonable contrast against the background. For example, a white mark can also be detected on a coloured background.
Copy with ARMS

Copy with ARMS

The COPY key has now been added to the control panel to allow fast access for making multiple copies of the downloaded data. It also supports the cutting data including the ARMS control command for processing multiple sheets without a PC.
Reduce detection time

Reduce detection time

Sequence of scanning the mark is changed for significantly reducing the mark detection time. Mark detection is possible at 1/2 of the conventional model.


Intuitive operation and easy to use

Easier to cut in simple operation mode

Easier to cut in simple operation mode Two set up menus, Simple and Normal, are available and can be chosen by the operator as desired.
In the Simple operation mode, selecting the type of media also sets the necessary cutting conditions.

Major features for creating design

Shape
Shape Any shapes can be created easily using drawing tools that are the Line, Rectangle, the Circle/Ellipse, Polygon, Curve/Arc, and etc.
There are available 68 shapes that are preset in Auto-shapes drawing tool.
The shape also can edit easy.

Shaded function
Shaded function It can easily paint solid colors on a object of the illustration and can also fill in a gradient or pattern.

Editing function
Editing function It can be edited using the functions such as the crop, the join, and etc in each of shapes on the overlapping objects.
The Modify tool icon will provide options in the side panel to re-shape the objects.


Line style
Line style The line can be created easily using drawing line tool. It can set configuration of line intuitively to plot such as style, corner, end cap, and color.
Text
Text The text created and edited very similar to using a word processor.
The text can be configured with font type, style, size, and etc using the Text Style option.
Text can be placed on shapes and paths using the control handle on the text box, the text will follow the path of the shapes.



Plotter settings
Plotter settings The cutting condition in the cutting plotter can be monitored and configured from the software.
Cutters that are connected to this software are shown in the side panel. The cutter used for the job can select from available cutters.
The cutting condition such the type of tool, speed, force, and etc can be monitored and set using the Cutters option.
The cutting condition can also be assigned to a line color using Configure Cut Job option.

Tracing bitmaps & Offset paths
Tracing bitmaps & Offset paths Tracing;
It is a way of taking objects, generally bitmaps, and making an outline of the object. Bitmaps particularly have to be traced since a cutter only understands line and vector paths, and not bitmaps which contain dots (or what is called pixels) that create the image or photo. This feature is great for converting bitmap logos to an outlined (or traced) object as shown in the example below. Since bitmaps are generally objects that need to be traced.

Tracing bitmaps & Offset paths Offset Paths;
It create new lines (paths) in specified space from the reference line. Creating an Offset Path can really enhance a design. It can also be used to create a cut line for Print and Cut applications. An Offset is an outline, or inline, of a shape or object.

Major features for cutting operation
