Enhanced functions for higher productivity

The enhanced features improve your work efficiency and increases productivity.

Copy with ARMS

It supports the copying of the cutting data including the ARMS control command for making multiple copies of the downloaded data. This allows multiple copies to be created without a PC, significantly improving work efficiency. The media can be also separated by each row with the cross cutter when the cross cut function is enabled. It provides high-productivity and highprecision print & cut.

Built-in network interface

The USB 2.0 (High Speed), RS-232C and Ethernet (10BASE-T/100BASE-TX) are built in as standard. Multiple interfaces enable various connections such as a single PC to single plotter and multiple PCs to multiple plotters. The Ethernet connection also allows sharing of the cutter over a network.

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.

Auto-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.

Intuitive operation

Settings can be easily set up using the large 3-inch LCD and tactile control panel. It is icon driven and supports multiple languages.

Dual configuration

Save two (2) user settings with eight (8) condition settings for each user. A fast access key allows quick switching between users. One cutter can be shared by multiple users or for multiple purposes.

2 tools configuration for cutting & plotting (Option)

It holds both a pen for plotting and a blade for perforated cutting. The tool is automatically switched for cutting and plotting as needed.

ARMS (Advanced Registration Mark Sensing system) to fifth generation

Enhanced ARMS, improved precision cutting and productivity in Print & Cut application

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 operation of the registration mark searching.

Expanded cutting area

The new ARMS 5.0 expands the cutting area to include the area outside the registration marks. This increases the production efficiency by reducing media waste.

4-point axis alignment

This feature compensates for any direction on the X-axis and Y-axis using sophisticated algorithms. This leads to more accurate registration and improves the reliability and quality of Print & Cut.

Segment area compensation

A 4-point axis alignment is performed for each segmented area.
In Normal Mode, this is performed by reading the marks in the middle of the feeding direction for the entire graphic and then cutting the entire graphic, providing high-precision alignment for long length Print & Cut applications.
In the new Sequential Mode, contour cutting is performed sequentially in each segmented area. Media movement is limited to the smaller area being cut, improving accuracy and tracking for heavier media or media that has been laminated.
*  Normal mode is available when Graphtec Studio, Cutting Master 2/3, or Plotter Controller software is used.
*  Sequential mode is available when Graphtec Studio (ver. 2.1.200 or later) or Cutting Master 3 (ver. 2.1.211 or later) is used.
*  This function is available in firmware version 2.10 or later.

Multiple-mark compensation

When the design is printed with the matrix copy function, the action of reading the marks and contour cutting is repeated for each copy. It significantly improve productivity for Print & Cut.
* This function is available when the Graphtec Studio, Cutting Master 3 or Cutting Master 2 software is used.

Auto sensitivity adjust

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

ISM (Intelligent Scan Mode)

The ISM incorporates a new scanning algorithm that not only expands the cutting range of compatible media, but also reduces scan times and increases mark scanning success.  Registration marks are also detectable on colored media and textured media, such as glossy laminated materials that were difficult using the conventional method.
*  Media must be within the specification in range.  Marks may not be detected due to poor print quality or media surface.
*  This function is available in firmware version 2.10 or later.

Supports ARMS commands

Cutting Master 2 / Cutting Master 3
Graphtec Studio / Plotter Controller

The special command for controlling the registration mark sensing system (ARMS) is also supported. The setting parameter for ARMS can be set from the PC using the software.

Improved application software

Including improved design application software (Graphtec Studio) and plug-in software for Illustrator and CorelDRAW (Cutting Master 3)

Design application software

Graphtec Studio

This is an easy-to-use application software for creating original designs. Images can be easily created by using the program icons that are arranged around the drawing area. It has enhanced features such as auto-shapes, shading, and editing functions. It can also configure the cutting conditions and other functions on the plotter.

Importing EPS

It now supports the importing of files in EPS format. In addition it is possible to import files created with popular design software such as Adobe Illustrator and Corel DRAW into Graphtec Studio.
* This function is available in ver. 2.1.200 or later.
< Main Features >

• Creating designs using auto-shape, various line types, etc.
• Editing the characters using rotate, mirror, fit-to-shape, etc.
• Auto-trace (supports bmp, tiff, jpeg, etc. image formats)
• Supports the connection and switching of multiple plotters
• Import EPS, DXF format files and other raster format files

< Supported OS ^(*) >
Windows 10 / 8.1 / 8 / 7 / Vista , Mac OS 10.6 to 10.10

Plug-in software for Illustrator & CorelDRAW

Cutting Master 3

This plug-in software sends the cutting object created by Illustrator or CorelDRAW to the plotter, and can also be used to control the plotter. It has a variety of features such as registration mark creation, matrix copy, tiling, weed settings, tool conditions, cut job settings, and others. It is easy to use and enables you to get the best performance from your plotter.

< Main Features >

• Editing the position, expansion, and reduction directly within the preview window
• Creating an outline of the character, recognizing a line width and an overlap
• Output by a layer or color, and inserting a line for weeding (horizontal, vertical)
• Splits an object into small pieces by the tiling function
• Supports the connection and switching of multiple plotters

< Supported OS ^(*) >
Windows 10 / 8.1 / 8 / 7 / Vista , Mac OS 10.6 to 10.10
< Supported software ^(*) >
Adobe Illustrator CC2015/CC2014/CC/CS6/CS5/CS4, CorelDRAW X7/X6/X5/X4

Plotter control software

Plotter Controller

This software can control various settings of the FC8600 from a PC, improving work and operating efficiency. This controller can be started from the plotter driver when the print operation is executed by the Print menu of the application software. It can be run concurrently with the design software so the design and cutter control windows are open to smoothly run a series of tasks from image design to cutting media.

< Main Features >

• Configuring the cutting conditions
• Executing the test cut
• Setting the parameter for the ARMS and executing the ARMS functions
• Setting the rotation of the data (to match the direction of loaded media)
• Moving the tool position
• Setting the origin of the plotter
• Operation with the short-cut keys

< Supported OS ^(*) >
