SC5000 DIGITAL SHEET DIE-CUTTING AND CREASING

Truly revolutionary

A new type of automated cutter – filling a massive gap in the print finishing marketplace. 

There is currently no other model available worldwide, that offers 100% reliable high-volume auto feeding, along with a dual tool head for both cutting and creasing. The SC5000 is a seriously professional and productive machine, that is loaded with professional production features but takes up only around 1 square metre of floor space. It even weighs-in at around the same low price-point as its  nearest rival! SC5000 offers automatic sheet cutting & creasing for lightweight card packaging P.O.S & kiss-cut sheet labels.

MARKET POSITION: 

Automatic sheet cutting & creasing, for lightweight card, packaging, P.O.S and kiss-cut sheet labels – in a compact and mobile device.

KEY POINTS:

  • Digitally cut-through any shape sheet card item – with SmartTag retention – on up to 350 micron media
  • Kiss-cut sheet labels
  • Cut speeds up to 960mm/sec
  • Digital process means no more costly dies or wasted waiting time
  • Auto feeder stacks up to 1,000 80gsm sheets. Up to 340mm (13.38″) x 520mm (20.47″) and custom sizes – with self centering function and airbladelite© separation
  • ColorCut Pro – Production Studio software included
  • QR code/Job Library retrieves associated cut files – even for mixed job batch sessions or rotated sheets
  • SmartMark registration delivers incredible accuracy – enabled via the supplied ColorCut Pro software

OVERVIEW:

The SC5000 blends the dual tool cutting and creasing abilities of flatbed technology with automatic sheet fed functionality – all within a precision engineered, compact free-standing device with an easily manoeuvred ergonomic space saving design.
 
This latest addition to the ColorCut family combines many features of digital cutting and creasing taken from ColorCut’s flagship flatbed range, including the high-speed functionality of its automated sheet fed models but, at a more affordable price point.
 
Complete standalone operation – even with a stack of mixed jobs
  • In today’s busy print environments, the SC5000’s 8th generation Vision3 CCD camera offers an unparalleled production advantage, able to read and instantly retrieve cut files for every sheet on the fly! It can accept a mixed stack of jobs, cutting one after the other in a seamless and uninterrupted flow.
  • Its dual ‘Grip and Drive’ feed system holds the media during cutting, on both sides of the cutting head, enabling it to cut closer to the media edges than most other types of sheet cutter.
  • The revolutionary cutting strip, based on the superior cutting mats used in Intec flatbeds was developed to offer the optimal surface for both cut-through, creasing and kiss-cut work, suiting both of the production tools. With the cut sheet being in constant high-speed motion, minimal SmartTags are left in the cut lines to retain the item in the sheet – leaving a tidy and manageable stack of finished, complete sheets in the catch tray.
  • High-capacity auto feeder works in conjunction with air blade separation and automated jog function, to present every sheet perfectly for the cutter, every time.
  • ColorCut Pro Production Studio software is supplied as standard and offers remarkable digital productivity for the designer and machine operator alike.
