Intec Digital Flatbed Cutters

Intec Digital Flat bed Cutters

Intec Digital Flat Bed Cutters are a very special and unique product line. These machines are cutters that emulate die cutting with a cartesian cutting process. The system is complete with special software that makes it super simple to create files with die lines for cutting or creasing. A template manager is available to further streamline the process of creating boxes and special cut programs with ease.

This special software will automatically place QR codes on a print ready document. These sheets can be blind loaded into the flat bed cutting machine and the QR code reader will intelligently identify the job and orientation before starting the run. The machine will move from sheet to sheet for continuous operation or a sheet feeder is available for unattended operation.

• FB1175 Flat Bed (4-Up Production)
• FB775 Flat Bed (2-Up Production)
• FB550 (1-Up Production)

These products allow for complex cutting patterns to be done without requiring a die. Typically a die line is sent to a die manufacturer and production cannot start until a die arrives. With the Intec Digital Flat Bed Cutters there is no die required and production can start as soon as the sheets exit the printer. 

Perfect for light to medium run production of two and three dimensional items, the ColorCut series offers a range of machines to suit the cutting and creasing of virtually any form of print, from cardboard packaging for high-end products and protective cartons – to synthetic point-of-sale items and kiss-cut adhesive labels. The ability to digitally produce single items on demand, also makes the ColorCut perfect for prototyping.

Bespoke, market-leading software brings many advanced features to aid design and production.

Intec has invested in producing a reliable, class-leading system which is intuitive and simple to use. It seamlessly integrates with the leading graphic design packages (Adobe® Illustrator® or CorelDRAW®) enabling you to use the design software you already know.

Cutting your jobs is effortless, as sheets are placed on the cutter, your jobs are retrieved automatically enabling ColorCut flatbeds to be used by any member of your team, ensuring additional and unique profit-making opportunities without added cost

Intec ColorCut Pro Special Cutting Software

ColorCut Pro. Is a stand-alone application with a plugin, that can be installed on remote computers anywhere within the workflow environment, to perform contour cutting of paper card and synthetics. Intec offers a complete turnkey solutions because we manufacture both the hardware and develop the software for our range of ColorCut flatbed machines.

For creatives. The core application enables artworkers to generate barcoded or QR coded cut files with associated job numbers, as an integral part of their design, for instant job recognition and file retrieval.

For print finishers. The ColorCut Job Library enables users to retrieve previously prepared cut files without the need to launch Adobe® Illustrator® or CorelDRAW®. This is typically used in a production environment, remote from the design studio and may be further enhanced if using the optional Server Station.

Software development. Intec currently offers two modes within its ColorCut Pro software, both delivering the same operator functionality but differing in the way its generates and reads the data. ColorCut Pro automatically generates either a barcode, for the FB550 which uses an on-board optical sensor - or a QR code for the FB775 and FB1175, with on-board Vision3 CCD camera, to read and cut digital files
