How the Auto-Feed Digital Flatbed Cutter Works


The cutting process combines digital file preparation, material feeding, registration, and controlled cutting.

Step 1: Prepare the Cutting File

Create the required cutting paths and registration marks in compatible design or cutting software. Confirm that the cutting file matches the printed artwork.

Step 2: Load and Align the Material

Mount the roll material on the media bracket or prepare the compatible sheet material according to the selected workflow. Set up the conveyor and vacuum hold-down as required.

Step 3: Detect Registration Marks

For printed contour-cutting jobs, use the CCD camera to identify the supported registration marks and align the cutting paths with the printed graphics.

Step 4: Select the Cutting Mode

Set the required cutting force, cutting mode, and processing sequence. Test the settings on the actual material when introducing a new substrate or multilayer construction.

Step 5: Start Digital Cutting

The cutter follows the programmed paths to perform full cutting, kiss cutting, perforation, or marking according to the selected configuration.

Step 6: Inspect and Collect the Finished Material

Check contour alignment, cut depth, edge quality, and material movement. Confirm that the finished pieces meet the application requirements before running a larger batch.

For new materials or complex printed graphics, a sample test is recommended before full production.

QR Code Supported

One‑click to recognize the cutting job from those saved in the U‑disk by scanning the QR code which is pre‑printed, while not requiring to connect to computer. This function is especially helpful to increase the productivity when there are many files stored in the U‑Disk. U‑disk / offline function is able to send same cutting job repeatedly.


Fast Registration Marks Detection with CCD Camera

With a dedicated software, it is able to generate contours in one‑click, and it is easy to add registration marks. CCD camera, used in combination with related software is applied to detect the intricate contours fast. Problems caused by position error of human and poor quality printing are solved. CCD camera is applied for wide varieties of medias.


Grating Ruler

Measure the distance between blade tip and material surface in real time, the cutting depth is adjusted in every 0.01mm by the controller in real time according to the value of distances measured. Subsequently, the blade travels up and down as material surface goes up and down in order to keep the same cutting depth at any position of that tool path across entire working size. In short, the cutting depth is consistent, you will not see different shades.


Multiple Software Supported
