The FB400 machine has a 60 x 45m cutting area. It has a removable top section, which allows large sheets or rolls of fabric to be cut, without pre-cutting the material into smaller sheets. This unique design also allows faster unloading of finished pieces, versus the closed side design of other cutters. The machine is supplied with a laser cooling system and a fume extraction system. The simple design is easy to maintain and repair.

MICRO VIDEO CAMERA


Our optional micro video camera and electronic optical software (EOS) locates logos and aligns cuts accurately. The camera locates "registration points" above, below, and next to each badge. This data is used to detect and compensate for any distortion in the fabric. The is system is designed for use with badges produced by multi-head or schiffly embroidery machines, label weaving or printing machines, or other machines creating colored logos.
