  1. For everyone thinking of purchasing a Summa, specifically F1612, don't.

    You’re both saying the same thing about each other at this point. I’ve been seriously interested in a flatbed for some years now and have been digging deeper into it the past few days, and this feud just keeps popping up in the middle of everything. I get it… My summa roll cutter was trouble...
  2. Gerber Edge FX Print Quality

    It sounds like you design as a vector but are exporting as a raster? Vector doesn’t have a set dpi. Export in .ai, .eps, .pdf. Maybe you are already, just don’t understand why there’s a dpi setting on your vector aside from coming out of the rip.
  3. Best Plotter for 21mil MX Graphics

    Really wish I would’ve bought my cutter from AirMark to get service like that. Glad to hear they got you setup!
  4. Best Plotter for 21mil MX Graphics

    Sorry to hear. We have tons of issues with it, but I cut 4 kits yesterday, and aside from accuracy issues, the kits are fully acceptable. Just for how much money spent on this cutter to be told it can do something, it doesn’t do it well, and too much time is spent picking up the slack by hand...
  5. Best Plotter for 21mil MX Graphics

    Our sheets are 30” x minimum of 60”. If I cut them into two sheets per kit, I’m throwing away even more money. I definitely am lacking trust in my S2T lately. It’s fucked up almost as much as it’s done right. Yea, maybe user error, guess I should’ve bought it from a company who knew more about...

    Yea I acceleration needs to be slowed down. I cut pretty slow as is.
  7. Best Plotter for 21mil MX Graphics

    it’s definitely exhausting to waste so much time and material reprinting kits that already have tight margins. I haven’t run into the sliver issue, I cut one pass, that could be why, two pass would make sense to get lam all over. I’ve heard it all now, I also try to get all my parts on a...
  8. Best Plotter for 21mil MX Graphics

    Was hoping to hear your solution to the problem. Sounds like a flatbed is the way to go. Would rather not use a feed in and out table and take up all that space while still not cutting all the way through. Maybe next year we’ll push that direction. Appreciate everyone’s info
  9. Best Plotter for 21mil MX Graphics

    I’m going one pass on the cut, but not having an issue cutting through. If I go 2 passes at lower force, it never cuts in line the second pass.
  10. Best Plotter for 21mil MX Graphics

    Yes to paneling. If it wasn’t, it’d ruin the whole sheet. Usually messes up the first section of cut and I can hand cut to save the sheet. I’ve hand cut more graphics than I’ve ever hoped to. Only transparent from substance is brown backed, have no issues with other transparents, but for Moto...

    Hey guys, Looking for real life experience on the best cutter to run Substance vinyl for MX Graphics. Currently operate a fairy new Summa S2T160 w/ 5 rollers and have had nothing but issues, as others have had in this line of work. Yes the Summa can cut through the vinyl no problem, but it...

    Hey, been seeing a bunch of your thread replies and what not about how many issues you had with your summa. I am pretty much exactly where you were, only, just dealt with it for the last 3 years. Tired of wasting time and material, and wanted to see if you found a better solution. Thinking about...
  13. Summa S2 T Series Dog Muck

    stxrmxn Did you ever get this fixed? I have all the same issues you're having. I was told this could handle mx graphics no problem. Had it about 2 years and I have more issues with it than not. I admit maybe my issues come from user error, but it'd be real nice if it weren't so fuckin...
  14. What did you pay for Caldera??

    I've heard of it and tried to get a demo of it when I was starting out but it never surfaced. Also haven't heard anything about it as far as functionality anywhere. I didn't dig too deep once I got my hands on Caldera.
  15. What did you pay for Caldera??

    Hey guys, When I first got into printing 2 years ago I paid 1200$ for Caldera's lightest setup with no features. Now I'm looking at getting a new printer and they are trying to charge me for all kinds of things like Caldera Care and driver switch. Looking to ask me for another 2500-3000$. I...
