I will need to look into the EFI as well. Looked into Roland, Mimaki etc.. Price is there but they are slower outputting machines, than what is needed in our competitive market
Update on the D140 issues I was experiencing. Had to take a few jobs to a guy near me that has an F1612, great machine and a huge help. With my D140, stumbled on the OPOS sensitivity. Last operator had it turned up over 100. Turned it back down to 60, recalibrated. Ran 1 job in sheeting mode and...
We are in the same boat MikePro. The more I am reading on the R series along with out great experience with the Latex 360, that is the long term solution I want. But the price tag is holding us back right now
Looking to move into rigid production in house. We have been sourcing and the numbers are right. Any insight into the FB scitex? Or make the jump into the R1000 Latex? I have been told they are stopping service in 5-7 years on the scitex. Which makes me skeptical on buying new.
Have had a...
We run 430C frequently. The color swatch we built in Illustrator comes out purple when the ICC profile is turned off to match the swatch in adobe. We have to turn ICC profiles on to match. Another work around would be building out of K only. I believe it is a 70% or 80% build
Spoke with someone near me today that had similar issues with this on his F series 1612. He was having registration issues and misreading of OPUS marks out of the blue like I am experiencing. He was running windows 7, like I am. Upgraded to windows 10 and the issues went away. Going to try that...
Yes the blade is over the registration mark. It is sporadic, it will read the registration marks then stop reading the registration marks on a random panel. I spoke with 2 summa techs this week about it and I quote from both "we have not seen this issue before, we suggest cleaning the camera...
Need some serious help. under the gun and I can not figure out what the problem is with our D140. Cutting a job that is segmented into 10 18" sections. Reading the XY not using the OPUS barcode. It will go through the first few segments, then not read the registration marks. Will unroll and...
We currently only run a HP 360 for flexible media and sub out all of our rigid media. Looking into upgrading to a flated uv printer & cutter/router. Preferably with a flexible roll cutting option.
I have been looking at Scitex FB, used and Summa Cutters. Any opinion on these options versus...
Thanks for the input. Put a metal pipe clamp on the spindle and got us operational to get a couple jobs out the door. Only doing short runs 15 ft or less. Kept the core from walking but still having the material walk from the drive roller. Running a long run of backlit today, 60+ feet and I...
We run Top Value Fabrics 54" & 63" banner in 13 oz and 18oz without any issues. Have been running on 10 pass with high heat for 3 years without fail. I have tried the Duratex & ultraflexx banners and always had issues with head striking and bunching.
i have tried running multiple substrates (8 mil poster, Avery 2105, 7mil Backlit and 18oz banner), with the same result.
Every time we load we are getting the roll direction not detected error, while the substrate is tight.
Possibly a bad sensor?
In need of some help here. We have started experiencing a serious substrate walking issue. From initial loading of substrates we are good. During the print process, the substrate starts walking to the left, in some cases over 12 inches, including the core on the spindle. We cleaned the drive...
